You know, I like this one. The gimmick is sturdy and the idea is sound. I did however find the identical gimmicks online for $12 a piece. A couple of things to mention. 1)The instructions on this are awful but it is an easy effect. It really is one of those effects that is 95% presentation and 5% skill. 2) You will need to buy some type of adhesive to utilize gimmick. I found 3M double side tape has worked pretty good. It doesn't come with any or even addresses it in the instructions. 3) It doesn't work for all containers. The diameter of the container will have to be the right size for the gimmick to fit against the wall. Any large bucket will be fine. I wanted to use something smaller and I had to make some small modifications for it to work. 4) The coins you get with the gimmicks are not replicas of any kind of actual coin (that I have ever seen). They will be great for making the sound but they wouldn't pass scrutiny. I suggest ordering a set of the Premium Magic Palming Coins at the same time you order this. Really you should get two sets. So you have enough for both gimmicks. Also they are a little lighter so they don't pull the gimmick away from the bucket as much as the supplied coins. Anyhow, overall it wasn't a disappointing purchase.
The gimmick works fine and is made out of good material but is too expensive for my taste. However, you do get the gimmick full of thin coins that fit the gimmick which is nice. I've never done Miser's dream and thought this would help me start. It did help me a lot but did not make the difference.
