Magic supplies in San Francisco, San Francisco County, California
If you are performing in San Francisco, or learning to, this is where the props come from. Decks, gimmicks, coins, cups, silks and the rest.
We post to every address in San Francisco County and the rest of California — there is no shop floor in San Francisco, and no separate pricing by city.
A city the size of San Francisco usually has at least one magic club meeting monthly and a handful of working performers. Both are worth finding before you buy anything expensive: an hour watching someone competent is worth more than a prop.
If you have been learning from videos and want the props to go with them, this is the shortcut. Marked decks, Svengali decks, stripper decks, coin shells and close-up mats all ship to San Francisco, and the listings say which effects each one is actually used for.

Coin magic
Coin work travels better than anything else — an expanded shell and a few half dollars fit in a pocket and play anywhere. Shells, folding coins, coin gimmicks and magnetic props cover vanishes, productions, transpositions and the bend. Harder than cards to learn, and considerably stronger when it lands.
San Francisco
Close-up and street magic
Material built to survive inspection from three feet away: sponge balls, cups and balls, chop cups, ring gimmicks and close-up mats. Street and table work is the most forgiving way to get good, because the audience is small enough to restart and honest enough to tell you when it did not land.

Starting out in San Francisco
If you are starting, the honest advice is to buy three things and work them until they are invisible, rather than twenty and perform none of them. A Svengali deck, a set of sponge balls and a decent close-up mat will carry you further in six months than a drawer of apparatus.

Magic around California
The west coast magic scene leans close-up and comedy, and Los Angeles has the Magic Castle pulling performers through it. Expect strong local competition and a correspondingly good standard of amateur work.
