you'll get a gimmicked wallet made in China (sticker), over priced wallet , it's an old school
method gimmicked wallet.
Angle sensitive a bit less than 180°(too risky at the left side).
The leather wallet online costs 7$ from China site .
This could be a 10$ a tarbell instant
download, you could gimmicked any wallet with just an exacto-knife (can't show both side ) for that
price I was expecting better gimmicked wallet.
Too sad that some of magician are using their
reputation & fame for selling anything over priced .
I'd like to help you to get more use out of your purchase. The cop and load procedure actually has good angles - card magicians traditionally use the sequence to load a card case, something much smaller than a wallet! One does feel naked learning it, though. I'm easy to contact online and I'll answer any questions you have.
As for making the prop as opposed to buying one, one can absolutely construct a rough version. That's why it was included in my book "Interpreting Magic." I decided, though, that I wanted to have a PERFECT version of the wallet made, so I engaged five different manufacturers and had five prototypes constructed from scratch, then went with the best and added detail after detail, from choosing the right leather, lining and dimensions to having areas reinforced, polished and choosing the colors of the zipper and pull. You are correct that a junky version of the wallet could be offered for less, and knowing our world of magic it probably will be if you know what I mean. So, there's that to look forward to.
As for my using my "reputation & fame" (thank you for that) to get wealthy selling magic props, let me steer you clear of that notion - I don't want you going into the magic creation business with dreams of glamour and riches. Whether or not you like an item of mine, rest assured that I put things out because I want them to exist in the world. That's it.
A classic example of someone disappointed by the method and fails to see the incredible practicality and versatility of this wallet. Unless you’re loading the wallet in an inner coat pocket, there will always be a concern about angles. I absolutely LOVE this real-world worker wallet. I own 3 of them and I have zero issues using it as my everyday wallet.
David,
You are a class act. Great response. Thanks for making yourself available to your buyers.
Thanks for creating!
I’ve been working with the wallet and it has now become my signed card to wallet wallet! I occasionally use it for thought of card to wallet using ‘The Advocate’ card index by Daniel Madison.
The wallet is extremely well made and I will be investing into a second wallet as a backup when this one wears out.
Great product David, ThnQ!
