I truly love my LePaul style jacket wallet. However, I sometimes wish to preform the routeins I would preform wile table hopping, when I am in my street clothes and do not have the luxury of a sport coat or a suit to store the wallet in. This summer is going to be hot so if I am preforming walk around or in the street it would be nice to have a hipstyle wallet to use. I have done some research and so far the best looking ones are
Mesika`s Wallet
http://themagicwarehouse.com/cgi-bin/findit.pl?x_item=TA1332
The "Triple Threat" wallet ( As recommended by Aaron Delong in his effect "Belive"
http://www.rfaproductions.com/products/t3.htm
or the basic
Card to wallet
http://themagicwarehouse.com/cgi-bin/findit.pl?x_item=WA3227
I would like to use the wallet as my every day wallet, and also palming is not a problem for me.
Any recomendations?
thanks,
Chris

Hey Chris,
Yup, I have the perfect solution. Tony Miller and RFA Productions has a brand new wallet coming out. Although, it isn't a wallet at all. It's an insert that fits into your existing regular wallet that will make all of your dreams come true.
Imagine being able to just add an insert to your wallet when you want to perform and be on your way. No switching your driver license in and out to make your magic wallet look legit anymore. Just add the insert and off you go.
I'm not sure it has been released yet, but it is Tony's new brain child. It is coming soon!!!
I have mine already and it is fantastic! You will need to palm. But the load is "oh so easy". Like slipping into a warm bath.

This is the second teaser I've seen regarding Tony's new insert, and I'm dying to get my hands on one. I've been using his Triple Threat since it was first released, and I highly recommend it, especially for a "no Palm" solution.

Well I would most likely use my magic wallet as my normal wallet but I must check out this insert

I do the same thing. I have a magic wallet too that I use as my everyday wallet. I'm just saying to imagine the possibilities here.
Magiguy,
It is coming soon. I promise. The other thing I promise is that you will not be disappointed. The load and the production of the card are a thing of beauty.
And the craftsmanship is what you come to expect from Tony. Top notch.
I don't know the details on a release date, but its been fun playing with this thing. If my new Believe DVD comes out before he drops this, you'll at least get to see it there first. You'll also get to see some amazing loads for the Triple Threat wallet too by my pal Marty Miller.

You might want to wait a bit to see the specs on the new insert. It sounds great! With that said, I use the Triple Threat as my everyday wallet (without the insert) and it is a terrific, no-palm CTW solution. I also have the Hip Pocket Bombshell wallet (also by Tony Miller) and as good as it is, I do still prefer the 3T. I'll certainly be picking up the new product, but given Tony's reputation for quality and service, that pretty much goes without saying. I buy just about everything he releases, sight unseen. You just cannot go wrong.

Take a look at the Jerry O'Connell Billfold wallet. It's functional, easy to load, high quality, and I use it as my everyday wallet. Worth taking a look!

Charles,
I agree, Jerry O'Connell stuff has been very impressive. However, I like Tony's innovative ideas. The Triple Threat is just tough to beat. I was using it up until about a month ago as my regular wallet too. I switched for Tony's Hip Pocket Mullica after seeing Nate Kranzo work with it.
I would definitely get a Triple Threat. I can't wait for everyone to see the loads that are taught on my DVD for the Triple Threat. If you don't have one now, you will after seeing these loads. Oh so easy!!
The insert is wicked too. It is a different strokes for different folks kind of thing. Some guys like to have a regular wallet. Some guys want a magic wallet they can use as a regular wallet. Well now you can have both; a regular wallet with an insert that makes it a magic wallet. It is the best of both worlds.
You guys are going to love it!

Well palming is not a big problem for me. Also, I don't want to be doing anything fishy with the wallet and the cards. So can you use a palming method with the triple threat?
Thanks

Meco,
If a palming wallet is what you want, get the new insert from Tony when it comes out. The Triple Threat is an easy no palming wallet. Yes, with the Triple Threat you can palm too if you'd like, especially since the insert in the wallet is a Mullica type load.

