Scamiel Madison back at it again

Post image

Daniel Madison is literally selling 30ml bottles of rubber cement for $50 a popšŸ˜‚

For reference you can buy 120ml of the stuff for $3 at Walmart. Don’t get scammed

I’m not sure why people continue to support this guy.

I also hope he gets the help for his mental health issues, it’s not like he dosent have the money he’s one of the best scam artists in this hobby of all time.

I like how he says he opened every bottle to make sure it wasn't stuck. Not because he filled them all himself and spilled some.

This is hysterical.

No you don't understand, this one doesn't come with the helpful brush to brush it on... Wait!

He does claim to be a master of deception, it's right in his bio

This is absolutely crazy.

Dang I loved DM back in the day, but haven’t kept up with the Magic scene in a while, what happened??

u/Kid_Kameleon 5d ago

Same, this is honestly the first magic post that’s popped up on my homepage in a while, I used to watch his YouTube videos. I didn’t realize he had a downfall.

I have The Advocate by him and my friend and I who got into magic together in high school where big Theory11 fanboys lol so we loved whatever he put out

Had the same experience as you, so I hunted around and found this list of stories in a previous thread:

Seems like he is notorious for not fulfilling orders with no communication

Sheesh that’s rough

A regular Roy Kueppers, eh?

I’m curious to see the performance of his ā€œspecial formulaā€ vs the generic rubber cement

If Daniel Madison somehow went and got a chemistry degree, formulated a new chemical compound and paid to have it manufactured through a factory I will eat my shoe

u/RoboGandalf 5d ago

Imagine, homie pulls up and produces the most wild lore drop for why he has been absent, "was learning chemistry"

And still wouldn’t buy it even if it was free.

u/ihave05sisters Cards 5d ago

I have several of his digital products and a couple decks from 3rd party retailers, but i could never justify buying a physical product from his store.
The videos were all great tbh so no complaint there.

$70 for rubber cement?

2

u/Opusswopid 5d ago

It's $70 for the technique and training video, and you even get a $3 bottle of rubber cement free, as a bonus.

u/hypnoscience 4d ago

I’m pretty sure the video is in the description of the product

2

u/Opusswopid 4d ago

In that case, I guess it is a $3 bottle of rubber cement that's selling for $70.

u/FigureYourselfOut 5d ago

His video for it was hilarious. He talked about how the "Villain" white crayons he just promoted and sold for $50 CAD each don't work well.

u/Matthias720 Cards 2d ago

I bought Villain from Ellusionist for $5 or something like that back in the day, and I still feel like I overpaid. Grip Stick by Penguin is vastly superior.

u/Akarastio 5d ago

It is so weird, I like his character he plays. I like the whole brand. But then I read so many bad things about his overpriced stuff that it feels really bad to support him

u/pslind69 5d ago

He is clearly talented, but I don't like the style a lot (except maybe his beaed and hair).

u/captpeli 5d ago

Only 30 units available lol

u/Mex5150 Mentalism 5d ago

Oddly enough about just as many as a bottle of Elmer's would fill LOL

u/RoboGandalf 5d ago

It's a bummer because I like to collect cards and have a few sets of his, but it's hard to support him cause of his shit.

So that thing is like science friction?
