Ronjo Magic Store

Hello friends,

Some years back Kerry Pollock released a jumbo card effect called Kate And Edith.
For $30.00 you got four custom printed 3″ x 6″ plastic cards and a routine.

For the few who actually took the time to learn the included elaborate patter were rewarded with 5 minutes of non stop laughter, a thunderous applause and the magician gets a prized adult routine to cherish for ever.

For the many who did purchase the original version, I believe that the adult story line proved to be too difficult to remember in accordance with the handling of the cards and many folk thought that the routine itself would not been worth learning as the target audience for the effect would be far & few in between to warrant the work involved.

JUST MY OPINION!

Well friends Doc Eason has revamped the effect for the very reasons I listed above. The new plastic cards will last a lifetime are even bigger this time, 5″ x 7″. The cards have the character names printed right on them, so you can’t confuse, Kate the Queen of Clubs with Edith the Queen of Spades and Stanley is printed on the King of Hearts just for cosmetic reasons.

No printed instruction either. Now you can remember what to say, what to do and how to do it, they way you want to present it with the supplied DVD is a comprehensive tutorial.

See below for all the details with live performances, teach-ins, PDF files & I-pod audio files.

It features rhymed patter, which will have the audience rolling on the floor. The routine has been thoroughly audience tested in comedy and magic clubs all over the United States.

During the routine the King of Hearts is removed from between the Queen of Spades and the Queen of Clubs three times. Each time he manages to reappear. Finally, he* vanishes* in a cloud of laughter!

You receive most complete tutorial possible. Scripts from Dan Garrett, Doug Slater, RJ Owens and Doc Eason are included in pdf form so that, once you have chosen the version you want to use, you can download and print it.
Doc talks about several different methods to memorize the script.

In addition, they have included an audio file of Doc’s script which you can download to your iPod to learn it that way.

They have also included four live performances: one from Kerry, one from RJ Owens and two from Doc. These views give you a chance to see how the routine plays in front of real audiences.

The DVD covers the handling, care and feeding of the props, and cautionary notes about when not to do this routine, as well as additional tips from Bill Palmer, Bob Escher and a clever reworking of the script by Doug Slater and Paul Landry. Comes with four Jumbo Cards, including the special gimmick. The cards are made of sturdy plastic, so they should last a lifetime.

So even if you have the original version, you simply must get the new one. For under $50.00 you will get to use and learn an entertaining piece comedy of magic that you and your mature audience will fully enjoy.

This really is a show piece, get one. You will be glad you did.

Thanks for reading.
untill next time,

Pete

Hello friends,

I wanted to explain in detail how we here at Ronjo Magic work harder to try to save our international clients some money with expensive shipping fees.

Our automated system shows various shipping options and prices.
These options are Fed Ex International (various options), USPS Air Mail Parcel Post Insured, and USPS EMS Mail.

In many cases, when you order these options are the only options available.

And while many of you choose USPS Air Mail Parcel Post because it is the cheapest service, what you don’t realize is that the major draw back is that there is no tracking available and from our experience, this service is the most likely to be held in customs for extended periods of time and no further information is available to us. We have to wait either 30, 45 or 60 days depending on your country before we can start the paperwork for a claim for a loss and on top of that, we will need you to submit to us via snail mail a signed and dated statement for the loss.
My advice to you is to avoid Air Mail unless yo do not mind waiting .

EMS mail does have tracking and is usually fast. The only draw back is that the tracking number is not in real time. In many cases you can try to track your package and get no current information. 99 times out of 100, your package will be in your hands before the online tracking us updated by the US Post Office.

While Fed Ex is pricey, but they have instant tracking and they have their own customs house, so packages clear fast (in most cases) and they have door to door service.

So now you know the services we offer you, I’ll tell you about Global Priority Mail. This is a great inexpensive service with tracking. There are many reasons we can not offer this great option to you at checkout, but if we are able to send this package to you with this method, we will and in the end this service will save you money!

Global Priority Mail is not available in all countries.
We are limited to send a package that is a maximum of four pounds.
We are limited to send this package in 1 of 4 pre approved USPS packages. (each package has different rates, but all less than any other shipping method).
If indeed we can send your package out via Global Priority Mail, we will ship it and capture the lesser amount to your credit card. Typically the entire cost will be between $5.00-$15.00. We purchase insurance separately through our postage provider, about $1.00-$4.00.

For example, if you lived in the UK and ordered one $35.00 DVD, EMS Mail insured would be about $22.00 and Air Mail insured would be about $19.35. We would would verify if we can use Global Priority Mail severs to your address and make sure it could fit in on of the pre approved USPS packages without going over the 4 lb maximum. In this case, we are able to. The costs are $10.50, $9.50 & $5.25. We would put it in the smallest possible Global Package. In this case the cost is $5.25 plus $1.60 insurance for a grand total of $6.85 in shipping. For faster service with tracking. We just saved you $15.15! And we are glad to do it. We want you to keep coming back to us.

We send all international packages out marked as gifts, so this may help you with other import fess, duties, taxes, etc. As we do not charge or collect any additional fees, we can not be sure how much if any your government may or may not charge you. Your best bet would be to ask your local customs agents if you have any questions on other potential fess.

Thanks for reading.

Until next time,

Pete

Hello friends,

On Valentine’s Day, we got a nasty ice storm around here. When it all melted much of the water found its way in though the side of our building through an old electrical conduit pipe. It flooded part of the Ronjo Magic warhouse, which in turn damaged some merchandise.

We thought we found all the damaged products which thankfully was only a few hundred dollars worth of things. Silks (bleeding colors), Card Tricks (badly warped) and some other minor props.

A couple of days ago however, we found that the leak spread over to the next isle and doused a few dozen books. Some very expensive, so not so much. But it still stings.

Several titles were brand new titles (titles by Patrick G. Redford), others were items we recently got in that we have been out of stock for some time ( from Mark Strivings, Paul Osborne, Terry Nosek).

A good chunk of these titles are “hard to come by”, we have to place larger minimum orders, we have to pre pay and or the distributors are hard to reach. Some titles we import from other countries.

We have already placed reorders for some of these, for some others we have to wait on.

If we decide to go to our insurance for this, it should cover these losses. If not, we may have a special sale on all of these books. Many of them did not get completely soaked. The covers only or the first front and or back few pages may be warped a bit. But a good many of them are readable without too much damage, we just can’t sell them as new.

We’ll let you know soon if we decide to have a sale on salvageable items.

Thanks for reading.
Pete
