1.0 out of 5 stars Not a wallet for everyday use, March 19, 2008
This review is from: View Slimmy® Thin Front Pocket ID Wallet
Well gee, I guess I'm not a Genius, Artist, or an Innovator (or a "G.A.I." as stated in the oh-so-"clever" and not at all condescending product description) as the ViewSlimmy wallet was completely useless to me for day to day activities. I take it that G.A.I.s don't have a need for such bourgeois items as an auto-club card, driver's license, health insurance card, security card/badge, library card (I guess G.A.I.s don't read), etc.

Long story short: I wanted a wallet with an external ID window so I could easily display and access my security ID without removing it from my wallet. I don't like wearing my ID around my neck or dangling from my wrist; but I need it on me at all times in my high security work environment. I bought this wallet with high expectations, but immediately had to return it as it would not hold even half of the items I need on a day to day basis. Also, and perhaps more importantly, while the materials were good I found the stitching/construction to be sub-standard at best.

So, all you G.A.I.s that fall for condescending sales pitches and don't need to carry much in your wallets (assuming you can scrape together the cash as this wallet is WAY overpriced), you will be very happy with this product. You can show it off to your other G.A.I. friends and have a good laugh at the non-G.A.I. people like me that just couldn't handle the challenge of switching to the ViewSlimmy wallet.

D. Koston says:
You are giving a poor review to 'one of the world's smallest wallets' because it isn't big enough. That's not really a fair review is it? Especially considering how the product description mentions that if you need to carry around a lot of items, don't buy their wallet. Please provide details about the quality and usability of the wallet that are not biased by using this product for something it is not intended for. If you're high tech, you should be able to grasp that a square peg doesn't fit into a round hole and simply return the wallet rather than complaining.
