From the performance looks peter doesn’t use any equivoche .....
I already got on the mark (which I m not really a fan of) so I really would love to know the differences between the 2 of them.

I am presuming if they go down the right road no equivoque will be necessary . This obviously won’t always happen though , best wishes Tarik 🙂

I have On the Mark, which I think is excellent and Kolossal Killer which is my everyday Wallet. Not sure about ID and what the difference is. Would I just be buying something very similar to what I already have.

Have to agree

Regardless of method it's exactly the same effect ( to the spectators point of view)

On the mark is straight forward works every time , and the strange thing on the mark is also an alakazam product so don't see the value in putting out the same effect again

Hi Jerry do you actually have bang on and if so do you use it. The reactions from it are people go mental . . . I've never had anyone say about the wallet not being out in the open before the card was named . . . Stop thinking like a magician 😀


Hi Rowland -- I had Bang On and sold it. For me, it's obvious that placing your prediction out in plain view from the start is stronger, compared with taking it out after the card (or whatever) is named.

Otherwise, stage performers wouldn't have a prediction box hanging above the stage all during the show - they'd just have their assistant wheel it out after the audience makes its random selections.

Another thing: Bang On requires too much pocket space. On The Mark = one pocket.

All this said, of course, whatever prop works for us is the right one to use. For my taste, it's On the Mark -- or for a true full-deck choice, a Q Index.

Cheers,
Jerry

I cant quite understand why Alakazam as does this when On the Mark deos an excellent job. Would like to know the difference.

This looks nice but I think being able to name 8 different cards is much stronger which can be accomplished using Tony Millers Shiva wallet. And you can show the one prediction card in your wallet before you begin the routine. Also, the spectator can take out the prediction card himself and handle the card. Another strong convincer.

I don't understand any of these effects when a sealed envelope with a prediction and say, the person's name is so simple to do...
I've asked to be banned

The nice thing about ID, compared to other versions, is that the large red envelope is very visible in the wallet, and you are very open with how you go to the wallet to remove it, which leads spectators to believe that there is only one envelope with one card. With most other versions, the retrieval of the card needs to be done with the wallet angled towards yourself. There are certainly advantages (and disadvantages) with this version, but that is why its great to have a variety of options to choose from to determine which approach is best for you.

May I remind you kindly of my version which is a combination of OTM and BangOn and uses only one very small wallet which comes in play at the very beginning, stays there the entire time (you even open it before you start). If you go downstairs you will find my post including a link for a video performance. It is some time ago. Jan

Just watched the video - yes you need to help them narrow their selection -- still looks great and a good quality product. I have OTM too, but this is a welcome addition to my collection
