I just got this and right off the bat I am extremely disappointed. The packaging is a tiny envelope big or small enough to just fit just the starbucks card that would be fine but the trick is in pieces. You have to build it and to do so you will have to buy 3 different glues.
This trick is what you think it is just you have to make it. You will have to go buy all the glues, do the gluing, folding sewing and all the setup.
Ridiculous. Most magi's have some type of this card in their inventory as do I and I can tell you I have bought and own gimmicks of this sort that are PREMADE and great quality at a great price.
For the price this should have been made already. LOL sew go buy a bunch of glue fold put together hahahaha.
Probably going to send it back as the effect isn't very good to justify all the bad also the card once setup is thick and can easily be seen. The trailer isn't very good so I should have known better.

I think this might be good. Don't follow along with the video. He will tell you how to make it in such a way that it will mess up your materials then after all of that mentions "I use tape". Well why the (&*%^ did you just have me ruin my stuff with glue?!?!

This is an amazing effect. First off, let’s take a moment to acknowledge that they thought of everything. Good job Jeff and josh! This is a fast 2 phase routine that fits in your wallet. You get a few bits of great magic. First, the dollar bill jumping out of the Card. Brilliant! As hag happens, the $25 changes to $24. Such a sexy thing to add. Then you make a $10 appear and the $24 changes to $14. Then everything is handed out. It’s truky examinable. As I said, they thought of everything.

The download is very clear in instruction, and josh and Jeff both go over heir own handling.

There is some construction but the video shows you what you need to do.
And the best part is, you do not have to cut up and bills like with similar effects. You don’t even need a $10 to do the effect. Everything excluding a $1 bill is included.

I give it 5/5. But it now!!

I've had Withdrawal for a few months now and even though I haven't gone out into the real world and performed it yet, I absolutely love it. It takes a concept that is highly abused in the magic community right now and takes it to a totally different super cool very practical level. I can't say much other than if you like what you see in the trailer that you should just go ahead and purchase it. (There are some arts and crafts but they are not very difficult.)

Josh and Jeff always put out great material. Highly recommended.

Josh Janousky showed this to me last year and it blew me away. You aren't just getting another gimmick to use once for Instagram and then throw it in the junk drawer, you are getting the perfect effect to keep in your wallet at all times. Magic with everyday object is great and a Starbucks gift card is something almost everybody has. What you see in the trailer is exactly what you get. You get two very cool productions of money and the best part is you end completely clean and can have the gift card examined! If you are going to carry one trick in our wallet at all times, I reccomend withdrawal 10,000%! Jeff and Josh have created a true miracle that every working magician should have! Pick this up now!

The method behind this effect takes a well known closeup apparatus, but dresses it up in a wildly different context. Basically this one gimmick allows for a visual appearance of the bill, visual change of the value on the card, and a hidden-in-plain sight ditch of the gimmick allowing for an examinable card at the end! This is honestly utilitarian thinking at its best. 5/5 Solely for the thinking/concept :)

Now, for the sake of completion and objectivity, there are a handful of small shortcomings as well that I feel are worth mentioning. First of all, the material used to activate the gimmick tends to be fragile. Mine broke in 2 days, so I had to replace it (not a huge deal... and most likely my fault). Also, you can't just take this out of your wallet right away to perform... you need a few seconds of misdirection to set the gimmick... again, not a big deal, but worth mentioning. Lastly I would say that the initial one time set up is decidedly more than minimal. It is certainly achievable by most, but be prepared to put a little time into it. I actually found that having to construct it myself provided me with insight into gimmick making I hadn't previously had. 3/5 for practicality.

That averages out to a 4/5! I recommend :)

Having worked restaurants for over 10 years I've noticed a trend of more and more people filming my magic for snap chat. Instead of getting upset.. I decided to take advantage. Withdrawal has allowed me to perform a quick visual appearance that those filming can shoe their friends over and over again.

I love it

I saw this live done by Josh and had to get it! I definitely wasn't disappointed, this trick is highly visual which is amazing and its super small and doesn't take up pocket space! Its also very easy to perform!!!
I think making the gimmick yourself shows you the ins and outs of the gimmick so you'll better understand how it works... And plus I can usually make the gimmicks better then what I usually get from companies... So A+ on this, well done Josh and Jeff!

I had the privilege to see this before the release. Withdrawal is just so modern and practical. Everyone knows Starbucks so having an effect that is relatable, practical(fits in your wallet), and visual is just what you need!

Josh and Jeff have created a real stunner here! This is excellent for strolling in a restaurant - so topical! The trick does require a little construction but nothing too difficult plus the techniques learned can be applied to other builds!

If you're looking for some great eye-candy for walk around or in a casual setting - add this to your arsenal!
