Just placed my order... I just have to see this stuff for myself! Aaah - the Market Man's dream.... Powermagic - I'm one of the few who found your post useful. As soon as I see a 'register your interest' prompt - I stop reading and they can go whistle! Utter marketting and sales BS...usually.... |

The comments by Powermagic were a repeat of criticisms made way way back at the beginning of the threads back in July. No one has complained since. Me, I could give a crap personally about the SF web site. What I do care about is whether the product performs as advertised and is a good value. Card-shark has never disappointed me with his innovative products (Get Sharky, DD cards, etc) so I have a high level of trust that has built genuinely over time. If you find Powermagic's snide comments helpful more power to you - I don't.

It matters not to me when he wrote it - I'm responding as I just read it and I thought he made a good point and I was merely adding my two cents of a similar 'suspiciousness' whenever I see 'register.'
I'm equally happy that others don't agree. As it turns out, I think Card Shark puts out some good stuff. I've dealt with him three times and suffered poor service on each occasion - that he was quick to correct. But's that's a by-the-by and surely a coincidence. |

That was back on Dec 10. Doesn’t sound good, which is kinda disappointing. A lot was made of SF having a private Members area. Jeff Kaylor made similar promises for his UCCU device and then he got it going very shortly after saying that. I'm beginning to wonder if there will ever be a Member area for SF. Seems like it has been forgotten. Jim |

I'd like to see a members section- we are owed the privilege since we spent so much on it. That was part of the deal. I haven't received an eMail from them since I bought it long ago.

Guys, I was not online for a long time, had some struggles with several printing jobs, my health etc. but finally I can announce that we were able to open up the member area on our website http://www.sciencefrictionspray.com, where several bonus videos are already waiting for you. Sorry for the delay.
Feel free to discuss all your ideas there, as this is a restricted area, there should be limitations in helping each other out. Christian

Excellent! It might be a nice gesture to send an email to those who purchased. I checked the site each day for quite a while and finally gave up. I would not have known that the section was open if I had not checked this thread.
Nonetheless, glad to see that things are back on track! |

We kept track of all magicians who bought Science Friction using our online shop so that we would be able to inform them. (Nevertheless there were some purchases at conventions and now over some dealers, where we don´t have their contact details.)
I just opened up the Member area and you are the first one in. The others will get an email notification also, for sure.

Thanks, Christian. I enjoyed my first visit, and look forward to the successful future of the site. I am also glad to hear that your health has improved, at least enough to rejoin the forums.

Per discussion on the Genii forum - try using an SF card for Red Hot Moma/Chicago Opener.

Would be nice if they would market a trial size.
If it's as good as advertised, they will sell tons more to satisfied customers! |

Actually all they would need to do is to market at a low cost some sample cards treated with the stuff along with some suggested applications and instructions on how to handle the cards. That way people could see the results for themselves, and Card Shark wouldn't have to go to the expense of manufacturing new arisol sprays.
Plus, the size can they give you is enormous considering how little you have to use to treat a card and the fact that for an effect you're usually only treating one or two cards. But let me tell you, I just bought the stuff on the chance that it would enhance a trick I've been working on, and it worked like a dream. So I was able to ditch the double stick tape and use the science friction spray instead and achieve the same result. Plus the cards separate easily with no sound at all and with no effort. The treated cards don't gather lint so I can keep them in my pocket until I need to ring them into the deck, and not have to worry about the cards losing their grip. If you like to work with gaffs this stuff is fantastic. In my opinion it is as good as advertised. (Though the use of the word 'nano' seems a bit off, since in the states it's usually associated with microscopic sized particles that have been engineered in a certain way. I think they meant it as implying that you only have to use a tiny amount to treat a card-literally one light pass of the spray is enough)

Here at FISM we just release two spin-off effects called One Card Collector and Delicious Ambitious. The will be online available next week on my website. Come with treated cards as well as a streamlined DVD of Science Friction where only one trick is explained but all the other effects of Science Friction are shown. Each effect costs 15$, so this should really help to find out in an affordable way how good it is.
All the others who signed in for Science Friction will get an email soon so that they can get a treated sample card for just the postage. At least I am able to realize that soon.
