There's nothing related with Sight Unseen type of thing apart of the leather.

Considering no one has been open and honest with any kind of review, penguin seem to shift it between available and not, and then keep dropping a hint to become a VIP member - I don't see why anyone should give it the time of day until the sellers change the way they want to advertise it...

To be fair, you can't really become a "vip member" unless you are one of their top customers. It's not like they're asking people to purchase a monthly subscription in order to see the product. |

Even so, if you are VIP then good luck, just don't advertise the fact you cant access something if you are not one, if you only get to be one by buying a load of stuff! It won't make me buy more stuff to obtain some level that they don't tell you about 😊
Let the vip enjoy it in private I say...otherwise its just another piece of indirect advertising... You can have this, but only if you are that, and fulfill certain secret criteria we don't tell you about! But we will allude to it...

Here's a little more information on the dimensions of the wallet according to Nick:
"The BMW is pretty similar to regular mens wallet. 4.5 inches tall, 3.5 inches wide. It has two compartments for cash, 3 credit card slots. It also has a zippered compartment for card to wallet, and built in flaps for an envelope load. Currently, I have 7 credit cards, 6 business cards. 2 packet tricks (poker size cards), and $3 bucks cash in my wallet. It measures out to .30 inches deep. Hope that helps!" |

Appears to be available to the "general population" now, so we can stop the Penguin bashing and wait for some real reviews.

I shop at penguin and am a "vip" member I guess. I don't come across the term "vip" in any emails that I can recall. It is definitely possible though. I imagine that this list extends pretty far and is easy to get on. I am actually surprised because I thought it was just one of those lists everyone gets on for ordering once and they just call us the "top customers" in every email to make us feel good. I have never asked questions about it but I am just a regular customer that purchases an average amount of magic. The advertising page for this effect has remained the same throughout and we did not receive anything really special. Just the chance to preorder. Which I won't be getting this anyway. Unless someone changes my mind at the Penguin Live Magic Expo.
Anyone attending the one in Alexandria? Have a great day everyone. Thanks! |

Looks nice wallet, quite a bit expensive to be honest, I am sure about the method,
So if anyone know how the infinity wallet peek or the S.A.W internal peek works, you should figure out the method as its essentially the same movement, About the fold, just 1 fold is allowed. i do like the size of the wallet, very nice and compact, that's something others are not. the extra fold... it does add some extra barrier so they can't even imagine its possible to check so quick the info while you take another billet to write, I bet the reactions are quite good, and for half price I would think about getting one, as peek wallets always alows you to do some impromptu trick with any billet, and any pen, meanwhile I like to stick with my impression device wallet, nothing more strong than let them grap the paper and never touch it back, on the other side, mine needs reset, needs my special pen, and so on, something that any peek wallet like this TBW do not.

Oh wow, I guess all those wallets that accommodate only NON-FOLDING cards never convinced anyone we could read minds! Geesh, if only we realized...

Folding the card makes a difference. It may seem like a small improvement to some but when you see the method in person you understand why we are all so excited about it.

Will this be exclusive to Penguin or will UK magic shops get it too?

Because if it makes a difference and is "more fooling" then that must mean that NOT folding the card - which we've all been doing for ages - did not fool anyone. No, you don't need to fold the card. Actually, you don't even need a wallet. Learn Bobby Motta's excellent peek from his At The Table lecture and say goodbye to wallets forever... |

Something that adds to the impossibility (folding a card before it appears in your wallet) should be quite always considered an improvement. Just sayin'
