How to Find a Magic Shop

Getting a recommendation from an experienced magician is often the best way to find a good magic shop. There are also many online magic suppliers that have a variety of merchandise available to purchase. Comparing several different magic suppliers is the best way to find the items for a good price.

• Make a list of the supplies you want to buy at a magic shop. Once you know what you need, decide how much money you have to spend on the items. Plan to check several shops, so you can find the best prices.


• Ask other magicians where to find the best magic shop for the type of supplies you need to buy. Ask them for recommendations if you do not know which supplies to buy for the tricks you want to perform. If you are unable to get a good local referral, look in the phone book to find magic shops in your area.


• Write down the addresses of the magic shops you want to visit. Decide which shop to go to first. Take your supply list with you so you do not forget to buy anything.


• Go to the first shop on your list and check the inventory to see if what you need to buy is in stock. Ask a store clerk if you can order an item that is not currently available. Make a note of the prices and go to the other shops on your list to see if you can get a better deal.


• Check online for magic shops if you are unable to get what you need locally. Use a search engine to pull up a list of websites that sell magic supplies. If you find the things you need to buy, make sure to keep a copy of your receipt until you receive your order in the mail.
