Super Sharpie

MagicSmith

(Based on 2 reviews)

Imagine asking a spectator to think of any number. You write a prediction on the back of your business card. When they say their number, you turn over your card and it matches. Every time! Does magic get any more direct than this?

Now you can predict a spectator's freely thought of name, number, date, age - even the amount of change in their pocket. The list goes on and on - and your reputation will only grow and grow!

All this is possible with the Super Sharpie. The Super Sharpie is a revolutionary redesign of mentalism's most potent weapon. It's so incredibly simple to use, you'll be performing mind boggling mental miracles just minutes after practicing with it.

The Super Sharpie can be used as a regular Sharpie - because it is! Feel free to hand it to spectators to sign cards - they'll never discover its hidden secret.

There's a built-in precision gimmick that allows you to make sharp, distinct predictions with clarity and legibility. Best of all, you'll do all this right under their noses - while they're staring at you. Since it's all built into the pen, there's no fumbling. You start clean when you pull the pen out, and you end clean when you put the pen away.

It's self-contained, self-inking and undetectable, and it's always ready to go. You'll make your predictions on playing cards (even plastic cards), business cards, and virtually anything else that you can write on with a regular a Sharpie pen.

In the 15 minute companion video CD (included), you'll learn expert technique that will get you up and running with your Super Sharpe immediately. Comes with Super Sharpie, video CD and illustrated instructions.

Full disclosure-I am a former employee of Chris Smith of MagicSmith. I have read the previous review and I feel a rebuttal is called for. I don't feel the previous review is an accurate representation of what myself and many others feel is an extremely well made product that does a very specialized job. I believe that performers in need of this utility item need to find a preferred version of the type of product that this item is, and I understand that this particular version may not be the right tool for everyone. The fact is that the product, as designed and sold, is not what is reviewed. He did not receive anything even remotely resembling the product he reviewed, and so his criticism lies with the quality control of the shipment, and not the item itself. Essentially, the product is very well made and does exactly what it was designed for. Its' design is ingenious and very user friendly. Having purchased a multitude of similar items, it is nice to have one that duplicates an actual Sharpie pen, with none of the mess that other devices of its' type fall victim to. The DVD provides full instructions on how to refill the Sharpie if it dries out. Replacement parts are available, and Chris has some of the best customer service in the business. The mistake, while regrettable, would have been quickly addressed by Chris, if he was contacted. If you are the type of performer that uses a swami, this is worth a try.

Good concept. Not so good product. The pen received had silver metallic ink not black as in the advertisment. Silver does not show well on the business card. The ink was dried. The silver cap (without pocket clip) does not look like the black pens normally used. The metal silver band around the top of the pen looks a little strange. I attempted to convert to black ink which did not work. Probably if it came in black ink I would give a better rating. The CD-ROM was informative and gives instructions on refilling the ink. As delivered it is not usable.
