Postby cordenadam » Jun 10th, '06, 19:56



I live in london- Wimbledon area, and am wondering if anybody knows of any magic shops which are near (in london that is) would like to talk to somebody in person to get a quick response.

Thanks in advance

Davenports in the Strand is the perfect place (i love it) they will demonstrate and help out as much as they can!

Find a post made by Bananfish and you'll see that his signature included a list of UK magic shops, as well as regional magic clubs.

He's a kind bloke for making this info available to one and all :!:

I hate where I live there is no magic shop in Regina t all. I dont know why. Regina is a farelly big city. We used to have one way back in the day when i was like 3 years old and didnt know nothing about magic. Well I guess I knew how to do the pass when I was 3 years old but im not bragging haha jk. Anyway I want my magic shop back :(

I went to davenports and was really freaked out, it was so dark in there! I was a bit disappointed by the size of the shop as it was tiny, there was some guy i nfront of me trying to buy like everything a beginner Magician needs and took ages, all i wanted was a pack of ghosts! There was one guy who looked like 19 and there was another kid who was like 11. [ :? ]
They seemed to be up to date with all the dvds and stuff and is a very good shop, i don't see why they own like three shops though but only use the windows in two of them.
