Ok. Lets just talk about how awesome Pure Smoke is then

JMMJ · « **Reply #26 on:** October 23, 2011, 08:22:54 PM »

From a few of my magician friends here, Infinity is definitely the new deck.
As for pure smoke, that just killed all the rest of my birthday ideas in one fell swoop, it looks awsome

My pure smoke is coming tomorrow!

Please do a un-boxing video, and a video of using it. You don't have to show how un-less you want to. This would be awesome

I understand, Curt. Thanks for explaining. Ev did say he was doing a video so I look forward to that

Pure Smoke does look pretty amazing, though why they gave away so much in that video that anyone can access I'll never know

Well they've been pretty open about the product

And unless you say "This trick is called Pure Smoke" there will be no way for them to find out what you used, and how it works.

austin · « **Reply #38 on:** November 09, 2011, 05:20:36 PM »

The only way for someone else to know is if they were a magician themselves or did some serious google searching.

I think with out serious searching people might know that it's a device. But they won't know how it works.

Yes but you can also pull up your selves and stuff, so that might lead them to a different direction.

E recently said on their facebook:

Double Your LTD Decks! Pasteboard Goodness Continues. Until Midnight Saturday, 11:59pm EST - we are giving all orders that qualify for a Ltd. deck - an extra deck. Keep one sealed and take the other out of its box to be used. Run them through your fingers and appreciate these things for what they are. This offer will not be repeated - so get twice the Ltd. gifts at the $150 level while you can. http://www.ellusionist.com/ltd-limited-playing-cards.html

It's front page on their website.

KPopFever605 · « **Reply #43 on:** December 08, 2011, 08:49:43 PM »

Oh gosh, I can't believe they have done this - anyways I've going to buy anymore. Oh well!

NathanCanadas · « **Reply #44 on:** February 27, 2012, 11:24:08 PM »

I have never bought a single deck from Ellusionist. Wow, you may think, especially since I own all D&D products (except for S&M v1-5) and all currently available T11 products and 100 decks... I think they release great stuff, but they are a little expensive IMO.

In what way do you consider them expensive? Their decks aren't outrageously priced and most have bulk discount pricing. They have exactly three decks priced over $7, and none priced over $8. They give away decks with the three-deck sampler and with a minimum $75 order. Compared to most custom card makers, these are a bargain. Hell, I can buy decks of Bicycle Masters for about the same price as Standard Bicycles in my area! There I pay the shipping, here I pay the sales tax - it's close to the same thing.

I'm actually surprised you got the T11 products before the E. With the reputation they're getting these days, most people turn to E before going to other big companies. I mean their decks aren't more expensive than the ones from T11. AND I think they give better prizes (free gifts) if you make certain amount of purchases.

Though I think both customer services are satisfactory and they've both got some good products nevertheless.

I don't find their decks expensive. I find their magic products VERY expensive though. JMO
@sxjy0109 - actually I bought ALL of T11's products as soon as I got into collecting, before I even knew about their reputation.

xZEROx · « **Reply #48 on:** February 28, 2012, 04:41:40 PM »

Aren't the T11 magic products priced about the same?
You should get yourself some E decks, just to add to your collection. Nothing special about handling if you're a magician or flourisher, but it's got some good design and background to them.

There's a lot of good, reasonably priced videos that are only available from E, quality magic, and some sweet gaffs/tricks/gadgets as well. Not all of it costs a fortune, either. Many of the introductory-level discs made by Brad Christian are very reasonably priced and give you a good magic foundation to work from - I personally found them to be invaluable when first learning.
