They may not be the best store for used gear, but I would certainly make a stop at B&H if I was in NYC.

70,000+ sq. ft of photography gear.

Oh, and Adorama is also in NYC...

ok

I already knew these stores, in fact, I have that stores in my travel planning.

I was looking for a more specialized store

Thank´s

Sadly, NYC no longer has any of the old magic stores, they've closed down or moved to the burbs, thanks to rising costs, the collapse of film camera prices due to digital, and the internet.

Tamarkin is now in Connecticut. Koh's and a bunch of others are on Long Island.

You might try Calumet.

Though I haven't visited, looks like K&M in Chinatown may be worth a look:

Sorry, I feel shame for the Big Apple

Great hint, I will visit K&M in November, when running through NY.
