Magic Shops- Scam Magicians
Magic Shops Scam Magicians !
If these words sound harsh I say this for a reason. Many magic shops selling magic tricks via the internet scam aspiring magicians. Now I’m not saying every magic shop scams aspiring magicians but many do. Some companies selling magic tricks online do provide quality magic tricks .
In case you are wondering how to find a magic shop that sells quality magic tricks I will show you how to do this in this article. Here are a few simple but important rules. Remember cheaper is not always better. When purchasing magic tricks always purchase the best quality. It would be quite sad performing a magic trick then the trick fails. What if the secret becomes exposed this could ruin your show.
If you purchase quality magic tricks this will never happen. Many of these so called magic shops care nothing about magic. These online magic shops exist only to make large profits. This type of magic shop cares nothing about aspiring magicians. Do you thinks this type of magic shop will survive very long ? It will shock you to learn these magic shops don’t know which magic tricks are the best for performing onstage or off.
Why would someone sell magic tricks when they know nothing about magic or magicians. Lets say someone wants to make big money online. They decide magic tricks are hot so they find a supplier order products set prices then place the products online.
Then they see their competition has lower prices so they decide to lower their prices. Cutting the prices reduces the profit so they make less money. The magic shop decides to buy a lower quality of magic tricks. Now they start making more money but the quality has gone down. Who gets burned you guessed it the unsuspecting magician.
There was a time when a magic shop was owned by a real magician. One could go into the magic shop to buy magic tricks. This local magic shop sold to many professional magicians.
Those days are almost just about over. The local magic shop must pay rent and many other expenses. If they wish to stay in business the local magic must charge higher prices then the magic shop selling magic tricks online.
Because this magic shop has so much overhead it has a very hard time competing with a magic shop selling magic tricks online. Its hard competing with someone who has almost no overhead.
So follow these simple rules to avoid getting scammed.
1.Always ask if the website owner is a magician.
2.Has he/she ever performed in a magic show.
3.How long has the company been in business.
4.Buy one expensive trick and see how the quality is. If quality is good this is a real magic shop.
So follow these simple guidelines to avoid being scammed.

Magic Tricks for Anyone Interested
Pulling off with Basic Magic Tricks:
Performing bigger magical tricks will never be a child’s play but pulling off simpler ones for entertaining private audience or to just enjoy the fun is quite easy. It is to be clearly understood that the key factors required for performing any magic trick is practice and presentation. Most of these basic magic tricks are so simple to execute and are not foolproof. But carrying it out sans the suspicion of the onlookers totally depends on the craftsmanship of the performer. Knowing the exact procedure of the magic tricks and dedicated practice is essential as all these steps must be done quickly and professionally within the few moments when the audiences’ concentration is diverted. After finishing with the practice, it will be helpful to watch few professional magicians at work and note the way they grab the attention of the onlookers. According to many, this art of controlling the attention of the onlookers is more important than performing the trick itself. Chattering while doing the ‘magic’ will keep the audience held away from what the magician is doing. It is never common for professional magicians to reveal their secrets about the magic tricks they perform. But there are thousands of step-by-step procedures and videos for learning simple magic tricks.
Few Magic Tricks:
The Floating Ring Trick:
A good trick to impress the crowd but requires preparation and practice. Soak a 3 to 4 inch long string in a regular cup with very thick salt water for an hour or so. The preparation is completed and all one has to do is ask for a ring from the audience, preferably the light weight ones. Now comes the ‘trick’ part; tie the ring to the string with the audience watching it. Tell them you are going to burn the string and the ring will ‘magically’ continue to float in midair. The ring indeed free floats even after the string is burnt. This is because the string disappears after it is burnt and the salt crystals which are not much visible hold the ring. Awe the onlookers with this simple trick which does not require much hidden steps to be done for executing the magic trick. Trying it out many times prior to the actual performance will be a good practice.
Water to Ice Magic Trick:
Though this is very simple one, with neat presentation it is sure to receive rounds of applause from audiences. Inform the onlookers that you are going to pour water into a cup and will make ice cubes from it instantly. This needs the use of opaque cup with sponge placed at the bottom. Place few ice cubes in it either prior to the performance or carefully during the magic trick. All one has to do is flamboyantly pour water into the cup and the sponge will absorb the water completely. Thus be inverting the cups there will be ice cubes instead of water. Thus magic tricks can be done easily by the interested individuals.
