The above web site is not available by the way.
I find it fair that a video is not available to protect the routine but the fact that a high-level description of the routine described as a general sentence like "a card magically appears on the spectator's cell phone" (I have no idea of what the effect actually is) not being provided very suspicious. There is surely a way to give more information to potential buyers without disclosing the method.
I read here "once you see it then you immediately can do it", should I understand instead "once you read the blurb, then you immediately can do it"? I cannot seriously imagine that it could be the case with a careful choice of words.

All of us have been ripped off by tricks with inaccurate descriptions and when even the description of the routine is missing, this screams danger.
I know that Mr. Manor is a highly respected professional and I don't doubt that he only has honest intentions.
However, even if I am intrigued, I decided to pass on this until I can a slight amount of information telling me at least what sort of effect I am buying here.
Not only to avoid a potential dissatisfaction, but also to signify to the magic community that product releases should come with a minimum of transparency. I encourage creators to be slightly more transparent with their pitch, this would both help their sales as well as their customers.
When I know what I buy and am sure of the commercial value, I reward the creator by getting an original product even if the product is purely digital and Chinese rip-offs exist.
I have my doubts here because words of promise from a respected creator are not a good enough guarantee for me.
Mr. Manor, would you reconsider providing slightly more information for your customers to make an informed purchase?


Thanks mr Gaijin.
Try to watch the video here www.1amagic.com

A short answer: don’t buy it if you don’t trust me.

A longer answer:
There are thousands of other routines that you can
buy and put in your drawer.

Have you seen my Penguin lecture?
Do you know about the Invisible touches?
Talk To The Screen?
The mobile opener?
If you like my style and approach to mentalism
and magic than you know what you will get.
If you think that after 35 years of shows all over the world
I try to rip you off than don’t waste your time and
move to the next thread. I don’t force you to buy
and I respect your decision.

The routine good for professional magicians and mentalists
that have some humor in their shows.
It’s a sucker effect but I teach how make it
an important message for life.
I say all of the above in the video promo.

There are enough people that knows my creations
and many that are using routines that I published
and they trust me and bought it.
It’s in the market since 2019 and hundreds people
bought it.

There are no gimmicks. Once you see the routine
than you can do it in your show after 5 minutes.
(( It’s great for professionals or semi professionals.
It’s not good for amateurs))

You don’t have real name or a website so I also
don’t trust you 😀😀😀😀
All I know about you is that you are from India.
You don’t have a real name or a website that
I can view and tell you if the routine is for you.

What is the effect? I've seen reference to the selfie card trick but have no idea what it is. Is it a card trick, or mentalism? Can someone describe what happens in this effect?

Read the very first post of the thread...



I still have no idea what is being sold here... I see that it's along the lines of paper balls over head from the OP, but isn't that a magic trick? Is this a mind reading effect, prediction? Is it not a red flag to anyone else that it can't even be described? Guess it's not for me, whatever it is.

I hope that you saw that the original post is from 2019.
Hundreds of people bought it and use it in every show.
Ask Bruce Gold or Peter Samelson or Ken Weber or Bob Baker
Or Asi Wind or Dani DaOrtiz.
If you are doing corporate events or big shows and you want to have a funny
revelation of a card in an updated version of the card on the forhead
or the egg bitter than it’s for you. It involves many people
in the audience and use 4 cellphones (no apps)
If you don’t trust me and don’t know me, then
don’t buy it.
One day you will see it or someone will tell you
and then you will understand why I can’t describe it.

Thanks for your interest anyway.

Thank you for your answer. I do have a real name of course and a website as well but I don't feel confident that the Café is a nice enough place to reveal my personal details here since ad hominem attacks are very frequent.
From the other thread, I understand that this is not a mentalism routine at all but a sucker/DR type of routine, I wish this would have been clearer from the start.
Your routine would be best placed in my comedy show I suppose, I may consider it one day when in search for something new because I trust the opinion of a lot of your reviewers.
I am also happy to learn that I am Indian, I did not know that and would be interested to know how you concluded this Smile

It is a mentalism routine.
It starts with a short mind reading effect and then
it is a comedy mentalism revelation.
Trust me. I know exactly what it is.

You can send me an email to liormagic@yahoo.com

This is a fantastic trick. I recently saw it performed by another magician and everyone went nuts.
