To those that have Pre-Ordered and received this Awesome effect have any of you received your DVD yet?
I ask this because the Effect was to be released in Mid June and here it is at the end of July and still NO DVD. I have emailed Silly Billy (David) and he refuses to respond to my emails. when I sent an email that I wanted to purchase this effect he or someone emailed me the very next day. I ordered it then and I received the effect a few days later minus the Change Bag. I emailed regarding that I had not received it and someone responded promptly to my email that they would be sent in approx. 1-week. I did receive the Change Bag and I am very pleased with the effect as I have gotten very much use out of it so far. I just wonder why no one is answering my emails and why NO DVD yet. If anyone has any information please let me know as it would be greatly appreciated. Rodney

I've owned this since June and in early July I asked David in an email about the DVD, he replied with...
"I still plan to put a dvd together. But that wont happen until end of august." I am personally not too worried about when the DVD arrives. I've worked the trick in about half a dozen shows so far and already it's becoming very much my own, with new bits and touches added each time I perform it. It's one of my favorite pieces to perform - always different each time you do it and just a LOT of fun with the kids. The included printed instructions are plenty to get you going, and the video on his site is a great help too.

Well I was the one that pushed david on letting the silks out early . He was not prepared to sale them as he had not gotten the DVD completed. BUT I assured him that performers could read and do their "own" routine without the DVD to get started. David has been out of country for three weeks as he went to FISM and stayed in the UK for some other projects. My routine that made with Davids silks will be on my up coming library show DVD that will be released in two weeks, but it is a performance only DVD.
I am sure once David can catch his breath he will get the DVD complete. But again I asked him to release the silks early and he did . He originally was not going to release until sometime in late August. ken |

Those of us who bought the silks early got a great price and got to be first to use this routine, which is going to be a true classic of kids magic. I'm not sure what a DVD could teach that I haven't already learned in two months of performing this.

I am really not concerned at all about the DVD. When and if it gets here, cool. But more can be learned from performing with the silks, than any DVD could teach us. One thing I DO hope David offers, is replacement silks for a discounted price to owners of the effect. All it takes is one greasy-handed kid holding the silk to really ruin these nice props.

Not very magical at all!
but a cute little story I guess that could get some laughs to the correct kiddos or drunk adults. |

I too have been doing this trick all summer with absolutely great results and responses all around. The well written and very detailed instructions were all I needed to start performing this effect. I really don't think it needs a DVD, unless of course you just want to perfectly mimic Silly Billy's routine.

I have had similar props on my hmmm list for a long long time.
I can see this would work like magic and great entertainment. hmmmmmmmmmmm actually this could be part of a mentalist routine...or as I see it great moments as the focus is on the audience member. The most important part of this post is that much is learned by actually going out and using a prop. Harris

I know I might sound hypocritical by asking, considering my previous comments in this thread: "I am really not concerned at all about the DVD" - but it's been many months now and I'm just curious - has anyone received their DVD yet? Last I heard, they were supposed to be wrapped up by the end of August - now it's December and I haven't received mine.

Well I just got official word from David (Silly Billy) that he has decided NOT to make the Princess in a Pickle DVD after all.
