Hello everyone,
Having recently lost my job I am reluctantly having to sell some of my Tenyo. I own number 84 from 100 of the Deluxe edition of Tenyoism. This edition is signed by the members of Tenyo's creative division Lubor Fiedler, Angela Carbone, Hiroshi Kondo etc and the great Richard Kaufman himself. The 2 volume edition is in PERFECT condition complete with all bonus items and tricks inc the props for 'See-Through Card' autographed by Shigeru Sugawara. I can of course provide pics and more details on request. The original price was $500 and I wouldn't be looking for anything less. Please PM me if interested. P.S. I live in UK but happy to look into shipping costs for overseas. Thanks. Macmac |

Hi Richard,
No one is more sorry than me. I have been unemployed for a few months now and have 2 small children so some things are more important. |

I've kinda been watching, and this is the first one I have seen for sale.
Wishing you and your family the best Macmac!!!! Ed |

Sorry to hear that, seems many are experiencing that same thing.
You should not have a problem selling that Deluxe Edition. Good Luck Richard
It's An Illusion Unless I Can't Fix It Then It's A Reality.

Thought I'd flip this to the top of the chart. Has it sold Macmac?

Thanks for the bump up!
No...still for sale. I had 2 points of interest, USA and Germany, but I live in UK and shipping price is proving expensive. I am going to get in touch again with one of the potential buyers. Fingers crossed! Please get in touch if interested. Cheers! |

MacMac: Sorry to hear about your job loss-I have been there. Have you tried ebaying the Tenyoism book. The book is regarded as a classic, and there might be someone willing to compete for a copy.

Macmac, I hope you'll get things sorted out soon, and I hope you are able to sell this book which shouldn't be that much of a problem.
About Ebay, I just checked last week (because I'm planning to sell some of my magic collection in the future) what the fees are ... they take more than 10% of the selling price (including shipping!), which I personally think is a disgrace. Try posting it on the Tenyo Facebook page macmac, if you haven't done so already of course. |

Ebay take 10% of the selling price, free to list your item but charge you for advertising if it sells,they give the buyer a poor exchange rate ( if paid in another currency ) and PayPal will take a cut.

Thanks everyone! I think I will try the Tenyo Facebook page first.....
Last resort will be Ebay... Cheers! |

Yes eBay is going to have fees but the audience you will be exposed to is much greater and your chances of selling are likely higher.

It's a lot of money, still I am surprised there are no takers. Seems to be reflective a general cooling in the market for Tenyo collectors, no?

Can you share how much the books sold for?

I'd be curious, too.

It appears to currently still be listed on the big auction site. If you search on the UK version of the site, it should be easily found. Hope you're able to find a buyer soon macmac.

Hello everyone,
Tenyoism has now been sold. Not the big auction site but a private sale from a new member on Magic Café. On their way to a new home in NZ! Many thanks for all your support. Much appreciated! Macmac |
