Product description : Are you ready for the most visual bill change ever ? Well, don't you feel every product with bill looks like is going to revolutionize everything ? In this case, I do agree it's one of the best gimmicked bill change I've seen in a long time. You show, with the euro version, a 20€ bill then, just by waving your hand over it, change it to 50€. With a quick flik, it changes to a 100€ one ! In the $ version, you show a $1, remove ink from it and with a flik, turn it into a $100.
Price and where to buy it : This is sold at $49.95 and you can find it in nearly every Murphy's magic « partner » shop !
What you get : You get a small cardboard box, very thin, with inside, the DVD. The DVD is well made and easy to understand. When you get the gimmick, I do think you will understand how it works in a couple of minutes. Speaking about the gimmick, you get it fully made (I do believe it's been handmade, very precisely), so you can use it right out of the box. I will only be speaking about the euro gimmick, the one I have, it's amazing ! The bills are fake but they look like real ones, it has been printed on paper. The quality of it is simply amazing, well, if you get too close to the bills, they may seem a little bit big. But overall, I'm very happy with what I receive, the price is high but the quality is here.
The pros and the cons : Here is the core of my review, let's begin with the cons, as I will usually be doing, I prefer to keep the good things for the end.
THE CONS :
As I said, it's a little bit expensive but considering the work that has gone into it and the quality of the gimmick, you won't be disappointed when you will open the case.
This is a problem only with the € and the £ version but the 20€ bill looks a little bit big when you show it too close to the spectators (which is not a problem with $ since they are the same size).
THE PROS :
Gosh it's visual ! It's one of the most visual bill change, along with extreme Burn, that I've seen in my life. You can do both changes with no cover if you want to, or wave your hand over it to do the first one.
You get 2 changes in one gimmick and at the end, you can show the 100€ bill front and back. It's not directly examinable, you have to switch it if you want to give it away (from the hundred performances I've done with it, nobody asked for it).
You get the gimmick already made ! How often in magic people say “Well, they should have charged a little bit more and provide a fully made gimmick”, it's the case right here. The price is, in my opinion, justified.
It's the perfect trick to carry in your wallet on a daily basis, you are now ready to do a stunning illusion even if you don't have anything on you.
Tricks and routines with money connect with people, they do love it !
Overall rating : This is something I will definitely use, it works well ! It's a keeper in my wallet, pack small, play big, 4/4 hearts.
As for the difficulty level, you have to get used to the gimmick but when you get the knack, it's very easy, 2/5 stars.
