These shops can make for a fine go to source for essential services and products, all the while perhaps making new and fruitful acquaintances . To most people, these might just be odd shops where wizards and gurus get their potions, together with a few adventurous passersby. They too are welcome to sample the unique ambiance of a new age store.
Any store of this sort will sell various types of incense, but a smart shopper will object that they can find incense at their local head shop for lower prices. The difference is that the incenses sold at a magical supply shop will usually have been manipulated magically by experts at their craft. An incense or oil so manipulated will often then be purposed toward some magical end, such as gaining wealth.
Beyond incense, there are those innumerable products one won't ever find in any other type of store but one dedicated to magic. First there are the tarot decks, laid out on display to advertise the beautiful artistry of their illustrations. Like the incense, the beautiful designs are meant to be effective, in this case by calling out to anyone looking for a personal connection to a particular deck. Often the bookshelves will be somewhat spare but excellent, full of books meant to be informative in the most directly practical way.
A wide range of items will be available, ranging from a crystal ball in any color to an athame of any size. Often there will be quite an impressive statuary of deities, whether Gods or Buddhas, which very well might have have been vested with energy by someone familiar with them. There is a good chance one will find oils, ointments, even loose herbs, each tasked to some particular end.
Often these modest shops are the real cultural and social hub available for people with a taste for the esoteric, and they are happy to spend their money there despite the somewhat steeper price tag. There is no denying it that these days online shopping is most economical option even with the shipping fees. There might always be that occasion when some item just has to be bought online.
A New Age shop will also feature services such as tarot card readings and other mediumistic practices for customers seeking insight into some problem.

Services can include astrological services and even energy work, and may be provided either by the proprietor or by a contractor without any permanent relationship to the shop.
There are plenty of occult shops that are not ultimately owned by people who are practitioners themselves. Shops that are sometimes offer after hours classes in various magic practices, either after hours or on a day the business closes altogether. A shop might be home to a coven, purchasing their wands and gowns there to supplement the group beyond their periodic dues.
