I don't know the Quantum Bender, but if it works for you and you are happy with it, fine.

Only 35 in the first run - more will be made if Joe and Paul have the interest (and I suspect they will, the wallet is incredible). From what I hear the first 35 will hardly cover the development costs.

I saw this fool plenty of well known magicians at the WMS. Paul used a clever subtlety in his routine and I was pleased to see it included in the instructions.

Slap Aces

All I can say is when I borrowed a coin from my wife and she bent her coin, she freaked! This wallet is worth every penny! No pun intended! I'm rather have the coin bend in the specs hand so I bring out the money and bet $10.00 that they can bend the coin. When they do, it is JUST amazing!

Sly - the smiling illusion from the notes works great for me - I'm having pictures of my hand printed up for the pseudo voodoo effect where they sign the real coin and the coin in the picture. All three presentations give a reason for the wallet (and there are plenty of alternatives) but the fact that the bending action happens right under thier nose during a natural action just tickles me.

I considered carrying a picture of Uri Geller and take that from the wallet!

I never thought that I'd be doing any metal bending, but I went ahead and placed an order. I was happy with the prototype that I saw last Fall, so I'm sure that the finished version will be great. I haven't been unhappy with anything from Porper or Wilson. Hopefully I'll have the wallet by the end of this coming week.

Actually it only costs $700 to bend the first coin. After that they're free Smile

I saw one that was somewhere around the second or third prototype and actually had a small part in perfecting the final design. As far as I'm concerned, the mechanism is brilliant and I'm betting that Paul has developed a handling that will fool the pants off the spectators. Depending on the spectators, that could be a very good thing...

I don't find his statement strange at all. I know for a fact that the Predator Wallet has directly affected the booking of six of my shows. Not bad, aside from the fact that I believe the entertainer should be what books a show and not the trick.

I think I should go ahead and place an order. Anything from Porper has to be topnotch! Hopefully I'll have the wallet soon.

Michael... the Entertainer includes the guy SELECTING the tricks. Bad choices, bad act.

...I agree with Michael....a great effect can't save a poor performer, but a competent performer can save almost any trick....

Well, I just got off the phone with HP. It looks like there's a delay in the shipping of the wallets. It appears that they'll be arriving at HP some time next week at the earliest.

It is made for a USA Quarter 25-cent piece. There might be a euro the same size?
