Too fragile / not practical Report this review

I know that sometimes people buy things with ridiculously high expectations. I usually have a very open mind when purchasing items knowing that there is usually a lot of sleight of hand or concealing necessary to make different items work. However, having said that this gimmick is just way too fragile I watched the entire 1 hour video before ever even touching my gimmick so that I would know exactly how to handle it without breaking it. In spite of the fact that I did everything that I was instructed to do with the upmost respect for the gimmick and a very gentle hand my gimmick broke within 2 minutes of use. I repaired it and again was very delicate while breaking it in and had the string on the opposite side of the box break. I don't think that the gimmick is very well concealed I can see it from across the room. I also found the handling of the cards while trying to use the gimmick to be quite difficult and just outright unpractical. The truth of the whole thing is it's a pretty good idea but I feel that it is very overpriced for the quality and practicality of the item. You could make this gimmick yourself after having purchased a few inexpensive items off the internet. I personally would rather have had an instant download with instructions on how to create this gimmick myself. In other words, reduce the price to $12 and give instructions on how to make it and I would have given you a better rating.
