I will never buy from AliExpress or Wish. Cheap magic is awful. It's not just the price but the fact that they are selling counterfeit versions of the real deal that is the problem. If you want a quality act please buy from the original producers. Those marked cards are terrible.
I ordered four items from AliExpress. I received two of them. I requested a refund on the two I didn't receive, and that was two months ago. I do not recommend ordering from this company.
Aliexpress is great for finding some discontinued tricks that I couldn't get anywhere else. The quality was for the most part has been excellent. I'd stick away from the cheap decks though.
Thanks for being our canary in the coal mine 🙂 YOU ROCK SIR 👍🏻
"G of clubs" LMAO. I love this review. Is it just me? I've been buying magic for over 20 years, I LOVE going to the store and buying effects. Or even ordering some online. But even though I already know how most are done, when I finally get them home and I sit and play with them there's this kind of disappointment. I remember getting my first trick and the guy warned me that once I started magic I'd lose that sense of wonderment, he was right I guess. It's a sick addiction I think, buying magic. I love performing effects for people. I get excited going to the shop. I love having unopened effects in a bag and going home. But once I sit and open them, it's like the day after Christmas. Is it just me?
omg man.... when you opened the fake bikes and you read the box saying "I'm glad they are telling me they are comfortable" .... then you get your hands on the deck. and you said it" they are NOT COMFORTABLE" had me in tears lol 😂
The marked cards are also stripped if you didn't know.
Well I did it. After 3 weeks of scouring every inch of this planet via the Internet searching for volume 1 and 2 of a certain title. I have determined they are completely and utterly sold out of existence. Sadly all of the legitimate magic stores that said it was "in stock" I found out days later that it was out of stock by getting my money refunded. This happened 5 times. By the last time I just didn't care anymore, I expected it. So these books as advertised and spoken about and of course by the fact that they are not to be found anywhere. Not even for some extreme dollar amount. Reinforces my feelings that I actually need these books for this magical presentation that I am composing. So I decided to risk a whole $5 and bought the pair on AliExpress. I'm not holding my breath. I'm mostly expecting to get a blank ream of paper with a picture of the book on the cover. But I can only hope that they are the actual books. Or facsimiles at best.
A lot of magic that are not marketed effects in Ali are not quite bad 😂❤.
Isn't the bottom line that most of these effects (and others sold by these companies) are knock-offs of the originals? For example, the nut off bolt (Micro Psychic) is by Kreis.and I believe it sold for over $100. No way an original would sell for $2.68.
I have purchased a few of the nut and bolt effects and although it can be a bit loud, it works great in a bar setting. I don’t know if anyone knows this but the nut can either spin off or further up the bolt depending on which side of the magnet is pressed to the battery compartment. Ali express will email you the instructions for any trick you buy.
Buzzzzz... That is the sound of magic!... That made me laugh, best line ever!! Great video as usual.
attempts faro ..."like 2 trucks hitting each other on the street".... David you low key, unknowingly or maybe knowingly lol I don't know .... dropped some comedy gems haha. so many lines and moments. I hope you are able to do more of these. of just you ordering magic and opening it. haha.
I haven’t had any issues with sites that sell just the downloads … but the actual product sites have been re-packaged, cheaper versions of the authentic trick … thanks for sharing David 👍👍
Super dope video thank you for reviewing AliExpress I was kind of wondering about it myself but you sir are the brave one❤
I have ordered from aliexpress, stuff hasn't arrived yet but something that caught my eye was apparently a $2 Crystal Cleaver ($5 with shipping). even if it's knockoffs it's way more expensive/out of stock to get the real thing secondhand. sort of interesting: there are many items with pictures with blurred bicycle rider backs. Not sure if it means they are trying to pass it off as rider back or not, or if the blurred parts are actually not the same. I didn't order any of those so that's interesting I guess.
The large piece on the bolt comes of. It is only used for pushing the batteries out. Just the nut goes on. Then the nut will move smoothly.
There is a magic shop where I live that buys stuff from AE and then sells them for ten times the amount 😢
Hahah, awesome video... I love Chinese and far-eastern culture, so I bought a few cheapo card decks from Ali (including some rare Bicycle stuff). They're cheapo and don't really fan properly, but they literally only cost a dollar. Ali is a 'resource' which is there for us, it's totally up to the collector, as long as your standards are adjusted.
