Getting this right would have no effect on the price. I believe Orange Tree is trying to make their mark by releasing unique and custom, quality magic. “Less is More” was a great release. This one misses the mark by not caring about a simple and specific detail. I get it… who cares? My audience is too dumb to notice and if they believe in my dumb magic, well that makes them even dumber. Haha! This sort of thinking repels me. |

I have now received two further Quarters that are not the Silver version but look very new and they do not fit either.
It seems that the Quarters that were in circulation are more likely to fit. I suspect that the lateral edge with the notches on fresh coins is not yet worn and thus prevent that such coins fit. So I have to file these two coins also to make them fit. Such hints should actually have been communicated on the $tamp website ! |

Have long thought about whether I post this or not, but have now come to the decision to do it:
I paid $39 USD for the "Stamp shipping" but the real shipping cost was only $14.50 USD and I think that's an outrage to get that high profit (24.50 USD) out of the shipping costs and fool the customer ! |

US shipping was I think 7.50 priority mail. I let the Stamp sit in my cart and received a 10% off to checkout the next day. So that basically paid for the shipping. Some carts will offer a discount automatically after you do not check out immediately. This one did off the 10% off and that is when I purchased.
I would still request a refund maybe Kranzo will see it and send you some money back. If that were to happen I would spread the word that his customer service has changed. IF this one had not been changing a ball to a coin I would just have purchased the ball thru hand. Viking is even selling a knock off version of their ball the hand. Those Brass ball thru hands can be bought for less than 25.00. They are all made in China pretty much anyway.

Nathan, quick question. Mine just arrived, and the gimmick was so tight that it took me over half an hour (and yes, I was following your video instructions) to 'unlock' it. There is a small circular indent/imprint on the head and the tail of the gimmick, which I suspect was caused by the ball bearing pressing so tightly against the gimmick after manufacture. By the way, I am afraid to reconnect the gimmick, as I'm not at all sure that I will be able to separate it again.

Thanks, Magic Dust. I had seen videoman's earlier post suggesting that, and had tried it, but it didn't work. I believe that mine is defective. Also, the indent/imprint I mentioned is not acceptable.

As some have had issues with their quarters fitting inside it would seem that these are apparently not all the same size. Yours would seem to be a little too tight Rosario.
I bought two of these and the slight indentation from the ball was in both of them. However, again from your description it sounds like yours is worse than what might be considered normal. Just judging by anecdotal evidence it would appear that earlier models had better QC than later ones. It’s unfortunate that such a fun little effect has been marred by what would seem to be completely avoidable issues. I hope you are able to get the issues with yours resolved quickly. |
