I bought my unit here in 2017 , used it about 6 times and forgot about it . Recently I found it
again and tried it out , it wouldn't work .I replaced the battery to no avail . I contacted Penguin
and they were really cool and helpful but it had past the time they could do anything about it so
they suggested I contact STUDIO@HUGOSHELLEY.COM . Let me tell you their customer service is null and
void . If theres an indication of trouble in your subject matter you will see their true colors.
Didn't even respond to me . Nothing . These Cons need to be exposed and the consumer needs to be
aware of whom theyre dealing with . This isn't a cheap item and let me tell you when you need their
help they wont be there for you . I cant believe how big of a group of chumps these clowns are , im
sorry for the rant but its justified and they so deserve it . Its my mission now to spread awareness
on their non existant after purchase customer service... Be the fooler not the other way around.
BEWARE !!!!

Great product , I mean awesome but does not live up to the hype if you have android , contacted Hugo
and was told were working on it , so for now the full capabilities can be achieved only with an I
phone... Dissapointing especially when you get the sense that they have no intention of making it
android friendly . Bottomline if you have android pass on this , if you have an I phone consider
it...

I was looking to purchase "INSIGHT" for a very long time. Unfortunately I couldn't find it anywhere.
The product was OUT OF STOCK no-matter which site I searched. I finally decided to hunt for, and
contact Mr. Hugo Shelley directly. I wanted to find out when "INSIGHT" will be available again.I was
easily able to get hold of him through the "The Magic Cafe" Forums.
Mr. Shelley was kind
enough to send me the Pro-Edition ( before release). The service he provides to his customers is
simply unmatched. Seeing my enthusiasm for this product, he rush shipped this unreleased edition to
me.The following is my take on the product.
OVERVIEW: Your audience thoroughly examines
and shuffles the deck, and then chooses any card. A completely free choice. They can also put the
chosen card inside any envelope or anything (to hide it, if preferred). The performer can be out of
the room through out the process. Yet, you will know the chosen card, even before you enter the
room.
Combined with the iPhone app with Bluetooth connectivity to the RFI-Reader (The app
is $20), and a Bluetooth hidden earpiece($40 approx from Amazon.com), the possibilities really
become endless.
With the pro edition, you also receive 5 pre-programmed ESP cards. You can
separately purchase the RFI Tags, and Tagged cards(Blank or replacement playing cards) at
www.hugoshelley.com. You can easily program the cards, and the tags by yourself.
I know
that the price of the product is high. But the PREMIUM quality of the product, the cutting
edge-technology behind it, and the limitless possibilities by it, definitely justifies the price.
Even the packaging is of the highest quality.It is HANDS DOWN the most safest, and the cleanest
demonstration of X-Men like capabilities EVER MADE - PERIOD. The closest to Real Magic and
Mental-ism EVER. You may be a beginner or a Novice. But with this in your arsenal, you are always a
PRO. DAMN!!! THIS ITEM IS SICK.IT IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST PURCHASE I EVER MADE, AND YOU WILL TOO.

Best Magic product I’ve ever purchased
The possibility are endless and you are always one step
ahead.
Beautiful deck undetectable by nobody and you always know which card they pick.
You
can see trough a 3 card stack!!!
Anyone could shuffle for days and put the card in the box and
you can tell them the top 3 cards!!
That’s phenomenal!!
And the routines you can come up are
endless.
Buy it now before Hugo sells out!!

One of the best products ever created..

Carl Sagan said that any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic. Seems
that's what this is relying on.
I understand the price point is necessary to cover the cost
of the tech, and the engineering to apply it to this trick... but it is outrageous, for so
unimpressive an effect.
I get the distinct impression it was created to fool magicians, and at
that, it succeeds, for the moment. Not many magicians would guess the secret, as it is such a very
strange and costly means of achieving the effect.
This gets a rating of 3, not for the
price, but for the mediocrity of the illusion. It fails to impress.
