From what I've gathered it's something to do with impulse buying of magic items. I'm looking at magic reviews and the acronym has come up
Looking to BUY: Penomenon Writer (Black version), Ghost Cap (Porper), CAPtivated, Glass Mirage, Just a Key (Porper)

I believe CUPS stands for Compulsive Unnecessary Purchase Syndrome .

The cure simply involves a pair of scissors and a credit card. I have also found unplugging my computer,avoiding magic shops and refusing to read my magic magazines to be helpful.

C.U.P.S. was first coined at talkmagic.co.uk
I'm not sure if we are proud or apalled.

I really wish someone would release a video of the CUPS effect on a real audience, without all of the editing.

I'll use this medical diagnosis on my wife the next time she sees another package arrive from The Magic Warehouse or Hocus Pocus. "Honey, I'd love to stop, but the doctor says there's no cure for CUPS. Remember, he says I only have 50 years to live."

I just earned over $2.00 in "Ebay bucks" when I purchased the newly released "Advanced CUPS Xtreme 2.0 - The Complete Underground Routine Series Volumes I & II (w/DVD and Props) [BLUE BACK version] - new in box with FREE Shipping" from a really connected Ebay seller in Singapore - by sniping it in the very last seconds of the auction for $102.52!!!!!!!!!!
I am so excited and can't wait for it to get here! Once I have a chance to check it out I will get back with you guys and give you my thoughts on it. :thumbsup:
