There is no limit to how many times your name goes into the hat, so the more JB Magic that you buy the more chances you have to win. After all of the July orders are processed, we will draw winners on video and you could win the grand prize.
There’s almost a thousand dollars worth of prizes up for grabs which include two autographed tricks off of Mark Mason’s new Elite Line, a limited edition Magic Geek Flex Fit Cap, T-Shirts, Gift Certificates, and let’s not forget the grand prize: A limited edition Come Fly with Me made with real Morgan Silver Dollars signed by the creator Mark Mason and made out to YOU!

Do downloads count too?
Posted on July 1, 2009 at 10:56 am
Hi Sam, good question. None of the JB Products are Instant Downloads. They usually feature some really cool, super-ingenious gimmick that needs to be shipped to you.
Posted on July 1, 2009 at 12:35 pm
How many names will be drawed?
Posted on July 1, 2009 at 3:20 pm
Hi Jaysen: We are still adding prizes to the list. It started out as ten prizes, but now we are up to fifteen. I suspect that we will continue to add new prizes until the end of July. Keep checking here on the Magic Geek Blog for updates and information.

What happens if your name is drawn twice?
Posted on July 2, 2009 at 6:22 am
I HOPE I WIN I LOVE DOING MAGIC
Posted on July 2, 2009 at 6:27 am
Ooh, Jaysen, that is a good question. That of course means you win two prizes. We will draw the winners in order all the way up to the grand prize and if your name comes up for two prizes, you get both of them.

hi chris i like magic a lot how old do you need to be to work at magic geek?
Posted on July 5, 2009 at 2:22 pm
isnt magicgeek just a warehouse with a studio? its not like an actual store right?
Posted on July 6, 2009 at 1:31 am
Hello. My name is Adam and I am 9 years old. My birthday is Aug 26th and I will be 10. I love the magic tricks. I just think it will be great to win.
Posted on July 6, 2009 at 10:59 am
Hi Chris: I've been wondering about where your store is ,but i could not find it. If possible could you tell me where?
Posted on July 7, 2009 at 2:58 am
Hi Pasha: We are going to give away a few Gift Certificates ranging from $10 to $25.
Hi Trevor: The list of JB Products can be found by clicking on the picture of Mark Mason, Daniel and I giving the thumbs up. If you scroll up on this page, you'll find it.
Hi Joshua: We aren't hiring right now. But I started working here when I was 17.
Hi Brandon: Our store is in Santa Barbara, California. But it's not your typical magic shop. Customers can't come in and look around, but if you are local and place an order over the phone, you can come pick it up.
Thanks for the great questions everyone. keep them coming and I'll keep answering!
Posted on July 9, 2009 at 1:00 am
Hi Chris. I was wondering that if you get drawn from the hat about two or three times, does that mean you win that amount of prizes? My dad was just wondering about the possibilities. Thanks.
Posted on July 14, 2009 at 5:01 am
One more thing. My friend's B'day is onJuly 25. So does Magic Geek offer any magic gifts on B'days? Cause my friend said that he orders from Magic Geek every week.
Posted on July 14, 2009 at 5:05 am
Hi Rishiv, every time your name is pulled out of the hat in the drawing, you win a prize. So if your name gets pulled for the Flexfit cap, a gift certificate and Metamorphosis, you would recieve all three of those prizes. As far as birthdays go, we don't have any gifting programs in place right now, but he can tell us that it's his birthday in the special notes section of the shopping cart.
Posted on July 14, 2009 at 6:43 am
hey chris, i was just wondering when and how the winners will be notified that they one a prize or prizes.
thanks.
---daniel
Posted on July 19, 2009 at 10:41 pm
Good question, Daniel S. On August 5th I will draw the names on video. We will spend the rest of the week contacting the winners by phone or e-mail to see where they want their prizes shipped.
Posted on July 20, 2009 at 1:02 am
thanks chris.

