Personally I like this, as a result of liking this I will be filming my justification for going back to the box which also acts as a subtle convincer that disarms the spectator. Yes there are a million and one similar devices and each have their pro's and cons. Personally I quite like this and will use it.

There was an alakazam live on the 14th where Peter said you already had one along with a few others so maybe you have had chance to get used to it!
You should have said you were looking for a business card peek though, there is a book called harpacrown with a couple of crackers in, that I feel are better than this (the author goes so far as to say placing a card back into a stack makes no sense if you can believe it!) If you want to find out more about it there was an entire alakazam live dedicated to it ;-) |

Haha I've always said that it pays to have multiple ways to do things, which is why Harpacrown 2 has I think 4 variants of Free Will. I also have more devices like this than I can shake a stick at. There is a lot that I like about this little case.

For me one of the best reasons for going back to get a business card is, at the start of the routine when you give the spectator a card to do a drawing on you remove two cards. The second one is for yourself. After replacing the spectators card and closing the box you pick up your card and find it already has a drawing on it from an earlier performance so you can't use if and have to get another one. I've been using this for years and it flys by people.

Hi, what I do is very similar.
I just take the second card and start to draw. Then I find I was of on the wrong track and say I have to start over again. Here I get the new or second card for me or the third overall. Sometimes I do this more than once. Hey mind reading is a tough business and this serves as a reminder. You try it... Cheers Stefan |

I have heard, from one whose opinion I respect, how good this actually is. So have ordered and currently await. I am hoping it will be with me later today.

Simple question.
To those that own this, are either of these possible?: a) Turn the open case so that they can see what you are doing to the stack or b) Turn the open case so that they can remove a card for you Unless you can be more open with the moment you reach in to the very stack their drawing is in, as cool as the workings behind this might be, I just can't see how workable it's going to be, especially compared to other existing methods that don't even require going back to the 'drawing area'. |

Yeah, that really is a great idea. I still think I'll pass on the Stealth Case, but this is good!
