The Good
The Pandora's Box System is a sound way to approach pickup, and if mastered, you could be extremely effective.
The Bad
Price is misleading and not much content is delivered for the up-front price (an expensive 30+ week membership is required to unlock all content).
Pandora's Box introduces some novel ideas by classifying women into 8 typical personality types, which you can then learn to identify and handle. Although the system is valuable, the delivery fails to execute on a few levels.

Firstly, the price is misleading. Vin promises to deliver the "entire" Pandora's Box system for the up-front offering price, but after purchase I only discovered an explanation of the system and it's 8 types of female personalities. The rest of the "entire" system must be purchased on a weekly basis (billed monthly) for a duration of 32 weeks. Granted, a lot of extra bonus content is delivered during these weeks, but some of it should be made available with the up-front purchase to fulfill the sales promise. He does interviews with each of the personality types, which I believe are valuable extras, but the basic methods for executing the core ideals should be made available from the initial purchase, as offered.

Second, the content delivered with the up-front purchase is piecemeal, and consistently references things you are "going to learn" and tactics they are "going to reveal." The trouble is, you need to pay for many weeks to get these tactics.

Lastly, there is no point of contact for customer service from within the membership area. Someone later pointed out to me that I could just reply to Vin's newsletter, and that would probably work. For example, I wanted to contact their web developer regarding a technical issue. The website forces the topmost video (many videos per page) to automatically begin buffering. If you are in a place where internet is slower, and you have already seen the first video, it kills your load time on any other video while the first one buffers. This is extremely irritating, and nowhere in the membership area does it elicit feedback from the users.

As for the content, the ideas behind Pandora's Box are good and sound. However, you can go buy Keirsey-Bates's book, Please Understand Me, for a fraction of the cost and receive a lot of content on personality types (although they are not discussed in a sexual context). I personally feel the up-front cost should be somewhere around ~$40, as it stands. If they delivered all of the promised content, the $97 would be a good deal, then they could upsell me on the additional interviews and "bonus" material separately!

In conclusion, Pandora's Box System is a pretty valuable tool, and if you mastered it you would be dangerous. However, the marketing strategy it employs really does damage to the customer and to the brand. If you have lots of money, then you might give it a shot. If you don't, then I would steer clear of this one.

You pay for the package deal and then they send you to a site which if you loose it you loose everything with no way to get back in or get your money back. Pure rip off. Besides it that weeks and weeks to get the whole package if you even make it to any part of the program. eor a $170 I ended up with a PDF file of AMANS GUIDE TO THE WOMEN MIND part 1 I guess they think that is worth $179. What a rip off and no place to contact them about your problem, no emails telling you paid for the program. Just give away your money as normal for this bunch.

Okay, here it goes. What most of you must be thinking is: does it work? My answer is yes and no. The good thing about this product is that, like it says, its a great eye opener. It gives you some very good tips about general female psychology, and what exactly women want in life. After studying it, female behaviour will stop being such a huge mystery, which will grant you peace of mind and self confidence, no more "I dont understand women stuff". At least if you´re a little bit smart.

Now, this can be quite helpful for developing healthy relationships, the negative part is that the product overrates itself way TOO MUCH. You wont have absolute power over a female, nor you will be able to attract ANY WOMAN YOU WANT, you´re gonna develop some very useful skills, yes, but you wont become a love and passion god, like the product says.

I know what you´re thinking "But Rodrigo, all products overrate themselves a little bit". Yes, but in this case they are promising something just too big. You dont spend that huge amount of money just to know some cool facts about female´s mind, you spend it because you think its gonna turn you into a semi-god, something it doesnt do. And this happpens because the 8 types of women they talk about are just too general, and everything mostly depends on how you develop your own skills and your own personality, something that no book or dvd can do.

So, is it worthy? Depends on what you´re looking for, I have to admit that when I had my first contact with Pandora´s System I was extremely expectful, and really wishing that everything that it said on that long intro video was true, sadly it isnt. It helped me realize that there aint no bulletproof method. If you´re looking for a general and useful view on female´s mind, then I would say yes, you should get it. But if you´re looking for anything else, you´re just wasting your time.

The ads for Pandora's Box gives off the impression that if you ask women these magical three questions, they will be helpless to do anything but fall madly in love with you, and chances are she will have sex with you right there and then. This is a massive case of "too good to be true."

