You'll need a trade account at the majority of locksmith outlets to buy these, however there are internet sites that don't seem to bothered about who they sell to. Buying is easy - learning to use them is the difficult part. If your serious about learning, then I'd suggest you get on a non destructive opening course to learn about the different types of picks before you spend your cash. Google "Institute of Certified Locksmiths" for some good training links.
Also, there's some great videos on line, places like YouTube and others, for picking techniques. To start buy a cheapo Yale type of night rim lock (less than a tenner), mount it on a board so you can practice.
