Looks like this guy is quite popular from the other thread. But not many people know much about this item there. This looks very affordable to me. A CD headline prediction with 6 other routines for $359 and free shipping. Very tempting. Would love to know more about it before I put my money down. Anyone knows about this one?

$359 should offer free shipping shouldn't it?

Prediction unit like this for less than $700 is unheard of. Hocus-pocus has one for $795 + shipping. That's like almost $500 difference with shipping... Wonder if they do the same thing...

As I have stated before: nothing can beat the Cesaral Cassette Prediction in which you can spread a pack of 52 cards on the table seconds before PLAY is pressed and miraculously the spec’s genuinly free choice happens to be what you predicted he would choose. The same goes for the position of the Jam Magic Die. Due to the fact that there are no boom boxes that can burn a CD, you must force the card you predict. I do that by Svengali, but that is not near as spectacular as a visibly free and genuine choice.
I promised to be back when I have both Tom’s and Wills’ CD prediction.
Given the above limitations with CDs you will not be surprised that both systems are - to put it mildly - very “similar”. They work well, the effect is stunning and there is no technical reason they will not go on doing that for years. Tom’s system is a little more sophisticated, but whether you are willing to pay the rather steep price difference for the extras you get is a very personal matter and also depends on your clientele. You can perform MOABT with cheaper books, so why do we spend two or even three times more for MOABT and the Shakespeare Experiment bound in leather as I have done. If you are interested in what the 'leather binding' of Tom's player consists, send me a PM and after asking and getting permission from both Tom and Will I will be glad to explain.

I have just purchased Will's version from Hocus Pocus. I must say that when I took it out of the box, I opened it and gave the CD player a really good, close inspection and COMPLETELY missed the gimmick! When I learned how it works, I just sat there laughing at myself because it was so clever and yet so simple. I believe that it's worth every penny. I have no worry about using this product in my show because I know it's 100% fool proof and fail-safe. It's going to work perfectly every time - no matter what. I currently own a CW cassette prediction (3 times the price) that I have used for many years and took it out of my show when someone in my audience mentioned it would have been funnier if I had used an 8-track tape instead. I realized that the effect needed an update. Last night I used Will's version in a corporate show just as I would have done with my cassette prediction. It blew them away! You guys need to stop thinking like magicians about who puts the CD in the player. It doesn't matter. The audience is completely devastated by this effect and it will remain in my act until the next big media change takes place and someone comes out with something using whatever replaces the CD. I think it's a huge bonus that this method is so *** simple and clever! When I am out in the middle of the ocean on a cruise ship, that's exactly what I want! Thanks Will!

Welcome Monkeyboy. Hasn't the CD been replaced for several years now? Lot's of information offered in a public forum.

Yes, it has... but I personally don't feel so comfortable sending someone my iPod! LOL I'd rather use the CD.

I'm puzzled. Is this a prediction where a CD is inserted and out comes a digital audio prediction? Now, since most people own MP3 players the size of your thumbnail that can contain hundreds of hours of sound, I don't understand how this effect would actually fool anyone. The explanation for how it works -- esp if the magician touches the player in any way -- would be obvious. Am I missing something here?

I agree. That's the problem nowadays if you use electronic props of any kind in an overt fashion.

I recently got mine. You had to put a $100.00 deposit on it a few months ago. I do not know if they are making anymore. You will have to contact them directly. It is a terrific and very, very easy and 100% reliable method. The spectator puts in the CED taht they had for a week or a month and the spectator closes the lid and pushes the play button. The spectgator can pause the CD at anytime. At the end of the CD pediction, the spectator can open the CD player, remove the CD and keep it to play it at home.

I was going to get from a UK dealer but they was all out of stock

In the end I ordered direct even paying the VAT still ended up
paying £70 less and only took 2 days to arrive

Highly recommend
