I stumbled across an e-store called Winkler's Warehouse. I had never heard of him before.. I was doing a search for an
effect call Double Impact. I've searched for it for years and it turns out that he had one in mint condition with. a price tag of 6.00, the same price it cost 30 years ago. He has both new and used effects. http://winklersmagicwarehouse.com/ If this is a cross post or not new, I apologize. Jake Sr.

It's legit. I was originally from Connecticut and this was one of the few magic shops, sadly it is the last one.

I stumbled across his site through Google and lo and behold he had it he carefully packed everything and shipped
the same day. Took a chance and it paid off.

That's a sizeable store considering it's open by appointment only. Glad there are are some brick and mortar shops still around.
Pay no attention to that man behind the curtain.

It was the communication and customer service that won me in. I looked for this effect for decades
now, Google turned up Double Impact and he has a used one, it's in mint condition. 30 years ago it was about 6.00. The USPS did a helluva job getting it to me 2 days from the time I hit Pay Now. Packaging for the effect was way and beyond, but the store made sure it was well packed item. I'm sorry for any misspelling , I can only type with my left hand it's kinda hard to maintain efficient writing. Best, Jake Sr.

He called me today to make sure everything was ok with the effect, not an email, a friggin phone call for a 6.00 effect. What great customer service.
I have various protection service and no Cookies installed. It's a legit place.

I use Avast for virus protection, and Winkler's Warehouse won't open in my browser desktop browser. It opens fine on my iPad, etc... Must be something in Avast that triggers a false positive. I communicated with the man in charge about it a number of months ago, and he was really surprised. Still won't work with Avast. It's a great store!
