Can it be used for Card To Sealed Envelope in Wallet?
Also, I know how this wallet works but can you tell me if the flap is magnetic? |

Just received this. Can't add much. It's awesome and has replaced my Real Mans Wallet as my everyday wallet. BTW, one aspect I love is how thin it is. Even with all of my credit cards and stuff in it, it's still a lot thinner than the real mans. Mostly because the chamber where the card appears is a lot thinner.

Also, will it be available with Penguin or Magicwarehouse in near future?
[Because I can buy only via Fedex and only these two offer reasonable fedex prices] |

Yes. I haven't even watched all the videos yet so I'm not sure it's covered but you could totally do a card to envelope with this wallet.

"Could you do card to envelope? Sure... But I have always thought it a bit silly in an impromptu situation. It kind of gives away the game that it was ANYTHING but a spur of the moment thing. In a formal situation... Sure... But walking around ... No... I like the way it is because I can do repeat card to wallet ala Kaps and others with NO reset or preparation. Which is how I do it.

Fair enough, Tony. But if I were to use this in a more formal setting or for a special client, I would use an envelope. Or your bill wrap which is just as impossible as an envelope and very cool looking. Can also repeat that one because nothing is torn.

I have added this to cart and then taken it out probably a dozen times since I first saw it. Finally just went ahead and purchased it and couldn't be more excited!

You did well. It is indeed a wonderful wallet. I just love the Dream Card feature. A lot easier than with any other wallet I know.
And the loading is just a dream come true... And it´s not that expensive either when you feel (and smell !) the quality of the wallet itself. I love the clipped bill feature that gets bigger reactions than I thought it would. And all so smooth and easy to do. I think you should rename it the Straightforward Wallet Tony ! It does what it claims (and then some). J. |

And, Cameron, I'm going to add the Transformer Wallet gimmick to the upper slot of the wallet as it love doing a CTW with the wallet already on the table. It will be mindblowing to the audience after finding a first card in the wallet with a regular palm.

Just got the speedloader plus today. Finally what I was looking for after all these years. This wallet is the perfect size for the back pocket and it loads about 10 times faster than the real mans wallet. I'm done buying wallets after getting this one. Ive owned Randy Wakeman's professional card to wallet, Mesika, real mans, triple threat, JOL small plus wallet, Royal, BKM, hip shot, and the hip pocket Mullica. This is hands down the best and the one I'm gonna use.

Can anyone compare this to the JOL New Hip Pocket - "Billfold" Wallet which is also a palm loading wallet?

And it doesn’t have that odd-looking compartment on the back of the wallet. The Speed Loader Plus is so thin with no apparent hidden entry points that it doesn’t resemble a "magic" wallet in any way IMO. Plus the leather is softer and nicer on the Speed Loader Plus. And Tony has posted videos that show how to use it for a good peek, how to steal a card from it, load it with rubber bands covering all sides, and load it into a paperclipped bill. Jim |

On 2014-01-27 13:43, Magic-Daniel wrote: The method of loading is actually pretty comparable. The JOL billfold was my wallet of choice prior to the Speedloader Plus. In terms of speed, I think both wallets do the job exceptionally well, but I definitely had to practice more with the JOL. The Speedloader Plus makes the load practically self working. To best capture this-- one must typically guide/feed a selection into the loading chamber of the JOL. One can literally just (absent-mindedly) drop the selection into the loading chamber of the Speedloader Plus, making it extremely fast and practically fool-proof. That's where it earns most of its points among workers who regularly use the card to wallet plot. I think it's worth noting that although the Speedloader Plus has no external pockets or flaps which some might consider a dead giveaway, the recommended handling requires you to bend the wallet in such a way that it might result in an unsightly crease with extensive use. I've already seen others contest this point, but logically-- leather is leather, and if you wear it in, it will eventually show signs of wear and tear. Is this necessarily an issue? In my opinion, not at all. When I used the JOL, the "fishy" external pocket/flap never actually came into sight during the performance. I even had fellow magicians ask what kind of wallet I used, because I would casually execute a simple paddle move to show both sides of the wallet before putting it back in my pocket. The same finesse can be utilized with the Speedloader if necessary to hide any signs of wear/tear. I absolutely love the bonus ideas and handlings that Tony offers with the wallet. They really make this item a worthwhile investment. Hell, some of the ideas can even be adapted to other wallets. I actually incorporated Tony's method of breaking in the loading chamber to the JOL and it greatly reduced its loading time to fractions of a second as well. I should note that the Speedloader Plus does not offer a zippered compartment to extract the card. I was/am slightly disappointed with this. I always loved highlighting the moment of impossibility with the JOL while directing everyone's focus to the zippered compartment. Despite this, the Speedloader enables several other impressive alternatives. The paperclipped bill is a favorite method to use in impromptu settings, but it is uber simple to load the card into a sealed envelope using the Speedloader as well. This is my preferred handling as I find the timing/beats of the revelation closely resemble that of opening a zippered compartment. Overall, I'm really pleased with the Speedloader Plus. It's a really nicely made, everyday wallet. I'll honestly still go back and forth between the Speedloader and JOL, just because I'm so fond of the zippered compartment. Both wallets are similar in methodology to load, but the Speedloader Plus makes it exponentially easier due to its chamber's size and orientation. Both wallets are made of really fine leather you wouldn't mind carrying in public. I would say that the Speedloader Plus is about half as thin, but the JOL has many more pockets and slots for credit cards, photos, IDs etc, so it depends on what you intend on practically using your wallet for day to day. Hope this insight helps. Feel free to PM me if you have any further questions. I really love both wallets and can speak pretty intelligently to both's features. RS.
