Uncle's Rare Finds is an antique shop owned by Uncle that appears frequently in the series. It also contains a library and research lab to study magical subjects.

Overview

The shop is located in Chinatown, Sanfrancisco, and has probably been around for more than four decades. The shop itself is located on the main floor, and there is an upper level that is used for extra storage. There is also a library and a spare room in back where Uncle practices chi spells. This is also where he keeps his ingredients for the spells, as well as other valuable objects. A running gag throught the series is Uncle being called away to find artifacts, assist in magic activities, and travel around the world, leaving the shop in the care of whoever happens to be available at the time, often resulting in some form of disaster.

Trivia

• The antiques store was previously a disco shop.
• According to the official site, Uncle has never made a sale in his shop.
• Captain Black, when asked to "watch the shop" by Uncle, began to study from Uncles chi spell books with humorous consequences.
