About a year or so ago, I placed an order for their Blue Phantom. I was sent a Paypal invoice from Etrickshop.com. When I went to Paypal to make the payment, I decided to pay with my credit card that was on file with my Paypal account instead of paying with my checking account. I received a notice from Paypal stating that I couldn't use the credit card and the only way I could make a payment was if I used my Checking acct. that was linked to Paypal. I decided not to go through with the deal because I figured something was just not right with this company. I couldn't understand why Paypal wouldn't use my credit card for payment. I didn't want to take any chances.

I believe you mixed up 2 webshops, Rick. Blue Phantom is for sale at emagictricks.co.uk, and definitely not at etrickshop.com.

The first company is reliable, emagictricks.co.uk, I ordered and received Blue Phantom from them.

Happily I never did business with the latter one, etrickshop.com, also warned by the post on TMC.

Jaime, watch your steps in the future... You will prob get your money back, but all that trouble you must do to achieve that is annoying. You should have asked me first :)

this is the first time i encountered problem with the magic shops and i think it is not easy to get back my money, it will take a long process with Paypal. this magic shop wasted my 3 weeks of waiting for nothing.

at eBay some of my Tenyo items bought them with risk or against the eBay rules because i just deal with the seller directly but fortunately i found honest seller.

you're right Rob next time i will ask advice first from you :)

I have found that paypal will usually sides with the buyers and not the sellers. If the seller didn't send the item or have a tracking number to prove it was sent and delivered they usually loose the debate.

So I think you have a good chance to will either get the items once paypal contacts the seller with an open case against them or a refund will be made that shouldn't take too long.

For those interested there is one of these Blue Phantoms for sale on Ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Blue-Phantom-Co ... 2a461e58d5 . I might bid on it but the price may go through the roof.
Also, the seller claims this is new/unused, but when you take a closer look at the photo's there seem to be a few spots where the paint is chipping off the checkers. Rob, I know you have this version, is this normal?

I have e-mailed Emagictricks yesterday for the second time in a few months and hopefully they can tell me if this is still for sale or not. It's still on their website and you can order and pay for it but I think that's a bit risky before knowing they can still build the effect. They did not reply to my first e-mail.

This time I quickly got a reply! They had 5 in stock, as of now only 4 ;) I choose the blue version. A great early Xmas present for myself :D

So, if you want one now is the time to buy. They told me they sell out VERY quickly and are not produced in large quantaties.

Good that you can buy a new one David, these spots on the eBay item are definitely proof that this one is used!

You are lucky David to received a quick reply from them unlike me with my 3x messages, i recieved none. But somehow paypal send my money back on my accont, that's the good news. Maybe etrickshop choose only who the person they are going to sell with and you are one of them :)
