He now has a downloadable version he of the blades that you can pick up here:<br /><br />http://www.australianmagician.com/store/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=15<br /><br />How much you ask? $10.00. This is a great version of the blades. Just watch the demo vid. I picked it up and its dead easy and very safe. And yes, He was selling this as a download way before Kohler and Scott came out with their version. And as an added bonus, You don't have to sign a 10 page contract to buy Ellis' version. Which by the way is BETTER than Kohlers. Why is it better? Two reasons. It costs $800.00 less and you actually get to see the routine BEFORE you buy it.Ultimagichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15243855132571154353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-12689391652401053102010-06-11T12:03:43.404-07:002010-06-11T12:03:43.404-07:00And that picture looks like he should have little ...And that picture looks like he should have little things prying his eyes open whilst being forced to watch porn and violence and listen to Beethoven.Otishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02608667991679223991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-87328433751213213452010-06-11T11:53:31.719-07:002010-06-11T11:53:31.719-07:00You were ahead of your time.

These same talking points are being discussed on the big green weenie, with Brooks at the helm deleting negative comments and banning members who question the greatness of the almighty Kohler and thieving Grocki.Otishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02608667991679223991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-42031146559650263962010-05-27T12:14:48.843-07:002010-05-27T12:14:48.843-07:00You're taking on one of the untouchables in Ko...You're taking on one of the untouchables in Kohler. I've long felt his hyperbole goes well beyond reasonable salesmanship.<br /><br />Some say caveat emptor, but I would suggest he owes more to his customers.Intensely Magichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04671096850191679415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-43643852064210823632010-05-27T04:41:51.284-07:002010-05-27T04:41:51.284-07:00Continuing on the deliberately provocative line, i...Continuing on the deliberately provocative line, is it possible that those stupid enough to pay $800 for this are therefor going to have less money to spend on other magic, there by decreasing the chance of them buying lots of other magic. Surely if they're stupid enough to pay $800 for this then they are to stupid to present magic in a good way and anything that restricts them delving into more magic is a good thing.Tricksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18267229140734432283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-63121094532652966362010-05-27T00:50:15.194-07:002010-05-27T00:50:15.194-07:00Didn't think the word "fail" had to ...Didn't think the word "fail" had to be a philosophical term. <br />The bottom line is, the guy is charging $800 on a trick that you can get anywhere else for around $30. Just because the presentation is different doesn't mean I'm going to pay the extra $770 for it. This is what most people will call a scam.<br />The biggest fail here is the fact that Mr. Kohler will realize by the end of the year he has not sold shit.Salad Bowlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02174283979765992848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-84075705031706901862010-05-26T23:25:21.696-07:002010-05-26T23:25:21.696-07:00Yeahhhh.

I most surely take pride in the past, and tell stories honestly, but the "I'm so awesome" is just your own translation. But who cares. Don't read that guys blog, he's all bloated with dellusions of grandure. <br /><br />I actually read this as he's a failure in charging 800 for a typical blade routine. Many times he said "other than this blades" routine the man is pretty golden.<br /><br />I can't speak for the man, but I feel that was his only point. Takes a special type of cat. Scratch that. It takes a typical kind of salesman that does magic to justify such nonsense. <br /><br />Seems some really take the name of a blog too seriously. If it was called "This Weeks Magical Jeers", y'all would have read it the way did. The action in this case, not the man overall.<br /><br />Seriously though. Don't read that kids blog. He's got a serious insecurity problem of self worth trying to impress other strangers online. That's quite obvious.darkstarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12148339748488914475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-26009807596158768992010-05-26T16:50:48.928-07:002010-05-26T16:50:48.928-07:00I'm with Mike and can't see why you would ...I'm with Mike and can't see why you would make Bob a WMF. Just because you don't like the price, doesn't change the fact that he can charge what ever he wants. If you think it's too much then don't buy it.<br /><br />Not greatly surprising, this blog seems to have become more about attacking big names that the actual WMF's you used to have, you're certainly scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one.<br /><br />PS. Do you actually not know what Vaunt means (english is your second language as you regularly point out) or do you not actually read Tim's blog? If you're looking for vaunt, that would be Cardmans blog where he constantly rants on about how great he is, where as a simple glance at Tim's blog would show lots of general topics and lots of promo stuff for other magicians.Tricksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18267229140734432283noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8614376202473604721.post-24075599220188852222010-05-26T12:34:20.155-07:002010-05-26T12:34:20.155-07:00To be fair its absolutely clear what you are buyin...To be fair its absolutely clear what you are buying here so I have no problem with this from Kohlers perspective.<br /><br />Of course anyone who feels the need to pay $800 for a segment of somebody elses act needs to look long and hard at themselves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
