As clever as the secret of this trick is, its not all that amazing. I performed this to a friend and
he immediately wanted to see the case. According to the dvd and as you see advertised in this
product, it says that the spectator can freely handle the case. Nope! In less than 10 sec, he
figured out the method. I was so embarrassed. To me, its not worth it.
I would have sent
it back to penguin but its not worth the hassle and me paying the shipping to try and get my money
back. I wasted my hard earned money. Don't get me wrong, penguin magic is an awesome site to
purchase magic and I would gladly post and support reviews for tricks. But sadly, not this one.

This is a very well made gimmick and I will be inserting it into my repertoire very soon. The
accompanying DVD suggests and teaches many great effects that can be done with it.
I am
taking 1 star away only because the reset, while very quick and easy, needs to be done away from
prying eyes. (You don't need to leave the room. It can be done in or behind your close-up case)

As I have said before in my reviews, I love gimmicks and making them. (Wished I would have thought
of this !)
I'm becoming a big fan of Mickael, MONEY SHOT is awesome.
This card
case does miracles, it requires no sleight of hand, and no skill, an idiot could use this case. (me)
The case is very well made and Mickael's teaching on the DVD is great, he goes thru at
least a dozen routines, but once you know the secret, your imagination will take over and you don't
need to watch, it's that easy
Is this case examinable ? It comes damn close. I see the
gimmick, (I'm a magician, dah !) but I have preformed this quite a few times since receiving it and
nobody has said anything.
It's going to be hard for Mickael to top this one.
SIMPLY AMAZING !!!

When I received this trick, I could tell there was something wrong with the box, but didn't know
what it was. The gimmick is very well made and can hardly be seen to a non-magician. I love this
trick and will use it a lot in the future.

As you saw the title, “this is horrible” let’s think about this... you have to build this yourself,
it’s fragile and doesn’t come with any protection. I mean come on, that’s not even my main problem
with this.
My main problem is that because you have to build this yourself and if you do
it wrong the gimmick doesn’t work at all. Oh yes that was the first time I returned this. I returned
this because the gimmick was super visible. That must have been because I built this wrong even
though I finished building the box. The second and final time I returned this I built the box even
more carefully and this time the gimmick wouldn’t activate or when I threw the box it only half
worked. This is one of those products that works for some people and doesn’t work for others.
Horrible!!!!!!
... it's not examinable. I gave the box (for examination) to my spectators and 3 of them have seen
something not clean. The gimmick makes a noise when you activate it and the gimmick doesn't work
properly each time. Be careful with this product, you could be disappointed. I bought the Blue
version on Penguinmagic, i bought the Red version in France (my country) and i have the same
problems with both versions... Not recommended !
This is an excellent switch utility. I read one of the reviews that said that his friend wanted to
inspect the box after the performance. I see how this would be the case when doing a color changing
card or a dollar bill to coin type of visual transposition but it is super spy deceptive for other
applications. With the right routining you can use this to do an incredibly clean signed--yes
signed, dollar bill serial # divination or you can have someone put any face down card into the box
and switch for a card to impossible location. What is more innocent looking than a empty card box.
