This is to the Donster and everyone. You can read my post about the trunk when I asked for legal help but I will give a brief summary. There really isn't nothing new about subtrunks but this one I have designed is much faster. It doesn't have a T** T*** as others do. I originally designed this trunk to be done almost like the Pendragon's. A fellow Magi and I will be going into the illusion building business for a while. The trunk will of course come with itself, the bag, the restraints, and the curtain. The curtain has only three sides as it will fall much more graceful and if needed the illusion could be done surrounded if using a four sided curtain. Keep in mind that this is not the original routine of lift curtain, count 1, 2, 3, while lifting up and down, then lifting down to the waist to show transformation. Then, after more seconds have passed then setting the curtain down. This is a split second change. Lift the curtain all the way up bring it down to show the face and then freely drop the curtain completely. The whole change only takes 2 seconds, almost like the Pendragon's, but with no ripping through the curtain, as that is solely theirs.
I would like to know if anyone thinks if these would sell? Remember they are not the same old subtrunk or old routine. It is fast paced when the switch is done. Also, what do you think these trunks would or should sell for? Just give a ballpark estimate because I have seen many different prices. Also, take into consideration that the trunks could be varnished and polished like the rest, but I don't want that. They will appear to be a real packing trunk and to me that says a "real" trunk. I think the more things are dressed up the more an audience will think trick. The trunk can also be inspected by an audience member to prove it is solid. Of course if that person turns out to be a magician they will be fooled as they will inspect the t** for a t*** when there isn't one, if you get the drift. This will be the first item that we offer and we might offer some shadow boxes as well. We would probably sell on magic auction, a web-site, maybe here, and if all else fails e-bay, but that is the last place I would sell this. What is everyone's opinion? Thanks for your time, and yes I do take criticism very well as it helps bring the best out of people. Don't be afraid of hurting my feelings, I just want complete honesty. Thanks.

I'm not sure I get what is "new" about the sub trunk you are offering. There are many trunks that have the secret in another place.

It really isn't anything new but when I built the prototype I did not know of any others that had the secret something elsewhere. After I have done quite an extensive bit of research now I have found that my secret place is a much bigger space than the usual. Two people could go at once if they were 5 ft 8. Like I said it isn't new but it is much faster and we will be offering them at a much more affordable price than the others that have the same secret place. I hope this clears up a little but if not let me know and I will get back to you. Thanks.

Thanks Don. I will be keeping everyone informed here or in the section of selling illusions. We have already began the production of one that should be finished by tomorrow or Monday. We will have the pics up by Tuesday at the latest if nothing goes wrong with the camera. It's been acting up.
We still don't have a price right this second, but by Monday or Tuesday when I get the pics up, there will be a price list. We have now decided to offer different priced kits. An economy version for the trunk itself; a regular package with the trunk and curtain; a deluxe version with the trunk, curtain, bag, and restraints; and a super deluxe version with the trunk, curtain, bag, restraints, and the option of chains and locks to go around the trunk or the option to have the trunk lock with four locks and hasps. Every package is subject to change, but as of right now that's what we are going with. I will keep everyone posted as more develops. Thanks for your interest and support. Daniel To the Donster and everyone else. The trunk we will be offering to the magic community is finally finished. Look for a thread in the for sale of illusions. Look for LIGHTNING TRUNK. That's the name of it and will be the name of the thread. All info will be posted there. It will be posted this afternoon or evening. Thanks to everyone for their support and encouragement.
