"A MAGIC SHOP IS A GREAT PLACE TO HANG OUT"

And with those words the philosophy of a magic store was born.

Most businesses find their mission statement to be something written down and then ignored, but not Midwest Magic. Owner Tim Felix has taken his decades of magic and magic shop experience to make that statement very real every single day.

 

"VIRTUAL"

A buzzword that describes what Midwest Magic is NOT.  Midwest Magic is a real place, staffed by real magicians.  But more about that later, first—THE STORE!  The humble magic shop is one of the great magic classics, and Midwest Magic has one of the most complete product lines of any magic store in the country.  When Tim created his store he decided that he wanted to carry, well, EVERYTHING.  He has gotten amazingly close.  Midwest Magic stocks almost fourteen thousand different magical items in the store (and that number grows every day!).  All products (unless noted) in the Midwest Magic website catalog are ACTUALLY IN STOCK AND AVAILABLE FOR IMMEDIATE SHIPMENT--(and if they're not, that means they're on order).  Tim always found it a bit disingenuous (if not blatantly dishonest) for sites to advertise thousands of items THAT THEY DO NOT CARRY!  Go ahead...ask them! 

Midwest Magic is not just another Internet drop-ship company with a non-existent inventory.  JB Magic, Abbott, MAK, Magic TAO, Morrissey, El Duco, Fantasio, Titanas, Fantasma, Haines, Johnson Products, Harries, Nielsen, A-1 Multimedia, Bob Kohler Productions, U.S. Playing Card Co., Daytona, Twin Cities, Porper Originals, Fantasma, Kaufman & Co., Collector's Workshop, Tenyo, Atto, Royal, Kennedy, Magic By Gosh, Paper Crane, Theory 11, Viking-Haenchen, Tannen, Magic Inc., Tricks Co., L & L, Hermetic Press, Magic Words...and many, many more product lines are represented on the shelves at Midwest Magic.  You like playing cards?  Midwest Magic stocks almost 1500 different decks!  And for those who are looking for something hard to get or out of print, Tim has an amazing ability to find these items for you (feel free to give him a call!)

 

THE PEOPLE

The sales staff at Midwest Magic has over 60 years of performance and magic shop experience and can answer questions with a real (not virtual) knowledge of the product.  Each one an expert in his own specialty.  Cards?  Coins?  Manipulation?  Stage?  History?  Midwest Magic either has the answer or can find it.  And, if that weren't enough, Tim has been able to create a consulting staff of professional magicians that would not be affiliated with any other magic shop in the world.
