As a full-time working magician, this is just not practical. The gimmick is poorly made. Way to
expensive for what you get. There are better bill changes out there. I encourage you to seek
something else

I am a big fan of Extreme Burn and have made it up with large Monopoly money I printed myself. When
I saw this I had some idea of how it was done but find the gimmick that allows for a size change to
be very clever and startling.
The negatives are
1. It is not as bullet proof a mechanism as
Extreme Burn. I am sure practice will help but I have been doing Extreme Burn for years and am still
struggling with this.
2. It actually comes with fake us currency so the entire trick is ready
to go out of the box. The US currency seems to be made of something other than paper that will last
for a reasonable amount of time (and of course you could replace all but the gimmick with real
money) but the Monopoly money feels like thin papa ER (I cant be sure) and I’m not sure of
durability.
3. Although you could take it apart and figure it out no instructions are given for
remaking the gimmick and the Monopoly bills provided will not be easy to obtain on your own.

The gimmick is made of paper and will not last. Mine is almost worn out from a little practice. This
should have been an instructional video on how to make your own. I will probably print my own
monopoly money on non-rip paper and use real bills. The trick and method are good, just way
overpriced for a paper gimmick.

I am getting great response on this from the spectators at my weekly restaurant residency. One of
the things they notice is the change in size from Monopoly money to USD dollars. This is a keeper
and I am thinking I am going to purchase another one as a backup since the one I have will most
likely wear out from use.
The gimmick is made poorly. I returned the first set, upon receiving the second set, it's even
WORSE than the one I returned! you can't even use it without exposing the secret. also it looked
like someone used it for awhile. All in all, wasted $40 for something that I can't even use, VERY
disappointed.
