The method here is all right. You can indeed repeat this trick in the same party and not have the
same outcome (though you can't do it for the same person). You can even let them examine the deck
afterward, since it's not gimmicked in any way. The "wallet", however, lacks a lot.
First
of all, it doesn't look like any wallet you've ever seen or used. The wallet has been designed in
order to correctly predict one of many possible outcomes, making each seem like it was the only
prediction. That means you have to remember where each correct prediction is in the leather thing,
and then have your spectator pull it out that way.
The idea has promise. It has the
potential (with work) to be better than a Z fold wallet, but it needed to spend more time on the
design table before being released like that. Instead, you are looking at a confusing looking
leather thing that you have to tell the spectator is a wallet. Yes, you can get your business card
in their hand this way so I guess it's good for that, but I think you'd do just as well using a
Mirage Deck and regular business card wallet. You couldn't repeat the effect and the deck couldn't
be examined, but it would still be impressive.
Totally unconvincing wallet
