Combined with a post-it note and included pen, you’re set up and ready to perform at a moment’s notice. With multiple card slots, BlackMail panel & sleeve, ID windows and out to lunch strap - this is the ultimate mentalist’s wallet, packing an entire show right into your pocket. • Amazing, genuine leather and quality construction • The perfect impression utility • Out to Lunch Set Up • BlackMail Compatible (1 Gimmick Included) • Thin, easy to carry • Includes special Reveal Pen • Download Teaching by Bobby Motta, one of the world’s top mentalists Made from supple, genuine leather, Informant actually passes inspection as a real wallet - because it is!

Anyone has more info like size or demo video? |

Blatant exposure on the trailer. Looks like a nice product, but the irresponsible attitude towards secrecy must move the community to NOT support this.

Why would anyone want to use something that has been exposed on YouTube for everyone to see !

Disclaimer: Bobby and I are friends and we work together. But I have no financial or personal involvement with the project.
So, here's the thing. What bobby did is AWESOME. He provided you, the potential buyer, with the information you need to make an informed purchasing choice. If you like the idea, get it and blow people away with it (like I've seen bobby do countless times). If it isn't for you, something you now know because of the trailer, then don't purchase it! And regarding the "exposure" of the trick running its use... that hasn't been true with any other trick so I cannot imagine it being true with Informant (look up ambitious card tutorials on YouTube- there are tons and that hasn't stopped us from entertaining and fooling audiences with it! ). And, truthfully, this isn't an exposure video. It's a sales ad, a commercial, designed to inform interested parties (magicians) about a new product available for purchase. Unless you're approaching your lay audiences by asking if they've "seen the Informant wallet by bobby Motta?", what could they possibly search for? And, more importantly, if they're aware that the wallet plays an instrumental part in making the effect possible you've DONE SOMETHING WRONG! Now if after all that you still feel that the product isn't for you, that's ok. Don't buy it. But for those that do you'll be holding an extremely powerful weapon you can use to obliterate an audience. If you're violent like that. Ben Train

I see only one thing I don't like about this and have two questions:
I don't like the fact that it doesn't have any type of slot (credit card/money/ID) on the right side, but that must be due to the method for something. My questions are: what EXACTLY can you hold in this? What does it have as a normal wallet or would you say this is more of a business card case? And lastly, regarding the impression device, do you need a special pen or could we use a normal sharpie? (what I'm asking is, is it more similar to psypher/other pads or the ones that can use any pen? |

Finally managed to watch the trailer, I think it is a good trailer let buyer know what they will get instead of buy it and sell it if not your cup of tea.
I may not buy it after watching it since I am not comfortable enough to do the dirty work get the peek. And I guess it need special pen which comes with it as indicated in trailer. Can the wallet put any bill inside? |

Don't get me wrong, the product looks great.. but the demo is just way too much exposure.
Can't you at least make a password protected video or something? I'm sure you can get it handled in some way. Otherwise, you might as well explain everyone center t**'s and all sort of stuff for free next time lol. Andreu. |

Yes I agree. The important thing here is to 'shift units'
The promo did not have to be that blatant after all it is yet another peek wallet.

Exposure? I really don't understand the joke.
How does a person that wants to know how this is done end up hitting the 'exposure'? Maybe when people perform say "oh by the way this trick is called the 'ambitious card' so you can easily find it on youtube"?
