What do you mean by "hit it with your finger"? Sounds like you're talking about a snap change, but I can't be sure.

Are you on about the one which is shown in the clip from "show off with cards"?

Here's the link to the effect you're talking about:

The Snap Change

Personally, and others will agree, I don't think it's a trick in itself - it's a move that you can use in many, many situations.

But if you want to buy it and perform it on it's own, then go for it...

its more of a gimmick, i used to use it when you hold a card and flick it and it changeds to another, however know im trying to use a better one when you hold card turn it around to show back and then show face and it changes.

The snap change is great with controlled viewing angles (especially cameras) but is, in my humble experience, pretty limited. It's not something you can use on the street or in situations where you've got more than head on, face-to-face viewing.
