Invest in one. They’re worth their weight in gold. Pun intended.

Had one years ago but not too happy about having to buy another gimmick to make this work.

You could use less cards instead and also many have said theirs works from any position replacement from the get go.
I liked the security though of a slightly enlarged box particularly when the cards get a fraction weary.
It’s a great utility is this one imho. Gaz 😊


Hi Gaz do you literally have to unstick the box and re glue it ? Thanks


I actually used a new box and unstuck and expanded the new one and then took the gimmick out and put it in. You could just unstick the box it came in though Gaz 😊

Is anyone having a problem using the "Titanus" move? It's at the 45 minute mark where the card adheres to the outside bottom of the box and you steal it out. Mine will not work at all for this.


I have the same problem as well, any ideas?

Did anybody else receive an extra piece of shim?
Also, my gimmick only work with one orientation... coincidence?

So I pulled my card gimmick apart and yes, that "spare" piece of shim appears to have been pulled out of the card somehow.
I think I'm up to the DIY to repair it.

This might be the issue with mine. I didn't get a spare piece of shim though.

I love this but want to explore better routine ideas.
I want to end up with card to wallet without buggering up the empty box in my pocket.
The principle is so so clever though imho Gaz 😊

That would make sense. Due to the nature of the gimmick they should all work equally.

I don’t like the sticky tape etc so I have found away that doesn’t ruin the rest of the deck or transfer from card to card that then become tacky.
It doesn’t comprise the deck or the routines I actually want to use it for.
In addition you can remove the selection signed or otherwise with ease from the card box leaving the gimmick behind and load or peek as you please.
It’s a very good effect this one and the gimmick has already gone once the spectator handles and shuffles the deck Gaz 😊 ps thanks to my buddy Pegasus for recommending this one 👍👍

Any ideas on the best way to repair? Mine also fell apart and I'm curious what works that won't cause wrinkling on the card or bow it out so it's obvious there's a shim that's been glued back in place. Rubber cement? Super glue?

Received this today. This is really clever and provided with a 2 hours video. The bag routine is very good.

Thank you JP Vallarino!

Rubber cement IS always your friend when it comes to cards as it leaves the card soft
