I can not compare this to other Gumball machines as I have not seen other models. But I do think that this is an A1 item.
The first thing that appealed to me was the price. This model is about half the price than others available.
Normally I shun away from tricks that are cheaper as they are often inferior but at nearly $700 I thought it can't be that bad. I also wont buy 'rip offs', tricks that have poached from other dealers. However I was assured that the loading method was totally different from other methods which in my mind makes it a different model. But to clear all doubt on whether this was exactly what I wanted I must have sent about half a dozen emails to Ray Logan asking him all sorts of questions like is the gumball machine examinable? Each time Ray came back with the answer I wanted.
So I parted with my $700 and waited eagerly for my Gumball machine to arrive. When it arrived I decided to see if I could see how it worked without the instructions, but in the end I was defeated and had to read the instructions. The method in which you load the prizeball is simplicity itself.
If you can drop a ball then you load the machine. Not only that, it's done in seconds and way before anyone even suspects.
What I also liked about Ray's machine is that he has replaced the glass with clear perspex making it much lighter and safer.
My pet hate in magic is buying a trick and the instructions read...... "You also require...." Yes, we have all got tricks like that, but worse still is when you get a trick and you find that you have to modify it in some way for it to work, well with this Gumball machine you get EVERYTHING. Even down to a jar of gold glitter and a paperbag. You could work it straight away. Being from across the Pond Ray even sent me a couple of coins to use in the machine. Now that's what I call service.
If you are after a ring in gumball machine then this is a must.
