Afternoon fellow wizards!

Postby acenaway » Mar 31st, '08, 13:20



Newbie here from South Wales. Just to say Hi! And also wondering, mainly to fellow Welshy's, where do you get your cards etc? I can't find a magic shop that's worth it's salt for love no money. There's one a mile or so from me, but they also do alot of the joke shop stuff. They don't sell Bicycles or Tally's, and I'm really wanting to get a deck of Black Tigers. Do fellow Taffy's have any recommendations where to go, or am I doomed to ordering off the net?

Cheers :P

All right butt! :D

Welcome to Talk magic, Where abouts you from? I'm from Merthyr! :shock:

I order all my decks off the net, not really sure where you'd buy them locally?

Welcome and enjoy. Have you asked them if they will order the decks for you? You never know.

"Butt" :lol: I feel at home already. Port Talbot here, oh the joy!

Thats a good idea though, maybe ask the guy at the place in town if he could order them?

No worries mun! :D :D :D

I've read somewhere on a TM thread, some one buys 'seconds' off a dealer, and they literally pay pennies for them, not sure what company it is though, think it might be magicbox which is based in Newcastle.
Apparently theyre in good nick aswell, you can't tell the difference, although you don't get an original bike box, so you'll just have to keep one of your old ones.

I'm sure some one on TM will pick this up and comment on it and even help you out! :D

Have to agree there butty boy,

Did a gig Christmas time, and forget my regular decks, so had to nip into a local supermarket to buy some. All they had were Waddingtons, and they were half the price of bikes :D