you roock on the magic chris
Posted on July 21, 2009 at 9:37 pm
about how many people have already entered this contest, i mean what are the odds
Posted on July 22, 2009 at 1:56 am
also who is mark mason?
Posted on July 22, 2009 at 4:18 am
Hi John Paul, Unfortunately there is no way for me to calculate what the odds are at this time. Quite a few people have entered the contest, but we keep adding new prizes, so it kind of evens out through time. Mark Mason is the face of JB Magic. He is in all of their instructional DVDs and is an accomplished magician, lecturer and inventor. If you'd like to learn more about him, I did an interview with him in the previous blog entry.
Posted on July 22, 2009 at 5:01 am
thanks but i still have a few more question
1. how old do you have to be if you wanted to use fire
2. do all of your tricks come from england
3. do you have the bending spoon trick too for the contest
Posted on July 22, 2009 at 6:04 am
last question how much is shipping
Posted on July 22, 2009 at 6:09 am
Hi John Paul, you are very inquisitive. I will answer your questions in order:
1. Fire products are typically for magicians of 18 years or older.
2. Our magic comes from all over the world, not just England.
3. To enter the contest, you must buy products specifically produced by JB Magic and they do not make a bending spoon effect.
"Last Question". We have a flat-rate fee of $5 on all standard shipments within the US. Our shopping cart will give you a total on special shipping methods and world-wide shipments.
Thanks for your questions.
Posted on July 22, 2009 at 9:08 am

1.when your doing a card trick where they write their signature how do you get replacements
2.is the pictures in your videos batman
3.if you buy something from here how long does it take to get it to your location
4.can anybody die from any of your thousands of tricks

Posted on July 22, 2009 at 12:42 pm

Posted on July 22, 2009 at 12:46 pm
Hi John Paul, it seems that you have a large inventory of questions for our customer service department. Please call 888-624-4243 and ask for Daniel.
Posted on July 22, 2009 at 1:16 pm
i want 2 win like every1 else. theres a huge chance 4 any1 2 win though. this is great thanks Magic Geek!
Posted on July 29, 2009 at 3:06 pm
hey chris,
i was just wondering if dunninger's delight requires a refill and if you would you recommend buying it.
thanks,
daniel
Posted on July 30, 2009 at 9:28 pm
I am truly a Magic Geek, and i need to win this prize. I love magic and would love to be #1 on the charts
Posted on July 30, 2009 at 11:47 pm
Hi Daniel, Dunninger's Delight does not require a refill. The gimmick can be used over and over. It's a great trick and if you practice your audience management, most of it can be done in the spectator's hand.
Posted on July 31, 2009 at 1:05 am
hi chris,
i was also wondering (if its possible), which tricks would you recommend that are under $30?
thanks,
---daniel
Posted on August 1, 2009 at 10:59 pm
last thing. would you rather get "the bat" or "the raven". i think the bat because its less expensive and apparently can do what the raven can and more. but the raven looks like TRUE magic.
Posted on August 2, 2009 at 6:10 am
Hi daniel s., These are really good questions to ask on the Forum, because you will get the advice of lots of magicians.
Tricks under $30: Street Magic Combo, Card Cognition, Houdini Chain Shackle Escape, It's a Match, Permanent.
The Bat and the Raven do different things. You might be able to make the Bat look like the Raven, but as far as instant vanishes, the Raven takes the cake. The Bat is used for more PK-like mental-magnatism effects.
Posted on August 3, 2009 at 12:50 am
last question...kind of.
would you recommend the bat because it looks great but i trust your honest opinion.
Posted on August 3, 2009 at 4:27 am
Hey daniel s., I really like the Bat. It's very simple to set up, easy to perform, and very clever.
Posted on August 3, 2009 at 4:31 am
ok chris, thanks a lot. hopefully ill order it soon.
---daniel
Posted on August 3, 2009 at 8:07 am
i was also wondering if there is a way to buy another set of gimmicks for "copy cash" because i folded my 20 dollar one bad and you can see it when i perform the trick. would i have to buy the whole trick again or can i just get the gimmicks for some other price?
magic geek supporter,
