Review on 🎩 Unleash Your Inner Magician with the Magic Makers Ultimate Card Kit by Scott Pentapati

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Too many boring shuffles and tricks

This product is actually Simon Lovell's toolbox which is a huge collection of shuffles and card tricks with little or no card tricks. I bought it from a magic shop in New York about 2 years ago. This is NOT Ultimate Card Magic and it may contain 170 tricks but definitely not 170 real card tricks. It will just give you a lot of opportunities to make slates and wrong shuffles. However, there really aren't many old card tricks here. Most hobbyists just want a few basic tricks and faux-shuffling, not an excessive amount of faux-shuffling. If you want really great card tricks, get the DVDs of Colombini's Magic or Aldo Colombini's DVD. They are less expensive and usually contain around 10 tricks each, usually ranging from good to awesome. I have about 20 of these and they are fantastic. I learned a lot of great tricks from them (Colombini DVDs). Since I already had it I sent it back and had to pay postage which was $15.50! However, I contacted Revain and explained the problem. The company ignored my email request for postage. Fortunately, Revane realized the title was misleading and agreed to refund my postage. If you're into agility and wrong shuffling, you might think that's okay. However, I'm into card tricks and that's not what you're going to get. All you really get is Simon Lovell's tool kit, which isn't some of Simon's best work. Since the Ultimate Card Magic Kit isn't what you get, all I can do is warn others and give it 2 stars.
