I can think of few other areas in life where customers would be happy to keep their fingers crossed that their £30 key fob was going to work. I was going to get this if only to see if it prompted some creative ideas in my head, but the sheer amount of defective units being reported is deeply concerning. Surely every unit should be thoroughly tested before release?

Luckily my one works perfectly!
Fantastic effect that will now always be on me. Only downside is I now have a key fob that my coins and keys all get stuck to Also, not sure why they didn't just chose the word "phone", instead of "bill", to eliminate having to do different versions. |

I ordered it and am already concerned after reading this thread on defective units.

Mine still works perfectly. Sorry to hear about those with troubles, I'm sure your dealer will sort it out for you. I'm liking it more and more.

Mine is perfect. Spent last weekend working this and it is great. Plays strong as expected and easy to do. A win win.
For the record I am UK and it using US version with no issues at all.

Mime works perfectly every time. I have been using it every day since I got it. The reset is easy too.

At first, I ran into a couple of issues, but eventually realized that it was "operator error". I was pulling gout the inside piece on a slight angle instead of straight down (or up), and in reseting it, I didn't have it properly aligned. Once I got the feel for it thought, it has worked 100% of the time.

Just a pain to have to wait several days until they receive mine and then they ship the new one. I wanted to try it out on my usual suspects (family members) over the Thanksgiving holidays but guess I'll have to wait until Xmas now. Oh well, not a big deal. Even though this one was a lemon, I believe it was in a very small percentage and I would still very highly recommend this trick. When it did work correctly it was a magnificent gimmick. My only nitpick is it being a little difficult to read. A lot of specs will have to get their glasses out if they are to read it. I can't even read the word "myself" because it's written kind of funky. Anyone else have one where the word myself ( in "I have committed myself") is difficult to make out? The letter "l" is kind of missing a small section so it looks like a dotted "i"? Myseif??? |

Just watched this on the wizard product review and it made me even happier that I passed on this. Talk about boring. And not only is it boring, there's barely any magic and any intelligent spectator is going to figure out at least part of the method. I'm sure the gimmick is as genius as everyone says. It's just a shame it was wasted on such a lame plot/effect. I get that people like it because it's easy to carry around and is always ready, but if you are a serious magician and you can't find at least three impromptu effects to perform that are 10 times stronger than this, you really should take up a new hobby. I know this is just my opinion and everyone will come on and bash me for it, but every time I see this demoed, the first thought that pops into my mind is everyone's lame uncle Frank that performs the 21 card trick at every family gathering. It's that bad. Again, just my opinion.

Don't you know anything, Emyers99! If Uncle Frank can't make the 21 card trick work it's down to his presentation. I've never had anyone tell me they're bored watching it!

Couldn't AGREE more with Martin on this its all about personality presentation and then effect in that order in my opinion . Having said that I think the free will plot talking about free choices in life or destiny is a wonderful hook so it's a great effect too so a winner all the way 😄

Jim Carey couldn't make this effect interesting or entertaining. That aside, again, where's the magic? Half the people are going to assume you just guessed. The other half will see right through the I/you ploy. Let's check back in a year's time and see how many people are still using this. About as many that still use Rattled is my guess.

Eric,
What gives bro? I have not had that happen even once. I even received applause from a small informal group. Believe me, I have stuff that describes exactly what you are saying and I have tried and tried but it still got the blah Blah reactions. But not this one. Decomposing Into Good Reactions.
