Pros
1 It looks visual and looks clean at the end

2 Good production quality

Cons
1 Spectator can't examine the bill unless you switch it , but the bill looks normal on both sides , you really have to convince the spectator to believe that the bill is normal at the end , otherwise they will ask to examine the bill

2 This trick is designed specifically for US dollars .. not for international currency .. I stay in India ... there will be two problems if you are using international currency ....
a) If your currency is having different sizes, you will have to shape your money to make it same size and it may looks weird though to that particular money
b) If your currency doesnt have borders ( kind of box at the edge just like US dollar ) , you will have to use another extra prop which will stay out-jogged on the edge of the money ( you have to hide it by folding it or covering it from the spectator
c)Because of your currency don't have borders,to execute the change is going to be quite difficult

3 It may have some snapping sound while executing the change

4 I dont think you can do a very slow gesture just like in the trailer ( I'm not sure because I use international currency but I dont think you can do it that perfect on live audience , maybe only on camera )

5 For international buyers that have different size of currency , you really can't retrieve your money back from the gimmick made as you have to cut and shape it to make it same sized . For US buyers , perhaps you can tape back together the piece as you will not have to really cut many parts of the bill .

6 No extra prop is provided , you can only make 1 gimmick with the props supplied

7 Patrick didn't explain the performance for international currency even actually to execute the change is different from the US buyers ..
