I've heard of the shop, and I think some of our Singaporean members frequent it.  Be careful when ordering - the pricing they give will be in Singaporean dollars, AND shipping from Singapore to the US is EXPENSIVE.  Be sure you're getting a real bargain when all that is factored in.  Also, you might have to pay Customs duties on it when it arrives in the US.

While I havent ordered from them, they have ordered from me.  I've never had a problem dealing with them.

Why is there a change for customs? I know a lot of companies mention it often, but I've never been left with a fine or anything.

I physically went to the store when I was there; it's a nice and small little magic shop on the top level of a plaza. The guy there is really nice.
If I were an eskimo, I would build my igloo next to a supermarket.

Its quite a reputable shop in Singapore. There is another stall that has a similar name but has a rather bad rep for selling counterfeit stuff.

That one I believe is the Magic Hall. I also went there. The workers there were more anti social in their approach to customers.

It would depend on what you're getting and how much of it.  Some places are more strict about it than other.  In the US, they don't generally bother for low-value packages, but if you placed a big order, they might flag it for Customs taxes.
