Recommended, with hesitation: 2 out of 5 stars.

The items was well-constructed, with quality materials; however... IT WILL NOT ACCOMMODATE NORMAL BUSINESS CARDS. The pockets are TOO SHORT by about 1/8" and do not fit standard US-sized cards.

After attempting to place my own cards in the wallet, I used two different Penguin Magic business cards (from the Santa Monica expo - review pending) - and neither card fit. If you are willing to trim the business cards (perhaps using scissors, or a razor blade) to fit, the wallet could be considered adequate. Unsure if the sizing issue is limited to one-off, and unwilling to purchase another to check production.

Regards construction and materials, the wallet is well-constructed with high quality materials and stitching; the "secret" is well-designed (simple) and functions as described (with folded card).

I did not attempt to return the product, and will instead trim 1/4 inch off my current cards to use in this wallet. I was, however, disappointed that it was not designed to fit a standard business card size - as was implied and described.
