Anyone who's been to NYC...

Can anyone tell me any good magic shops in NYC? This is my first time going, (sometime next month! ) and sadly where I live (Illinois) their are no magic shops in the entire state! So if anyone could tell me any good ones it would help a lot, thanks in advance!

Fantasma is cool.

 

[Robert " The Mystifyer"]

Tannens Magic Shop is great

Never been, but I hear remarkable comments about Tannen's.

Tannens was great when I visited in January, I believe the guy behind the counter was named Steve, same as mine

Very friendly and helpful!

Like everyone else is saying, Tannens is great. A little expensive, but that's retail for you.

Mike is usually the one behind the counter. He's a pretty cool dude. Also, if you know who Spencer Peterson is, he works there on weekends I think.

TANNENS!!!!!!!!


I went there when i was 13 and thats when i got into magic. My friends have also been multiple times and everytime they come back with some great stuff. Awesome shop.

Could of been Mike... For some reason I thought it was a Steve, maybe that was someone else, somewhere else... Who knows! It was my first time there and maybe my last, unless I go all the way to NY again in the near future!

Yeah Tannen's all the way, I went there a couple weeks ago, and everyone was very friendly. They recommended some stuff, and even performed a few tricks for me. All around great shop.
