Making A 'Fortune' With Custom Magic 8 Balls

New York, NY (WFN) -- A New York company is making a fortune in more ways than one -- they sell custom versions of those "Magic 8 Ball" fortune tellers.

The Print Box, Inc. specializes in personalized promotional products like keychains and pens, but their most popular product is a Magic 8 Ball that can be made with custom fortunes.

Spokesman Jeff Huvar says one shipping company had a bunch of "sarcastic balls" made featuring comments like "Yeah, Right," "You Gotta Be Kidding" and "In Your Dreams."

Then there was the financial company which poked fun at investor strategies with fortunes such as "Buy Pork Bellies" and "One Word: Plastics."

But there's a cost for telling your own fortune: The minimum order is 2500 balls and there's an additional cost of $2500 to make a special mold for the messages.
