I was at Saturn magic the other day and I'm pretty sure they had it in stock.

I know that Mark purchased this at Blackpool last year. AFAIK this was a WMS exclusive which has now sold out. Thanks though Chris.

Chipswitch looks amazing , even moves are very bold but they are covered very well .
Any US dealer sells it?

One issue with this that you may want to consider is that while the effect and gimmick are really good, you are going to need a way to routine this into your set unless you do it as a stand alone item. That becomes harder when you realize that you likely won't be able to find poker chips that match the gimmick you receive. A small point but one to consider none the less.

Kaliix,
I don't own this, but I suspect that the chips at the end are not gimmicked. I could see doing more than one effect with the items. For example, I do an un-gimmicked three coins across. You could also put a sticker on the bottom of one of the chips and use it in a card trick for a revelation. Show "both" sides of the chip, place it in their hands and do a card trick with the chip as collateral if you get it wrong. Put the chip at their fingertips and close their hand so the chip turns over.

lots of ideas come to mind.

I'm not sure if it comes with the ungaffed chips, too, but the image in the video looks a lot like these:

Yeah, sorry, I own it and it does come with four ungimmicked chips. I'm not sure what I was thinking. I should know better than to post quick... Smile Smile Smile

You're welcome. If I'm wrong I try to admit it and not make the same mistake twice.

I think what I was trying to say is that if you have other chips that you use that are gaffed or you use the newest Sucker Punch gimmicks, you will have to justify why you are bringing out different chips. On the video, Wayne says it is better to do an effect with the chips prior to performing Chipswitch. Clearly it didn't come out that way though.

I purchased this about a year ago. The routine is great. I first saw it on a Michael Vincent video using a coin gaff and thought it was wonderful.

But I was unhappy with the gaff. As tonsofquestions points out, the image in the add shows beautiful, deep blue chips.

The gaff I received is made of light blue/gray chips. They look cheap rather than vibrant like the image

There were scratches on the gaff presumably where it was held during the production.

As Kaliix states, it will be difficult to match the chips.

Just my experience.
