For mail order I recommend Abyss. They have a very wide selection of
everything you need: herbs, books, candles, incense, tools, you name
it. They also take credit cards, which makes it a lot cheaper for
non-US residents like me. They charge actual cost for shipping and
still the sum total cost is lower than every store I've visited in
Scandianvia.

Make sure you tell them that you want to be on their snail mailing
list if you order from outside the US. I've had problems getting them
to send me their catalogue on a regular basis, even though I order at
least once a year. 

Their e-mail address is: abyssdist@aol.com. 


Abyss
48-NWL Chester Rd.
Chester, MA 01011
(413) 623-2155

COST: Free

Books, tapes, statues, jewelry, tarot decks, candles, ritual tools,
incense, oils, herbs, bumper stickers, pins, cauldrons, etc... (These
folks have everything!)

Cash, check, M.O., Visa, MC.

Here's a source in Europe that has everything and then some. Need some
Egyptian Embalming Fluid? A Psi-enhancer or an antique I-Ching coin?
The widest selection of scents and incenses for magical use that I
have ever come across. More expensive than Abyss, even including
postage. :(


Sorcerer's Apprentice
6-8 Burley Lodge Road
Leeds, LS6 1QP
Great Britain

COST: 3.75 GBP

Mail order only. Posts overseas. Ask for the "Teaching Catalogue". SA
probably has more different incenses and oils than any other occult
supplier (including Abyss). If you require something they don't
already have, they make it to your specifications. They give discounts
for large orders of the same item on request. The teaching catalogue
contains some spells and tips for the beginning occultist. Prices are
a bit on the steep side.

For an overview of which tarot packs exist, get the US Games Catalogue:


US Games Systems Inc.
179 Ludlow Street
Stamford, CT 06902 USA
Phone: 1-800-544-2637
Fax: 1-203-353-8431

COST: Free

48 pages, mostly with full colour illustrations. Ship overseas, US
Games Systems probably have the world's largest assortment of tarot
and tarot-like decks. The illustrations are mainly of the cover of the
box for the tarot, so don't say much more than what you see in an
occult shop (if you're lucky enough to have access to
one). Unfortunately the captions don't say much more than the hype on
the box either, so it's not a catalogue that tells you enough to know
which deck to chose, just which decks exist, and some about their
outer appearance. Slightly cheaper than Abyss in most cases.
