I would easily have given this product a 5 star rating was it not for the leather cylinder which I had to purchase separately. The stack is made really well together with all the other gimmicks and you receive everything you need for this classic routine. It's really well made. It is pretty expensive though. Pity the cylinder is unusable and the buying the seperate cylinder will set you back about $47. All in all I can recommend this.
Making good on a pledge to FINALLY learn the Ramsay routine, I purchased this set. It's got all you need — well, almost. After working with the set for a while using both the included cylinder and one I had my "stuff I'll use someday" drawer, I'm afraid I've come to agree with Evan, who reviewed the Eisenhower Dollar version of the trick — Tango's cylinder is just not usable. At Evan's suggestion, I bought the $45 cylinder that Vanishing Inc, sells. It's far better than Tango's and even better than the fancy one from my drawer. Most discouraging for me is Tango's participation in the scourge that is "streaming-only" instructional videos. If not yet the norm, the sale of access to (but not ownership of) instructional videos of purchased tricks is disconcerting when it occurs. For all I know, that video could disappear without notice, leaving me or any future owners of my set stranded. Yes, the routine in many permutations is documented elsewhere, beginning with the Andrew Galloway description in "The Ramsay Classics," but THAT routine does not take advantage of two of the proprietary features of the Tango set. To own the Tango set and NOT "own" the instructions is absurd. In the best of all possible worlds, video instructions should be succinct, well thought out, scripted, and supplement, not replace, the written word. Failing that, at LEAST let the buyer own his purchase, props, instructions, and all. I would hope that in the future Vanishing Inc. would take note of online-only instructions in their product descriptions. For me, this alone would often be a deal breaker, particularly for lengthy routines such as this one. (I much appreciate that VI DID alter the product description to alert the buyer to the "stream-only" status of the online instruction. They listen!)
