The headline says it, Jay is a great teacher. I really like his presentations and this trick is very easy to do and understand for anyone. All of his DVDs which I've purchased have been high quality and he goes into great detail and really puts it into every day person language. Anything with his name on it I generally look at and typically buy. Fun effect, easy to make gimmick, great teaching earns this five stars from me.

When looking at this, you would think it is a terribly old and unoriginal effect. However, after viewing the DVD, I can say that this isn't so. Sankey has some interesting ideas here.

This is a clever way to do a practical rattle box. This has been touched on by many magicians, and Sankey has an interesting and rather practical method for doing it. His handlings on the DVD are alright, and you may use this.

It's cool, but not revolutionary. For what it comes with, I would almost rather it be a bit cheaper.

Overall, I'm happy with it.

This is a really great product. As Jay says "you already have a card box why not use it." This "gimmick" allows you to use your card box in ways you never dreamed. Now it does not just have to sit there in the way or just hold your cards. Now it can be "PART" of your magic performance. Rings, coins, dollar bills and any small item can be made to vanish and appear or transpose with an item in the card box. And before the item is even in the box your spectator can "HEAR" it inside. Though the box is "gimmicked" your cards still fit inside the box with no problem. Any style of card box. When your cards get to used looking just move the gimmick to a new box, no problem. Takes only a minute or two to trick out your card box and your ready to amaze. This is a great idea and a great way to accomplish it. As always Jay gives you plenty of ideas to work on. Some really nice routines. Thanks for listening.

Really good clean and easy to do more of a utility device if you think outside the box there are multiple tricks you can do with this highly can recommend this especially for beginners looking for an easy yet impressive trick

This is not Snakey's best work but it is a clever way to convincingly get a borrowed object into a card box. The card box can not be examined or showed cleanly on both sides, but it can be placed in their hands. The audio producing gimick is what is so mazing about this. It's simple but has the power to do some amazing stuff and the DVD is chock full of ideas and stuff to do with this. If you have Sankey's secret files, you can take this a step further and make the borrowed object appear inside a matchbox that was inside the card box.

So simple, but so effective. A great finish to your card routine.

Very good magic and easey to make the box AND it is good DVD. The unbelevable discount,first class service and fast first class post made this my magic buy of the year 2012. Roll on 2013, I have already made my first 2 orders of 2013 from Penguin

It seems lately that I can't make an order without purchasing a Jay Sankey product. That being said, I am very glad I ended up with this one. Jay Sankey has given this gimmick a tremendous amount of thought and he teaches a wide range of effects on this particular dvd. I particularly like the ideas he has with transposing borrowed finger rings and using this as a lead up to something bigger like a ring flight type effect. Definitely a product I'd recommend.

this is still a great piece of magic. With a good presentation and showmanship this will make a good addition to my existing routines and sets.

The only down fall is the box can not be shown empty to some extint. You can show all sides of the box with clever handling. I was looking for a way to show an empty card box for an effect I already do (silk vanish to card box), and thought this might be the way to go. I bought it when it was on Penguin's Cool Box special for around 2 bucks,so I figured Id give it a shot. Even though it did not acomplish what I wanted it to do, after watching the dvd with Sankeys teaching of it, I was excited that I had bought it.

I have to admit that I was not a big Sankey fan. I always seen his stuff on penguin, and the sheer amount of material he sells made me think he was just an inventor trying to make a buck. I stand corrected, Sankey has put together a real gem with this one, with some real world pratical applications for the ordinary card box.

Sankey, much to my surprise, is actually a great teacher and presents his real world ideas with clarity. Slieght of hand with this effect is minimum at best. If you can work a TT, perform a switch, or finger palm a coin, you can do Pandoras Box with little problems. Oh, and Sankey goes on to teach some simple sleghts for beginners in the DVD. I really liked his mercury card fold, and he teaches it very well. I really got my moneys worth with this one, though I wouldnt pay the 20 bucks its going for now.

About the gimmick. What can I say, I see it lasting a very long time. In fact once you get the idea of how the gimmick works and do need to replace it,you can very easily make your own.

Over all, Great product, minimal slieght of hand and excellent teaching and concepts.I cant beleive I got a great peice of magic for 2 dollars, thats just unheard of now a days. Peace!!
