Does anyone know where I can buy flash paper in Australia? I want to perform the floating rose into real rose trick. However I don't want to buy this online because the shipping is way too expensive, or maybe I can consider it if its in Australia somewhere.

Any clues?

well im not sure about Sydney, but if you were to come down to Melbourne there is a couple of Magic stores one called Bernards Magic Shop, they do have a website but its still under construction. If i were you just check local Magic stores, why not ebay here is a auction right now which is pretty cheap

Only too true, wanted to buy some Michael Ammar Magician's Wax... $20 for a little tub. I'm going to take over that place one day...LOL

Anyway, I get my flash paper online. You can ask one of your friends to buy it for you or you can go out and purchase a Visa CANVAS Card ($8 from most News Agencies with BPAY). It's basically a Prepaid Card so you can't spend more than What you've got on it, and I think it's very good for young teenagers (Especially boys) who buy stuff from the Internet. you can get more information here.

Sorry for all the blab, but anyway! I purchase my Flash Paper from here, and it's the cheapest flash paper I ever buy. I've used this Flash Paper and it never fails. It's good, so don't be fooled by the cheaper prices they let you buy it at.

One more thing, since it's extremely flammable (well duh.... LOL) the paper is soaked in water before it's shipped. So if you happen to buy it from here, you have to dry each ream of paper before you use it (Preferably with a Hair Dryer).

I hope that helps out with your trek to find these materials!

Found these guys who send flash anywhere in Australia.

www.geelongfireworks.com.au

plus they have a neat range of fire products.
I've ordered a couple of times - no problems.

Can't buy fireworks though :-) LOL.
