I have done a comparison of the two peek devices I have used. Which I hope is of use to some of you who cant decide which is best.
The sight unseen case 2 and Stealth wallet
SUC2 approx £40
DESCRIPTION
This is a very soft leather case that is slightly bigger than a credit card, well made and the gimmick will last for years. It could be used day to day, but only really for upto 3 credit cards and perhaps a single piece of paper money.
PEEK PROPERTIES
The peek device is very simple to use and there is no need, to open up the wallet once the item is inside it. This wallet should last forever, without the need for a replacement. The wallet also lends itself to a few other applications.
It is ideal to be used instead of the wallet supplied with deep astonishment.
It is also a very good wallet for using with a swami, to provide predictions.
STEALTH WALLET £25
DESCRIPTION
A very well made leather wallet, slightly sturdier leather than the one used for the SUC. It is practical to use day to day, for paper money and upto 4/5 credit cards.
Though I am not too sure what effect the gimmick would have on the credit cards. If anyone knows, I would be grateful if someone could confirm this is ok as am using it at the moment, and don’t want to ruin my credit cards.
PEEK PROPERTIES
The gimmick in this wallet is totally different to the SUC, however again it should last for years.
The peek does need a bit more work than the SUC, you need to re open the wallet, once it has been closed, although this does not present a major problem, in a well rehearsed routine. Unlike the SUC this is the wallets only use.
CONCLUSION
Both wallets offer different options, if you are looking for a wallet that you can use in real life, rather than as a one off magic effect, then the stealth wallet is the best option.
If you are looking to read the mind of a spectator that has not written anything down yet, and you wish to produce a prediction form your wallet, then the SUC cannot be beaten.
I have owned both these wallets, the only thing being, the SUC is something I would tend to carry in addition to my normal wallet, which was not something I wanted to do.
