I'm on a course in London, and am trying to find a shop that has an extensive range of decks.

Can anyone suggest a good shop? I'm particularly keen to buy the Hermetic deck.

Cheers,

Chris.

Borders I have found to have an extensive range of decks. Whsmiths is quite sparse but still worth a quick look. Heffers also. Good Luck and enjoy the course.

Watkins, on Cecil Court. EXCELLENT. I have also been told of a store called Treadwells, which is allegedly very good, but I have never been.

Waterstones in Kensington was always good.

I would second Watkins in Cecil Court (near Leicester Square Tube Station) or Mysteries in Monmouth Street, Covent Garden.

And I third Watkins! I have ordered many books and decks from them and they have a staggering inventory of both - also, the people working there know their subject matters and are very helpful.

The Astrology Shop on Neal Street also has quite a good selection.

both of those are excellent and they have all the packs out to feel, Mysteries is okay for cards but the other two have a much better selection.

Am curious, what course are you on, i am doing one with LCS but had a bugger of a time finding a suitable and not too expensive course
