Default Serial Biller by Rich Ferguson

Is anyone out there familiar with Serial Biller by Rich Ferguson from ***********.com?

Is it a very practical effect? The promo videos look pretty good.

I am. It's fairly simple but not obvious and requires a gaff, a TT, and a switch.

I gathered from the video that it would involve a bill switch and a TT. I just don't know if $30 is worth it to me, although the DVD claims to have a lot of extra material on it.

If you gather it requires a switch and a TT, I guess you'll need to determine how "practical" the effect is for you personally. Don't know what all is on the DVD, never saw it. Only know about the M.O. from a friend. Although it's been my experience that whenever "bonus material" is offered it's usually to make up for a lack of value in the first place. Just my 2 cents and worth every nickel!

I do an effect using a signed bill and a devil's envelope with a window. The spectator signs their bill and I put it in the envelope and they see it through the window in the envelope. I proceed to burn the envelope and they can watch their money burn only to have the restored bill appear somewhere else. The thing that attracted me to 'Serial Biller' was that the spectator could tear the bill.

Could the trick have something to do with committing a Federal offense and '3's' and '8's'? You don't have to give the effect away, a simple 'yes' or 'no' answer will do. Thanks.
