Richard Speaks

I am leaving early tomorrow morning for our Mind Mysteries Seminar.

Usually I monitor all posts made to this blog, but won’t be looking until I return back on Sunday. It would be helpful to hold back making any posts until then.

OK,

We are getting close to the event and things are moving along nicely.

The latest updates can be found here.

We were so sorry that Steve Pellegrino had to cancel do to personal reasons and will miss him. If we do this again, (and that is a big “if”) he will be first on our list to add to the lineup. In the meantime we now have Howard Baltus to take Steve’ s place for the lecture on Internet Marketing.

As we complete all the preparations, I am getting more and more excited. I just finished a very successful week at Comedy Off Broadway in Lexington, Kentucky (complete with radio and TV interviews) and have now cleared my agenda to concentrate entirely on the seminar.

I am excited and can’t wait to get started!!!!

A few posts on one of the magic forums prompt this message.

Stealing is stealing. It is criminal and morally wrong. I have seen my books and videos on free torrents and other sites. If I had my way, I would like to see those who do such things have their computers fried forever! But almost as bad as those low lives are those who would take advantage of these sites and download the material.

We have recently changed our policy to sell my materials only through this website. I consider our customers to be of the highest caliber and know they would never indulge in these practices. They realize all the materials are totally audience tested and they are receiving many times their purchase price in value.

As we move along in this coming year, I intend to offer both new and unreleased products that will prove originality over cheap imitations and offer our customers the very BEST in magic and mentalism products.

We are all very excited to announce that Jon Stetson has been added to the lecturers at our Seminar in February!

See all the details here.

This keeps getting better and better!!!

I would invite you to take a look at my new magic app for the IPhone here.

I will post a number of ideas to use with it on my blog!

We look forward to seeing you there!

We are really pleased to announce our Mind Mysteries Seminar taking place February 25 through the 28th in Waterbury, Connecticut.

In addition to Richard Osterlind, there will be lectures by Jim Sisti, Steve Pellegrino, Bobby Torkova, and Sandy Sisti. This one of a kind event is something you have to attend if you have a serious interest in mentalism!

All details can be found here.

Thanks!

A new era for Osterlind Mysteries

In an effort to further advance our hugely successful line of professional magic and mentalism products, starting this new decade, Osterlind Mysteries will sell all of its materials only through our official website.

This change will enable us to bring you the finest products at reasonable prices and have direct and intimate contact with all of our customers. Eliminating mass marketing will also reduce the continuing onslaught of illegal torrents and rip-offs of our products. We trust our valuable customers to maintain the secrecy of materials they purchase from us and this will stop that heinous process.

We also will be instituting an official newsletter to continually update our valuable clients as to what new products we will be introducing. The new Versatile Blindfold is only the first of a whole new series of exclusive products you can expect to see shortly. If you are an existing Osterlind Mysteries customer, you will be automatically placed on that list. Future customers will be able to sign up for the newsletter on our website.

Nothing in our product line is discontinued! All the fine products you have grown to rely on our still available. In addition, we are constantly improving existing items such as the Ultra Board, Stainless Steel Blindfold, Thoughtscan and others. In addition to introducing completely new props and books, we will also complete the Mind Mysteries Guidebook series and those 2 volumes will be available this year.

Finally, as you may have already read, we are now offering our customers a choice of using either First Class or Priority mail on their orders. Priority mail can be tracked, and is a bit quicker, but is much more expensive. First Class might be the way to go, especially on lower priced items.

Thank you all for your continuing support and I trust these changes will make doing business with us better than ever.

We are proud to announce our newest offering, The Osterlind Versatile Blindfold! You can check out all of the details by clicking here.

If you own my 13 Steps to Mentalism series, you will have seen this blindfold used 3 times. A 4th use is included in the booklet that accompanies the blindfold.

As I mentioned in the foreword of that booklet, “It seems like the more experienced I become in mentalism, the more I like simplicity and practicality,” this prop is a perfect example of that philosophy. It is so simple, but can do so much!

For the price, you will have a ton of effects at your disposal. I’m sure you will find your own personalized uses for it.

Order the Osterlind Versatile Blindfold today. When you get it, you can just fold it up, pop it into your case, or even your pocket, and be ready to go anytime … anywhere!

Also, starting now, Osterlind Mysteries now offers you a choice of choosing either Priority or First Class postage. With the recent rise in US Postal rates, First Class can offer you a huge savings, especially on International orders.

Jim and I have been hard at work with big plans for 2o1o. I won’t tip much just yet, but rest assured you will want to keep an eye open on this blog and on our website.

May you all have a wonderful New Year and great prosperity!

Richard
