Let me start with the good,
This will fool anybody who is not either an experienced
magician or a very observant and intelligent individual. It is extremely visual and powerful, both
the gimmicked and ungimmicked versions. I have learned a few tricks from Justin now and he is good
at teaching the performance and creating the gimmicks.
Now, the less than good,
This trick comes with everything you need, unless your wallet is a color other than black. Not a
big deal, but just know that if you have any other colored wallet, you will have to make additional
purchases.
That is the worst I can come up with, it's really cool and fun to perform, and
easy to create patter for the trick. I am still uncomfortable with letting a stranger hold 400 of my
dollars, but its worth it to amaze them. If I can I usually put the money in a woman or small
child's hands, the most a female will do is tease, and a child will just be so shocked they won't
know what to do.
Totally awesome, both gimmicked and ungimmicked are amazing, several
routines you can run, the price is a bit steep for what you get, but that's magic, eh?

This Effect sets the new standard. This is the bar by which others now will judge bill changes.
Justin Miller does a very thorough explanation throughout this DVD. The ideas by Paul Harris and
many others on this DVD are very well worth the price.
I am not normally a gimmick toting
magician, but this one, youll never know its there...I really mean that, its a "set it and forget
it" gimmick, but even with all of the ease of that, I actually prefer to non-gimmicked versions of
this effect.
I love the Hundy 500, I use it quite often, but this requires less effort and can
literally be done with the bills in your wallet, any number of bills (3 or more)and any
denomination. The setup is much easier, faster and this is far more user friendly than any bill
change ive seen.
I will be putting this into my strolling show IMMEDIATELY! On top of all of
the things I said in this review, Justin Miller even shows you openers, mid show and MANY closing
effects.
A MUST BUY! (Actually, Dont buy it. That way, Ill be the only one doing it) :)

This is amazing it's a lot easier to construct that the previous famous 500-dollar bill changes,
while the ungimmicked versions are genius alone and surpass previous gimmicked versions in my
opinion as you can end CLEAN.
The gimmicked version happens in the spectator's hands which
is the first time I've seen that incorporated. This is the definitive new standard now.

I just my received it and set it up and I have to tell you that it is the best money exchange I ever
bought. I have many others money tricks but this is to me the tops so far. As I watched the video
and practiced it- guess what! I combined it with the F1 Nitro Wallet and the results = made the
exchange
from $1.00 bills to $10.00 bills. The one dollar bills ended magically inside the
wallet. Amazing what you could with
"First Hand". I strongly recommend this great trick. So
stop reading these reviews and order yours right now! Good price!!!

this is so easy to do and clean. The angles are quite good too. Comes with everything you need, you
will only be using a dollar in the construction of the gimmick.

To be honest after watching the trailer I pretty much knew how to do it but I bought the dvd cause
knowing Justin there would be a move or two I don't know and I was right one of the set ups for the
gimmick caught me off guard but all in all I must say that Justin has done it again this is the
best method for bill changed and its super easy BUY IT!!!!

This bill change concept has just put all the others in retirement!Easy Money has been made much
easier!

If you're looking for a money-change trick, this is the one! Justin covers both gimmicked and
ungimmicked versions and multiple handlings of the the trick that allows so many possibilities!
The reactions are great and the gimmick is pretty durable. You have to make your own gimmick but
it's really not that hard to construct at all.
The ungimmicked versions are also pretty sly
and fun to mess with. I highly recommend checking this out!

This is simply one of the best purchases I have made on Penguinmagic. There are plenty of
interesting methods to First Hand taught on the DVD and among them "Bill Bound" is a killer. Imagine
disappearing a bill then having it reappear in the deck of cards held by the spectator, wrapped
around their selected card!
First Hand is a great addition to Extreme Burn 2.0. I usually
perform this first, then go into EB. Also, you don't have to use $100 bills if you're not
comfortable but instead use 20's, 10's, or even 5's.
It does take a little practice if you
plan on doing the gimmick version. (The only problem to fix is flashing the other stack of bills)
With that in mind, I'll give this 4.75/5.

i really enjoy this trick when i preform in streets(when im in new york)but when im in toronto where
i live the trick doesnt look as effective with canadian money. the reasone when is because for
canada all our bills are different colors. its just something should watch out for before buying the
kit, just make sure ythe money in your country looks similar in color.
other than that i
had no problems, a really great trick!!!
