OK, so, Ive been thinking about tying the two together since theyre awesomo but I dont know what to get. I am moving towards Uday Cooper Cups and Balls and Vernet 3 Shell game just because of the price. Anyone have either of those? Are they ok, or I am getting what I pay for? I am not a pro nor do I intend to make money off of magic, I just want to volunteer my time to places. Money is an issue. I truly dont want to spend more than 45 in total.
Ive seen Black Fox's Shells, specifically his Turtle Shells, and I may pick them up, even though theyre 40 bucks. They just look too damn good to pass up and I love turtles. |

| YOu get what you pay for. The shells are not bad.. but I like the metal myself. THey just feel better but both work fine. The cheap cups are good to start, see if you like it. They will turn colors on you most of the time, but thats not all that bad. Again I like cups a little heavy but start with the cheaper set and down the road you can move up if you like the effect. |

| Would it be overkill to perform both, one right after the other, specifically shell game then cups and balls. |

| are you using the typical pea? if so you can use cups for the shell game. especially if you use mini cups. then you just replace the pea with the actuall ball... |

| well the idea was to do the shell game then turn all the shells into real walnuts and using them for the cups and balls having the final load to be a plastic squirrell |

| OK, I just received the perfect shell game. I am enjoying it. Heck, for 10 bucks you cant go wrong with these shells. They give you 3 peas as well. |

| I may just scrap the cups and squirrel and set out for Hundy 500, giving each of the spectator money to gamble with only for them to lose to me and I change it into real money. Not sure if it would take away too much from the shells. |
