Review
A really good trick that I'm sure that when presented properly can produce astounding results - however, all the times i've shown anyone that's not slightly drunk, they've not really understood why it's amazing that their card is not in the wallet.
The wallet is a simple plastic affair, with one clear side and one opaque, and the cards are good ol bike pokers.
The effect is easy to do - you just gotta remember to reset it properly!
Overall
Erm... given the choice to have my time again, I probably wouldn't buy this as it's a bit 'random', if you know what I mean.
I'd give it, say, 6/10, purely on ease of use and I'm sure someone with a bit more experience than me could make use of it somewhere, out there, beneath the pale moonlight... (sorry, excuse me for bursting into song)
