"I usually don't like coin boxes, but I could actually see myself using this!" -John Lovick

The P.O. Box ("Plastic Organic Box") is Nick Diffatte's complete remodeling of the classic German Coin Box. The P.O. Box is designed to look like an ordinary white bottle cap and manufactured in high quality, heavy duty plastic. Now, instead of looking like a magic gimmick, it looks like an organic object that can be easily rung into a causal performance situation without suspicion. The video instructions include multiple variations and Nick's personal favorite handlings to get you started on the path to creating your own routines in no time! (Made for US quarters.)

If you're working Okito boxes, this is nice Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 11th, 2021
The amount of sleight of hand necessary to execute this effect is minimal. However, the better your sleight of hand, the more that you can do with it.

I gave it 5 stars, but I haven't received my cap in the mail yet. My rating is based on the video instruction which is more than adequate.

My question is: After seeing my bottle cap box how will an audience react to my Ousterling boxes? I'll have to make up a line about doing more explosive magic...or something ;)

Okay But Lazy Design Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 19th, 2021
This is decent. It has a nice weight and can pass for a bottle cap... except IT IS NOT THREADED.
You may think people will not notice, and they don’t, but three times people have said, it looks different.

I have another bottle cap trick called rattled, and those caps are threaded.

The presenter went through pains to show the different versions. It would not have been a big deal to include threads in the plastic mold.

Also there was another review regarding providing an un-gimmicked cap. That would have been good as well.

It is important to go the extra distance to ensure the best product quality and customer experience.

Bottle cap from trash.... Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 23rd, 2021
I will reach in the trash as if to retrieve a bottle cap. Or, I set it up with the bartender or waitress so I can ask them for one. Then I ask my audience for some quarters. This makes everything so innocent. The cap is never questioned and I typically put the quarters in my pocket after the performance.lol I love the Okito box but don't always have it with me. This works so well when performed off the cuff I think I'm going to order a few extra just to have in my glove box and my undershorts. lol UsuallyAmazingKeith

Good, but missing something Report this review

I love this trick, I would have given it five stars but I really wish it had an ungimmicked cap you could switch out.

Nice addition to collection Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 2nd, 2021
I am glad I bought the P.O. Box as it is well made and has a good balance. I just wish it had a non-gimmick option as well. Other than that I feel it is a really nice addition to the Okito box world.

PO Box Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on May 5th, 2022
Huge fan of the okito box. This is a modern spin on a classic that presents as an everyday object. I have been able to work this in almost anywhere and it has been unquestioned. Packs small plays massive. This is a must buy product.

It looks like a bottle cap and cool little gadget. I just pretend i take the cap of my bottle of water and then proceed to the Magic!

the p.o.box Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on March 7th, 2022
Nick diffatte was able to create a almost impromptu perfect trick.by using a bottle cap {as a boston box} producing coins, effects like coins through the table or through the hand, vanishings, and a wonderful routine with a clear glass and 4 coins{quarters}. you can use quarters or foreigner coins the size of a quarter. If you already have a routine using quarters, you can extend that routine or enhance that routine
by incorporating the p.o.box in to. the prop is just a bottle cap{gimmick].That looks like a normal water bottle cap.
The video/explanation are good and clear. buy it

P.O Box great idea Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 2nd, 2021
The P.O. Box is a great idea to make it look like a water bottle top. Works great and uses quarters so you can carry it in your pocket as an every day carry. Which I do. The only reason I gave it four stars is that mine had a little yellowing color, which is OK. I just tell people this is the same bottle cap I have been carrying for years.

Great piece! Report this review
Verified buyer Pro Privacy ON (login to see reviewer names) on April 2nd, 2021
Easy to do. The weight allows a great hands free turn over as shown. Innocent looking.
No, there are no threads inside the cap - could have been a nice addition. No, there is no ungimmicked cap.
So What?
It looks innocent enough, you use it, maybe pull it off an empty water bottle, do the trick, accept the comments about how brilliant you are, and do another trick.
No need to switch, no need for an examination. Do it, amaze the spectators, and move on.
Blackstone didn't pass his floating light bulb around and an tell people to examine it, it's an ordinary light bulb!
