Hey Guys,
I don't know if this particular link has been published before (the search feature isn't popping up). I've been using these for a quite a few years now and will testify to how AMAZING these look. If you've ever seen a "Mill Bill" before you know that they are, without fail, pretty crappy looking. These bills have a fantastic texture and the details are amazing. Lady Liberty graces one side while the eagle is on the other and if there was a million dollar bill, this is exactly what it would look like. They are well worth the price. Worst case scenario is that you'll make 50 cents every time you give one away http://themillion.com/

Hi MagicChris,
How's the quality of those customized bills? The pics on the site don't look too clear, but it's a great idea. Thanks for the info! D.Duane |

Joseph,
I agree, I've been using those Million Dollar bills for my bill switch for about a year now. The quality is great and people love 'em! Clay |

US paper denominations are the same sizes. Didn't people use to bleach $1 bills then reprint $100 bills onto the bleached stock?

I'm guessing the difference between these two bills is the "Million" is printed on both sides and the less expensive bill is blank on the back.
There are some gambling style routines that use a stack of bills folded lengthwise. I'm thinking the less expensive custom bills would work great for this, plus leaving you space on the back for more contact information on booking your show. I'm even thinking of having some of both, with the better looking bill wrapped on the outside. Of course, if someone actually wins (hey, it can happen... when I choose ) the bill they get will be the promo bill, not the good one. edit: On looking deeper, they show one picture of the back of a bill. So it seems there is printing there after all. So much for that idea. I still like it for giveaways, saving the better bill for looks.

Dave,
There are still four lines available for name and contact information on the FRONT of the less expensive bill. |

The exceptional quality of the bills from Themillion.com is truly what makes them noteworthy. I have no qualms spending $50 now and again to grab a stack of these. There are times when you get, "hey, Can you turn my dollar to a million dollar !?!"
I no longer hesitate. However, I do quite often state that it won't work with a single and that I'll need a ten dollar bill The quality is so good that they have no problem letting me keep the ten as a tip because they've got a quality souveneir and a cool story to tell their friends. They will actually look for the anti-counterfeiting strip and smell the bill.

Sorry Eirik. I was checking myself and they told me that they didn't as of yet.
However, if I do find it I'll be sure to let you know.

In Virginia, some ABC stores (state run liquor stores) were giving out their version of the Million Dollar bill out as give-aways. It was a good looking bill, but when I went back, there were none left.

I ordered 50
Posted: Mar 14, 2006 2:40pm -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I got 50. That's how long it took to get my 50 million dollar bills, if you care. The quality is pretty good. not amazing but good enough. Now I won't lose my $100 any more when I want to be prepared for the bill switch. By the way, I studdied Ammar's technique in 'the magic of Michael Ammar' and found it to be quite good. the subtle folding, etc. help a lot.
