Hi,

Does anyone knows where I can buy one of these? New or used.

If you have one and want to sell it, PM me.

thanks

Fantasma Magic sell them in their magic shop in New York City. They had plenty on the shelf last time I looked. Give them a call.

Phantom Clock is great. Classic Lubor Fiedler. Even when I figured out how it's done I still don't quite understand the mechanism to make it work.

Thank you and your welcome! Yes phantom clock is brilliant. I had the privelige to see the orginal prototype which was much larger and also much more deceptive too.

I would advise you not to buy a second hand like I did; the mechanism that makes the pendulum swing brakes easily: there is a plastic piece that keeps the pendulum into place and the person I bought it from forgot to put it back in the clock before shipping it ... .
I recently bought a new one and it works great, however does anyone USE the Phantom clock, I mean as a real clock? I'm afraid it will brake easy ... the clock just doesn't feel like good, solid quality imho ... .

Fantasma didn't replied to my e-mail. Killertweety do you know of any place where I can buy one?

Thanks

I live in Cincinnati, so I have to do all my magic shopping by the net.
We have only one magic shop in town, and that is kinda weak on inventory, and no Tenyo when I was in last.

No problem. I was half hoping they had multiples in stock. Smile

I didn't get mine until fairly recently and I found it purely by luck at a shop in Canada. It was a store demo but it's basically like new. Nice price too. Otherwise I hate to say that no matter how hard I searched I found nothing on-line except the one that's been on sale on eBay (that seller is excellent but I think the price is a bit high). So I think the way its going to be found is by someone finding it at a local shop.

Good luck!

Hi Mark,

I know what you mean, I've tried almost everywhere. I've seen that one on ebay a few days ago, contacted the seller, but he was not very friendly and refused to ship the item using my fed ex account. Go figure...

I'll have to keep looking! Thanks for your help.

Wow! He was great to buy from but I didn't have any personal interaction. I have to assume he's making some money on the shipping. For $60 he should have sold. At best its a $40 item..
