Well I have to tell you I'm not happy with Sankey Magic. I asked if I could BUY more locomotion cards, I like to get the card signed by the spectator. I get an Email back saying they don't sell refills. If I were to order 2-3 products from them then they give me some. I think that's BU!! SH!T. I told them I had just about every trick he put out. I have lost some respect for Sankey.

Jeremy,
I am not at all defending the marketing / sales of Sankey, but I think simillar issues have been raised before (e.g. earplugs,, holy moley, various card bits..)
I think that the problem stems from the fact that a lot of Sankey effects have a full demo (which is good), but are fairly easy to deconstruct to a modestly experienced magician (bad!). Therefore people could watch the demos and just buy the refills rather than the product...
Then again, I could be completely wrong!
Respectfully
Charlie

Yea I understand, It just sucks. I told them I wasnt looking for ten cards, I was looking for at least 150. I guess I will have to start doing Fragile Harbor, just about the same thing.

Get your own decks made.
(I don't know how feasible this is.)
Or you can also get kind of the same visual by pushing the middle pip of a 7 from one side to the other, using dupes. of course they'll just assume you flipped the card end for end somehow.

I think Liam Montier has a similar effect to this on Ultraviolet. Draw a circle around the pip on the Seven. Then push it to the other side of the card leaving a blank space inside the circle.
