I happened upon this story of Harry Levy, the owner of Hank Lee’s Magic Factory getting sentenced for credit card fraud and I really had to know what Hank Lee’s Magic Factory was. Turns out it’s a fairly well-known magic store in Medford that has been sketchy for year. My curiosity lead me to this story from March when Levy was first charged. What’s awesome about this is there are 30 comments from magicians around the world weighing in with opinions. I don’t know why the idea of a comments section filled with magicians fascinates me, but it does.

I’ve warned countless other magicians not to do business with HANK LEE’S MAGIC FACTORY. This company has stolen money via consistant misleading advertising practices. I learned my lesson and stopped doing business 25+yrs ago and have never regretted having done so. This story proves one of my favorite adage’s… No one gets away with ANYTHING!!! WELCOME TO THE REAL WORLD and p.s
THE WORLD IS NOT YOUR IDIOT!!!
