I am the same.. I now wait at least 1 or 2 months to find out if an item is a stinker or is gold.. Been burned too many times buying when an item first comes out

Sticking with my old old bill changing gimmicks ... To me it makes not much diff , on one hand I've a gimmick to carry around in my pocket , with bills . On the other hand , I'll have normal bills set up creased in my pocket just for 400 LUX , which cannot be spent . My currency are all plastic bills and so pathetically I'll need to spend another few hours just making them creased and folded nicely . I'll only be checking this out if it's decent .

I have a question. I constantly hear people say that they would never hand out the changed bills (hundreds, 20's, or whatever the ones or paper changes into). I would assume that no one is going to perform any kind of effect with money in your local alley way in the dead of night where drug dealers are hanging out. I would assume that no one would perform ANY type of effect in that situation. In the hundreds and hundreds (probably thousand's) of demo's I have watched, the people being performed for on the streets look like normal people. they do not seem like the kind of people that are going to examine bills a magician hands them and run off with it. Has anyone ever had an experience in which someone had run off with or stolen money that was handed to them to examine? Im not saying that it could NEVER happen, I could see it possibly happening in a bar, if someone is drunk or something. When an incredible transformation of 5 bills or paper to 5 different bills happens, people are going to assume that there has to be something "gimmicky" with the bills- and to examine each bill and see that there is nothing- is very important. Im not trying to say that the people who won't hand out bills are wrong in doing so, but I think you would be able to tell quickly if it is ok-or not- to hand out bills to somebody for examination. I have E.B 1 and 2, Hu 500, HO 500, Prophet, etc. and I have actually had spectators hand ME THEIR bills to "change". Has anyone ever been ripped-off like this before?

I mean even with EB I, during the effect, hand a few bills out so they can see that they are real, or I say, "here smell this money all money always smells dirty, that's why they launder it." so by putting it in front of their nose they think they handled it.
So this may be fun to practice. Have to give the creator credit. He did change things around a bit. |

I always hand out all my bills for examination after the end of possible , using the method thought on EB to take gimmick away by taking wallet back . Its just so awesome

Does it turn the magic into a puzzle, or does it complete the magical effect by cancelling out any remaining explanation brewing in the spectator's mind?

How does handling out bills at the end turns it into a puzzle ?

I cannot imagine giving up my Extreme Burn 2.0 Locked & Loaded gimmick simply because I could do the same thing with sleight of hand.
I just don't see how that is a good reason and enough to give up one of my best routines. I could do a coins across with 5 coins & no gimmick...but I don't because of 4 Coins & A Filipino. Same reason here...so I'll pass, but good luck. Peace, Charlie |

The price is cheaper than EB or other gimmicked version , might be a good start for those who haven't purchased anything to change a stack of bills yet .

Love this way of letting people examine bills without asking them to examine. Thanks for the tip/gem John. |

I wonder if this might offer a good method for switching out four borrowed bills for four others of the same denomination in plain view.

How did this and 'Money Money' by Juan Pablo come about at the same time? Interesting story behind that, or just coincidence?
