I was just wondering if there were any stores that i could buy lockpicking supplies at. I don't want to pay the shipping and handling costs and all that other junk that come salong with paying for items online. Any suggestions?

well first of where abouts in the world are you? Kinda hard to point out a shop down the road from you if we don't know where you are.

second. there are some "spy" shops around but they will charge you more than it costs to pay PnP, its really not worth it.

Third Welcome to the mad house.

Besides that you haven't told us where in the world you are looking to shop...

The only stores I know that I know of that will sell to non-locksmiths are spy shops. They are extraordinarily overpriced. You would do better online.

In some citys there are spy shops... they sell picks from time to time.. I bought my first pick set at a gun show in portland oregon. Many years ago.
as far as a "store", I dont think so.

Okay, thanks for the help. After hearing your responses it sounds like i will have to buy off the net.

You can make your own if you like,

Ive read recently that some army surplus or amy supplies stores carry them, check your local joke and gun shops if tyhey dont have them in they will likely get them in for you,

You will pay sometimes up to 100% more from these places so all the messing around and crap may just be worth it,

Check out our sites sponcer and entering lp101 into the discount box will get you a further 10% off the price,

If there are any physical shops out there that sells lockpicks, their selection would be pretty limited because if they stocked a large variety of pick tools, they would probably attract the attention of local law enforcement. And I'm sure they would not sell to any minors either.
