I hope this doesn't count as a double post.

I don't know how many of you have an effect with a signed object reappearing somewhere unexpected in your routines, but i was hoping that i put one in my coin act.

By far i have a few recommendations and did my reading up. Hope you guys can let me know your personal experience with these and let me know which you'd perfer.

By far i have seen

The Impossible Location



I explained the effect in my pervious topic. Im still searching for a better price for it. Feel free to pm me if you know of any good place that sells this.

There are quite a few versions for this, and correct me if im wrong that the prop is absolutely examinable after the effect.

Russian Wallet

There were 2 threads on this and i read up on both. But i still don't know if the prop is ABSOLUTELY examinable after the effect. Personally i liked this the best cause it looks much more presentable than the impossible location and more "imprompto" than the signed tube.

I have never seen this before in magic shops and i don't know how much it cost. What i read is "the gim**** is undectable while shut". So im assuming that its not 100% examinable either.

Anyone with these props or even their own signed coin props, do give a brief review and let me know which you prefer.

The impossbile location
Cost about $5 from those shops that sells china stuff, don't ask me where, I forgot where I saw it. The set up is very cumbersome and loading is not that smooth. But the effect is good. If you do table hopping, this item is not ideal, plus it looks cheap.

Signed bill tube
You need to roll the bill and loading is not smooth as well.

Lippencott box/ Lippencott box plus
Nice (if you buy a good quality one). I always like this type of box. You can examine it, not foolproof though. Loading is easy and fast with easy set up. You can use coin, bills or rings, or any small objects that can fit inside. I have a Viking Quarter Go Box, its very well made.

Russian Wallet
This is my favourite among your list. Its looks impossible and set up is simple and easy. Everything is self contained. You do not need additional gimmick to load your item. Price is on the high side but definitely worth the money.

Thanks so much for the advice!

I got myself the impossible location. Thought the effect was brilliant even after someone revealed it to me. Getting good reactions from this one. Definately worth the money. (not for $30)

Russian Wallet is the next thing in my list. But im still trying to figure if it is 100% examinable after the effect just like "The impossible location". Its selling at $80 and if its really as good as it looks, i guess its worth that bit of money.

Just get it, there are no gimmicks in the wallet. It is totally examinable.

I love the russian wallet effect too! It is very very clean, and just blows people away. If you're hesitating because of the price, I'd say it is well worth its price. In fact, I think i had bought a lot more of stuff that were more expensive, and much less worth the price i paid for.
