ProCaps

It’s ok. When I used it only after 2 times the paint chipped off the gimmick making look suspicious and unable to use. The instructions are great but the gimmick not so much.

This is the ultimate "meh" product. After much hype, this thing falls short for me. 2 stars - 1 for price and 1 for quality. The biggest issues are:1) The stack does not look like the edges of a quarter. The seem thicker, but the bigger problem is that real quarters have a copper edge, NOT a full silver edge like the stack. So a real quarter on top of the stack looks waaaaaay off.2) The quarter jingles inside the cap. It is not snug, so if there is quiet, and move it in certain ways, it makes noise.3) If you offset the top quarter to make the ring at the bottom less noticeable, you run into another problem - the top of the stack is a blank flat silver surface! If the edge of the stack is viewable when you offset the real quarter, any discernible eye will see the "coin" underneath it is blank,4) I've heard Craig Petty claim he has done this trick a whole bunch of times and no one ever suspected anything. I really don't believe him. Either he is lying, only performs this trick to completely clueless people, or does magic tricks in the dark. The ring on the bottom does look off, but between the three issues above, I am not sure how he can say no one notices anything. 5) The best use for this would be if you could cup the coins in your hand, that could prevent the ring from being noticed....but guess what? You can't really perform it in your hand. You need to do it on a flat surface.6) Lloyd Barnes is a known name in the industry which makes the intro to the promo video all the more egregious since I feel like he is using his name to sell something that is "meh". The way he talks, he sounds like he discovered the lost tomb of Alexander the Great - some great treasure he recently unearthed. Everyone has seen a bottle cap before, right? Well guess what? I bet most people have never seen a bottle cap with a giant recycling symbol on top of it. It would have been way better to just make it solid red or blue. Put all these issues together and the product is just straight up sub par, even though it is well made and is not too expensive. Weirdly, even though I've criticized it a lot, it is still a decent buy just because of the price. But I feel obligated to let people know that this is not the perfect okito box you've always been looking for. Buyer beware!!

Update: I tested this on my 2 best magic testers - my kids. As expected, my 5 year old was relatively fooled, but my 8 year old, and I kid you not, instantly asked me/accused me, "are those coins all connected!?" So unless you are doing this on little kids, I don't expect you will get away with fooling many people with the extremely poorly constructed fake stack.

Love this. I used this at a corporate event and it was a hit. The bottle cap is organic. People worry the gimmick looks off a bit and I agree but with the right presentation the audience isn't going to come close to noticing.