Well, back from LVMI. The Modifier got excellent reviews from ppl like Allan Ackerman, Apollo Robbins and Rick Maue among others. I am sending it out for playtesting among some of the folx yall know. I intend to include their suggestions and ideas in the instructions. So I will have more news for ya soon.

Thanks Tony! You had not given the wallet insert a name last I had talked with you. I like the Modifier. It has a great ring to it.

Ok...Updates... The wallet is done...But perhaps wallet in the wrong term... The Modifier is an insert that can be attached to your billfold or breast pocket type wallet and convert it into a top loading type card to wallet.
As to construction, it is a top grade leather with heavy stiching, so it will last longer.
It will attach to billfolds
As a card to wallet, it works beautifully. But the really cool feature is that you no longer have to hope that the wallet you use is "right for you. The Modifier simply goes inside your current wallet and ...Tah DAH! It is now a perfectly functional card to wallet! And if you see a new billfold you like, you can simply transfer it over! And if you are working a formal type show and want use a breast pocket type wallet. If you want to use a hip pocket wallet with a chain on it, go ahead... Just transfer it into that!
Basically it gives you the use of multiple card to wallets, without having to buy multiple expensive magic wallets. I hope that helps.
So far it has gotten the thumbs up from Apollo Robbins,Allan Ackerman, Rick Maue, Aaron DeLong and many others... The retail will be $50.00 but I will have a deal for Café folx. It would be out now, but I am in the process of gathering additional ideas from various folx to include in the instructions.

I had brunch with Tony and his wife Rose yesterday and you won't believe the amazing load Tony has come up with this wallet. Additionally, I got a chance to see some of the routines he is going to include with this product. You are absolutely going to love it.

Ok, news. I have tried it out in vegas and San Diego. It has gotten excellent reviews from people like Allan Ackerman and Apollo Robbins and JC Wagner and Rick Maue and many others. So now I am just gathering the instructions and ideas from folx like Curtis Kam and Aaron DeLong and others.
It will be released by me and a couple of other dealers. NO mass release.
So far, the Modifier works on hip wallets, Breast pocket wallets, chain wallets, and one of the cooler ideas was to attach it directly to a card clip or a business card wallet.
Or to quote myself...
As a card to wallet, it works beautifully. But the really cool feature is that you no longer have to hope that the wallet you use is "right for you. The Modifier simply goes inside your current wallet and ...Tah DAH! It is now a perfectly functional card to wallet! And if you see a new billfold you like, you can simply transfer it over! And if you are working a formal type show and want use a breast pocket type wallet. If you want to use a hip pocket wallet with a chain on it, go ahead... Just transfer it into that!
Basically it gives you the use of multiple card to wallets, without having to buy multiple expensive magic wallets. I hope that helps.
As I said, the important thing in my point of view is that it allows you to essentially "make" your own card in wallet with the wallet you find fits your style.
It will retail for $50.00 in USA funds with complete as I can make them instructions. As stated in the previous entry, it should outlast your wallet and be easily transferable to a new wallet. In fact you can switch it from a hip wallet to a breast pocket wallet in less than a minute if you are going from a informal to a formal situation.
If you ever get to a point where words have no meaning, you're probably talking to a dog.

I am in the process of finishing up the instructions. I have gotten ideas from Curtis Kam and Apollo Robbins and Jeff Pierce and Frank Yuen and many others. I will put all the tips in the instructions. It will retail for $45.00... That is $20.00 bux cheaper than any of my other wallets. And while it is a good deal, as it will outlast the wallet you put it in, I will be offering a special for Café members.
So keep your eyes open hear and it will be available on my web site.

Talk to ya later!

Well, folx, it will be out soon. I am busy compiling ideas etc. Out of curiosity, I am wondering if the following idea would appeal to people. Modifier with PRINTED instructions for $45.00... Or you could order it with emailed pdf instructions for $40.00... Just a thought. Let me know whatcha think!

Either is fine. A pdf would be my personal choice, but whatever is most beneficial to RFA is the way I'll go.
