After the Grand Opening of our ”New Store” www.BuddhaShop.com.au at Albury we now have a total of three stores.
Our original Buddhist Supplies Shop at A Bears Old Wares / Buddha Shop located at 12 High St, Yackandandah. Victoria. Australia
Our On Line Store at www.BuddhaShop.com.au
And our newest addition www.BuddhaShop.com.au at 478 B Dean Street, Albury. New South Wales Australia

We decided to open the new Albury store after so many requests as many people cannot make the trip to Yackandandah on a regular basis.
Many people only get to Yackandandah once or twice a year, now they can just drop in when shopping in Albury it’s made shopping with us much easier and less time consuming .
As for our on line website shopping well during the last six months sales have jumped around 100% – we still pack and post daily worldwide but most of our customer base is in Australia. Visit our website to see our range of goods just click here - you’ll be amazed at what we have available.
We would like to extend our New Year Wishes for a Happy Safe and Prosperous 2012 to all of our Customers, their families and loved ones as well as the whole world and beyond.
