I'm going to take advantage of L&L's latest deal of buy one DVD set and get another one free. I'm buying Harry Lorayne's Best Ever series, but I'd like opinions from those of you who have the sets I've listed on what to choose for the other.
I am of intermediate skill and my main interest is cards and close-up with coins and other sleight of hand manipulation. I am considering a trip down the road of mentalism, though. I've narrowed my list to: Richard Osterlind's Mind Mysteries Richard Osterlind's ETMMM Alex Elmsley's Tahoe sessions Bill Malone's On the Loose Jeff McBride's World Class Manipulation Thanks, all!

All of Jeff McBride's manipulation is awesome if you're willing to dedicate the time to practice.

Osterlind's Mind Mysteries is an excellent series. Simple, straightforward, and very effective effects. Be sure to watch the performances before you watch the explanations (duh), because you will have a "V8 moment" when you see how most of them are done.

Bill Malone's On the Loose has a lot of stuff at your skill level ie sponge balls, matrix, id deck, Three Card Monte, bill switch, tricks that you will go back to after you spend a lot money on other crap. Bills presentation is the best high energy, but no mentalism.

I took advantage of the offer too. I got confirmation that my order was shipped, but the online invoice showed that I was billed the full amount, even though the offer code is there too (both sets were L&L produced and on their list). Anyone else have this problem? I contacted them and will let you know how it goes.

Update: Just got a reply from L&L (do they have fast customer service or what) The online invoice doesn't reflect the discount, but the billing one does. I was only billed for one set.
