I ordered from them once. I didn't get the discounts (which was the only reason that I ordered in the first place) that I was promised. It's been over a month now and I still haven't received all my items. To top it all off, the (small) items that I did receive were shipped separately, just to boost up my shipping charges. The actual website itself isn't that hot either.

Hello folks! Aaron Smith here from The Magic Depot at magic.org. I will always do my best to provide you the absolute best customer service possible. Free shipping worldwide on all orders over $40, and we never charge extra for split shipments. If there is ever anything I can help you with, please don't hesitate to ask!

After doing business with the Depot for quite a while, I have discovered that they have fair prices, excellent service (same day shipping), and on many orders the shipping was free. In addition, they are the only magic shop I know of that has a 30-day return policy - no questions asked! The staff is knowledgeable - especially Aaron Smith. I think the last reviewer had a bad experience as a fluke!

Pros: good web site. Cons: their advertising is misleading. They try to give you the impression you can "shop with confidence. More than 95 % of the products on this web are returnable at little or no risk to the customer". You will be surprised how long you will have to fight for a refund even for defective and incorrect items and they will try to charge you a restocking fee even for those. My monthly budget for new magic items has been 800 $ for several years now and my experience is: avoid the big advertisers and try to buy from the mostly small outfits that created the prop. They need the business and they know any negative feed back on forums will hurt. The big outfits know that negative posts about them will be removed by the moderators, the only exception being My Lovely Assistant. Kaarlo von Freymann, Helsinki Finland

I really enjoy making purchases from the crew at The Magic Depot. I would rather call on their TOLL FREE line and chat about magic I intend to buy with the sales manager Aaron T. or Marly the shop guy. These guys are very friendly and proficiant in their work. If something I want is not on the web site, they will offer to hunt it down and either tell me where to find it or they will find it for me. I will gladly take most all my business to them. The rest of my magic business usually goes to Mark Stevens at Magic Emporium.

They were the worst company I have ever had to deal with. Aaron himself even resulted to name calling. Their prices are good, if you ever get your products. As for customer service, he is a jerk.

Item ordered 8th August. Now 29th August. No emails, no nothing. Seems item is on back order. Makes you wonder why they advertize what you know you do not have. I will write up out come, good or bad. Mark
