Yes this looks great, and is a clever idea. BUT...the add says " the card box and card can be
checked by the spectator". This is only half true. The box CAN be looked at, but (unless you want to
be busted) there is no way that anyone can touch or look too close at the card. You must go south
with it right away, or just run! Are there ways to DEAL with it? Yes.. But you can NOT hand out the
same card and for the add to say this is just misleading.

The gimmick is very visible and doesn't work well and Ebbytones doesn't explain how to do it well! I
don't recommend this trick at all.

Love the simplicity of this trick. Reminds of Nicolas Lawrence early tricks that use that certain
gimmick. I will use this a lot in my walk around performances!

I give it 2 stars for inventiveness. Notice that all of the Non Verified Buyers said gimmick is easy
to make. I am well versed in gimmick card making (having dabbled with Hondo and Vogt cards). This is
not an easy construct...esp if you are a stickler for details of appearances and mechanics of the
gaff itself. Let me put it this way, my 4 attempts were lackluster and lacked zip, surely in dire
need of Viagra. Instruction is not good as others have said.
I never really leave a review for a product but I must say....this one got me stumped. I had to buy
it. Once I watched the video and found out how to make the trick (YES IT DOES REQUIRE DIY AND ALOT
OF CRAFTING), I was like "Ok, this is a cool idea for a trick." So clever!! When it came time to
watch the tutorial on how to make it, it lagged detail. No one talks. Only subtitles on screen
explaining what some of the materials you need to make it and how to make it. My gimmick turned out
bad the first time around (and I'm a crafty DIY guy when it comes to making magic tricks) but I will
experiment on using different "materials" (you'll understand what I mean once you watch the
tutorial) for the gimmick. So the trick? So clever. Great idea. Woulda never guessed how it was
done. The building of the trick? Not hard. You have be crafty and like doing DIY magic tricks. Other
than that, GREAT TRICK!!! MUST ADD IT TO YOUR CLOSE UP CARD TRICKS! DEFINITELY WORTH THE MONEY!!
The effect is very clever and will fool just about anyone. The gimmick takes a little bit of work
to construct, I would have preferred to pay a little more and get the gimmick pre-made.