So the first problem with the system is the obvious, the ads are exceptionally misleading. While they purposely make it seem like ask three simple questions and make women fall in love with your (I am pretty sure most ads use those exact words) what the system teaches is (according to the system) all women have three different independent value systems. And each one will (according to the system) suggests what that woman is looking for in a man/relationship.

So each "question" is not a question you can ask a woman but rather questions you must find out about the woman.

The Second problem is, the system says to seduce a woman you need to find answers to the 3 questions, but it does not give advice on how to do so. And these are EXTREMELY personal questions, many (if not most) women if you asked them these questions directly would lie, thus defeating the purpose.

The Third problem with the system is it is mostly just rainmaking, every step of the way it asks for more money. The system in itself that you pay for, the system that is suppose to have three simple questions (which are anything but simple), this system according to the ads is suppose to be all you need to get with any woman you desire. However after you buy the system, Dicarlo is quickly telling you how to get girls you need to buy more videos and coaching tapes and a lot of other junk.

I jump off all "systems" at that point (if I can before that point).

Pandora's box is at best misleading and at worst a flat out lie. If the price of the starter kit was lower I might be willing to recommend fun little guide on understanding women better, but $70, come on! You can get better info from Barnes and Noble for under $30. (Hell under $10 used.)

I have to say I had serious doubts about this product and while those doubts are gone it still doesn't justify the price of this product. Does it work? Yes, Will it always work? No, while this does nail several variables that come with trying to figure out women it by no means covers every base out there. I have to say if the core package was released as say a soft cover on amazon for $20-$40 then it'll pay for itself just for the moments you start classifying old girl friends or close gal pals as Modern women or Social Butterflies.

The FACT is DiCarlo has taken a leap in female psychology here. This is based on well researched science and it is VERY effective IF applied properly, which as we all know is a MUST when dealing with women on a sexual level.

I didn't sign up for the online interviews which were way out of my price range, but the book itself is jam packed with pretty powerful information that relates to a woman's fears about sex and relationship.

I asked a women the "three strange questions" and she was immediately turned on. I got a flurry of IOI's after each question and by the time she has answered the last (i.e. third) question she was looking at me like she was ready to jump me right then and there.

The three questions are:

1) Do you TEST with several guys at once, or do you INVEST with only one guy at a time?

2) Do you JUSTIFY sex as something done only for fun, or do you DENY the past so that each time is special?

3) Do you IDEALIZE being taken care of, or are you a REALIST who is ready to take care of herself?

You will have to read Di Carlo's Pandora's Box system in order to find out why these questions are so powerful.

Dicarlo and Burke have good information so I'll read what they have to say but they have a habit of being deceptive in what they promise. Read Mark Alexander's review (Below).

He sums it up pretty well. Dicarlo and Burke offer free pdf downloads and encourage the reader to print, email or copy the books. Where the deception comes in is that they don't tell you that the pages are black and that if you print them out it will probably take four or five ink cartridges to do it. I do appreciate the free downloads and the free information but I don't like their subtle deceptive tactics. I did purchase some products from them before I realized what they were doing. For me, it undermines their integrity so I will give my money to those who don't use deceptive practices.

You pay for the package deal and then they send you to a site which if you loose it you loose everything with no way to get back in or get your money back. Pure rip off. Besides it that weeks and weeks to get the whole package if you even make it to any part of the program. eor a $170 I ended up with a PDF file of A MAN'S GUIDE TO THE WOMEN MIND part 1 I guess they think that is worth $179.

The only thing you'll really get out of the basic package is the knowledge that not all strategies work with all women. Also the description of different personality types are lacking in one respect, namely that these personality types are archetypes, and that a woman may have a personality that belong to two or even more of the types mentioned. Neither does it take into account that traumatized women may act contrary to the personality type they naturally belong to. Yes, there are a lot of useful truths in the package, but it is more or less useless if reality becomes a little too complex. Yes, you may be a little more successful in picking up dates, but in the long run a woman is an expert in finding out that you're simply acting her type of man without naturally being one. All in all, it's just a big scam like the rest, and not really useful for nothing. -You'll just as easily get by with women if you're smart and have social skills above the average.
