The wallet is extremely well made!

The passports provided are obviously fake. ANYONE who has seen a real passport will spot the difference close up. A real passport is printed with a thick, leather-like paper that has a texture and gold embossed. These are printed on light card stock, and both came smudged. It will work in parlor or stage EXCEPT for the volunteer . . . That volunteer can blow the whole thing. The one in the video that Gregory uses is not the one provided which tells me he is aware of this problem.

This is false advertising.

No fake credit cards are provided, and you need double of each. Thankfully you can use expired ones, or go to Target or Walmart and by a few PRELOADED ones.

The wallet is extremely well made, but I would be careful using Gregory's routine until you have a couple real or realistic passports.

If the passports looked passably real I would give this 5 stars. Since they don't, the routine is useless until you find something else.

I am VERY disappointed since I did buy it for the routine, not just to get the nice wallet.

I thought the passports I received were pretty well made and would pass in parlor / stage situation. Greg Wilson recommends in the download to use a real expired passport first and one of the duplicates for final revelation. This makes a lot of sense, and I was going to do this but I think it is not really necessary at all unless you will do this for extreme close-up presentation. Anyway, You are a performer putting on an act, so what if it is a reasonably realistic stage prop , it still will vanish from the wallet and appear elsewhere.
