Great trick, terrible gimmicks Report this review

This trick is great, from the performance I already knew how it worked. I just didn't want to spend the time to make my own gimmicks, so I bought this product even tho each gimmick basically costs $4.

Sadly the included cards are just terrible made. They look like they were made from someone who does card splitting for about a day or two.
You can see on every single card, on both sides like 100 creases on the thin layers, because they probably were just wripped apart without any care at all to be fast and make as much of them as possible. In my opinion you just can't use them. Because spectators are not stupid... why would be every card normal and these have 100 creases across the faces?

So the trick is great, but because I spent $40 dollars for 10 gimmicks that I now have to do myself anyways it won't get more than two stars

You must have just got a bad batch or cards. Which I agreecisnt acceptable, but I've bought 4 packs of gimmicks and not one card was below acceptable quality.

If the gimmicks are really so badly made I wonder why you don't return them to Penguin for replacement? They are usually very fair in handling genuine complaints.

I would like to purchase this but appears refills are not available unless I purchase an entire trick again. Is that correct?
