Well, I thought we had posted this list somewhere in the forum, but I
couldn't find it, and Bill Page posted it again, but in the wrong
location, so I'm moving this here.
If anyone knows where the other list is located please let me know so
I can compare the two lists and delete any duplication.
Thanks, Q
Who Owns The Rights
The following is a list of illusions and the only professional
builders authorized to manufacture the illusion. If you buy one of
these illusions from any other builder it is an unauthorized copy of
the original. The imitation will not include the research, design
refinements and materials the professional builder has carefully
incorporated into the illusion. It may look the same but will not
perform the same. It is better to purchase a used illusion built by a
professional than a new one built in the back of a garage with
inferior materials and craftsmanship. When you can afford a new one
buy it from a professional builder for peace of mind.

Did you just copy this list from the magicauction? I put up before
the list but I did my homework and erased those what are never
existed. I think you should erase those either. Why would you give a
credit for nothing? After someone performed then add to the list. The
problem nobody ever saw who performed these illusions. Wow all
illusion from the same "inventor". And finaly. The "inventor" owns the
Illusion Entertainment site and Jonathan is his friend. He has a
friend on the magicauction site either.
http://www.illusionentertainment.com/
His site is up a couple years in the same way and nothing there as you
can see. Sorry not the same way before were written COMMING SOON.

Did you just copy this list from the magicauction? I put up before
the list but I did my homework and erased those what are never
existed. I think you should erase those either. Why would you give a
credit for nothing? After someone performed then add to the list. The
problem nobody ever saw who performed these illusions. Wow all
illusion from the same "inventor". And finaly. The "inventor" owns the
Illusion Entertainment site and Jonathan is his friend. He has a
friend on the magicauction site either.

His site is up a couple years in the same way and nothing there as you
can see. Sorry not the same way before were written COMMING SOON.

"The plain & simple fact of "oh that's cool I want to do that" cannot
be stopped. Only a true artist will stand alone in his/her performance
& style. Only ethical performers will pay rights & royalties to
performing someone's concepts. Other performers will just rip off
concepts..." Ryan C. Reed, Illusion Entertainment
