When i am looking for magic to buy i am looking for several reasons
its always nice to expand what we do and add new things - like any act
but due to the nature of our act we are limited anyway - not just by cost but by accessibility
so the different reasons i look for magic
magic that will work for blind people
magic that will work for low motor skills
magic that is durable
magic that is in my skill set
magic that i like - just for me!
magic that i can use at kids party
magic that may need replacing - working with disabled people - things don’t last as long
magic that’s current / up to date
magic - they guys WANT TO DO
magic that packs small and plays big
not every magic trick works for everyone
(in the case of performing)
so what may work for a blind person may not be suitable for a person with cerebral palsy as the handling maybe to difficult
FREE MAGIC -
if people donate magic, which they do
then we take it!
big, small, complicated!
if we do not have to pay then we will give anything a go
we may even surprise ourselves and achieve something that we didn’t think we could achieve, purely because we have been given the opportunity without cost.
this way also allows us to own magic that we CAN use but maybe can afford
we are a very small part of a small chair and we get by by begging, crowdfunding and peoples kindness.
any magic that we become in possession of that is clearly not for us in anyway - we sell, and use that money to buy something more suitable
every penny goes straight back into magic touch
magicians are hoarders, and compulsive buyers so i know that whatever i am after will turn up somewhere eventually - second hand.
and i will always buy second hand where i can, its cheaper therefore we get more for our money
very rarely do i buy new - unless we have had a huge donation come in!
as far as magic goes i don’t know everything - in fact i know very little
and i wish to keep it that way.
if i see something that i think MAY work with our guys then i go to my inner circle - real magicians lol
who help me with technicalities
if we then think it could be of use then i research further
