Riggs Butterdfly Pad is only $30.00!!! And refills you can buy yourself for about $2.00!!!!!

Yes, - and the ParaPad costs twice as much as John's Butterfly ... and finds happy customers nevertheless. Smile

So, I think before judging the pricing you should take a look on what you get ... which nobody did who is complaining the price at the moment, right?

No offense meant, mate.

I was fortunate to see this piece of kit the other night. It is a beautiful idea and so devious! Perfect for both the close up and stand up worker.

So you would be happy to pay £75 for one performance? I very much doubt you would, so don't come over all high and mighty saying £75 is reasonably priced until you know all the facts. I'm sure Mr Nardi or someone familiar with the trick will jump in soon and confirm the facts.

WOW!! Please tell me this is a joke?

For £75.00 you are getting the handmade gimmick which should last a lifetime and you should be good for around 100 performances before you need to look into buying any refills.

This sounds great Peter and you do release good, usable products. My only question is could you give a rough indication of cost per performance once the initial 100 whatevers are used up? Basically, the running costs if you wouldn't mind.

thanks

Hi Sean,

We are talking pennies per performance.

This sounds great Peter.

I am yet to find a impression device I am happy with and I have all of those mentioned above and more.

In my opinion there is always too much of a risk/ gamble, as we are having to rely too heavily on how the spectator writes - no matter how good your audience management is.

I have therefore always opted for peek devices.

I really hope that this one is different and at last we have the option to buy a pad that we can be 100% confident in.

High and mighty? Don't make me laugh. If you can't afford it it's not my problem. If you think Peter would charge 75 pounds per performance you really need to take a reality check.

@ Pegasus: Rather than confronting it would be better to avoid/ ignore certain remarks.

Hopefully ‘The Ghost’ is different.

Hi Guys

Just to put you in the picture. We are going to be selling 20 of the first batch to non Blackpool attendees. The first bite of the cherry will be to our email list members. We will be putting the product up for email list members in one of next weeks emails. (Please note these 20 will be dispatched to customers on the first day of the Blackpool Convention) once the 20 units have sold we will put the product up on our site for pre-Oder from the second batch which will be early march.

Best Regards & Thank You All For Your Interest & Support

I'm wondering if this uses a principal that is similar to the Telethought/Telthought II in a different design?

Then again I can't see a window on there - but if Tony is making these... God Ghost looks good as the p**k is very fast and the performer looks nearly surrounded.

It's not like the Telethought, They have their business card in an envelope and at no point do you look at the face of their card.
