This is very good BUT it’s not the same as Mr Berglas’s .
Saw David do this maybe as many as 8 -10 times the first time at his house . David’s uses 1 regular deck off cards with no gimmicks. This is very good though as EFFECT is everything but it’s not as good as the International Man Of Mysteries |

Yes this is obviously not the method used by Berglas. Nor is it meant to be.

Mike I'm intrigued by your post about seeing Berglas perform the trick 8-10 times. Were they exactly the same routine each time? I've personally seen him perform it live at various magic shows and although the trick began the same way, each time it took a different path during the performance depending on how the audience responded and revealed a slightly different outcome (although each one technically a "berglas" type effect).
However, back to the topic in hand... this Miracle One looks impressive but will await some reviews first. |

Miracle one looks fantastic & it’s creator is fantastic
I really like it & may get it as I love ACAAN & also CAAN effects & the legend started me on this fascinating plot . When I saw the master do this there was only one time that David picked up the deck . I have both of his big books which I am sure you do also , so NO there can be a variation In procedure ( which you are aware of ) but Nr Berglas’s method is MY personal favourite. |

A $75 gimmicked deck is generally the province of the specialty Card Shark decks (Out of Sight, Get Sharky, Destiny Deck). And I suppose the recent Trojan Deck. It will be interesting to see just what this deck turns out to be. To me the selection of the card could maybe be stronger, but the fact that the spectator can (usually?) remove the cards from the case, can deal themselves, and all of the other cards can be ribbon spread face up are pretty strong.
However if you are willing to put in the work, Asi Wind's version allows for any named card and only sacrifices the ability for the spectator to remove the cards from the case, which can't always be done here anyway. And for $50 less. And with only one inspectable deck. But if you want to spend the $$ for a (nearly) self-working version, I would be very interested to hear the feedback. |

You can't argue with Asi's version IF (wish I could underline and use an even bigger font) you can do it AND under pressure AND consistently, I admit I kind of gave up.
Here is a funny thing, I bought this at Magic Live along with Switch One base on Christian's incredibly helpful and charming demeanor. He spent quite a while with me working on Switch one before I'd even bought it. I have yet to play with this (and now the instructions at Vanishing are offline while they prep the official release) cause I really don't do social magic any more and this is too long an effect to do in my usual strolling professional work. |

Anyone who has bought this and taken a look the instructions have any reviews?

Ah so they must have bought it twice then (you need to buy it online to leave a review). Must be pretty good.

MIne has arrived but the link inside is not live yet.
Have messaged Vanishing Inc to see if they can add to my account. |

Don't see what the big issue is as the trick has been available for some time at conventions.

That’s strange. Also isn’t this meant to be a pre order shipping on the 12th?
