It's finally available for pre-order!
It's a limited edition package, with no indication as to how many there are in total, so it might be wise to order now if you want the entire package. http://www.houdini.com/includes.cfm?page=preorder.cfm |

Looks cool! How many DVDs are there in this set, do you know?

All Geno has ever had in print is "multiple DVD's".
Richard Kaufman mentioned that he felt $129.00 was an excellent price based "on the number of DVD's in the set", but didn't mention how many that actually was. Based on the amount of material in the book, a guess might be 5 DVD's? BTW, I shelled out close to $75.00 for the hard copy limited edition of "The Gardner-Smith Correspondence", and there haven't been any up for sale for quite a while......so even though it's just a .pdf file of the limited edition book, this is the kind of high quality stuff that's getting put into the limited edition package. It's pretty cool to read in Smith's own handwriting in the letter back to Gardner, "yes, I knew Mr. Erdnase". And Ackerman......hey, what can you say? |

Listen, bottom line-
it's cheap at almost ANY price it's released at. I HAVEN'T see the product, but I HAVE seen Allan, and he knows his poop. So, I'm grabbing a set in a few days, and I'll be bring along a portable dvd player to start watching right then and there!

At $129, it's cheap at twice the price if all it does is wash the bad taste in my mouth left over from the last chap who thought he could do Erdnase on video...

So they don’t know how many DVDs are going to be in the set yet, nor how many this limited edition is going to be yet, nor when about they will be sent out yet. But if you have seen Allan then you know he knows is poop and therefore you should send them your money now, no matter what the cost, just in case you don’t get the limited edition that you don’t know the limit of. Sounds a good idea to me! I have heard Allan say he is one of the better cheaper acts.
Kidding aside I think these will be great and I have sent for them.

Tommy, when I phoned about it I was told it would be a summer release. From what I heard of Mr. Munari I don't think the pre-order page would be up if he was not planning the release soon.

Me stupid?
I can't find any information, except for the video promo on the first page, regarding the product. I've searched for Ackerman, Erdnase, Expert, and NOTHING has come up regarding the dvds... Any help finding a link?

Allan sells his DVDs at his site but there is no metion there of these ones Ben. I would have a wild guess and say, that they don't know how many DVDs are in the set yet because they are not finished yet, and I guess that we will still have some time to wait before we get them.

Ben, the link in my first post of this thread takes you directly to the pre-order page.....or at least it takes ME to the pre-order page.....where's it taking you?

Addendum:
The link I gave above is definitely an order page, but it's NOT a secure order page from a secure server. Use this one: https://www.houdini.com/includes.cfm?page=preorder.cfm ....which includes the "s" after "http" and will give you a padlock at the bottom of your screen. If you don't see a padlock, don't enter your credit card information. |

If it's 10 or 11 DVD's, which it certainly could be if every single aspect of the book is touched on (and Ackerman's onscreen persona definitely isn't a "mile a minute" style ), then the limited edition package with all the extras is looking like somewhat of a bargain at $129.00.
I might actually allow myself to get a bit hyped about these DVD's showing up in my mail box. The last two times my expectations were up, they WERE met with Tony Giorgio's and Damien Nieman's DVD sets. Maybe the tide is turning on lousy, overpriced DVD sets. |

We're all very happy for the material. It has been mistreated so in the past.

Thanks for telling us that and welcome. August is not too far away.

That still doesn't give a clue on how many dvds are in the set Dr Watson.

NOBODY who posts here knows how many DVD's for sure....which part of that general piece of information is giving you problems?.......Sherlock.
(if you just "HAVE" to know right now, phone Geno and ask....then YOU TELL US) |

Hey h2o, in about as much time as it must have taken you to type your message, I called the shop and got an answer.
Shall we start the bidding at $50? |
