With a budget of about 75 dollars, I need to know what you all think I should get. I have nothing, as I have been doing only card tricks for about 2 years now. being a newbie to magic, I thought id ask you all. my obvious preference to the tricks are streetmagic/up-close magic items. also, I don't really care to be amused with the trick myself, I'm more concerned with the reaction of the audiance. what do you all think?
I was looking at the hummingbird card, liquid metal dvd, and the boa coin bender looks cool aswell. however, the bender will have to come later if I end up buying it. many thanks, ~Mike P.S. practice is no object also, the Healed and Sealed effect and the raven both look great ~Mike

If you are looking at small groups cards are great but I've also gotten great results with the mini chop cup and with the 5 inch Chinese Linking Rings from Royal Magic (about $10)

Depending on what you mean by medium sized crowds, it is hard to beat Cups and Balls.

How about the "Bite Coin" (the one you can eat a piece of it, and then replace it back to the coin by blowing)?
Also - there's the Invisible Deck. |

DVD's are better.
Buy a Stealth Pen, Invisible Threads, Coin Shell, Folding Coin, Sponge Balls etc. |

Good DVDs teaching sleights and some basic stuff, as mentioned by others.
