Yes. He confirms I definitely can’t afford any of this stuff. Ignoring the fact that I’m in Sydney and in lockdown and places rarely ship to Australia for less than $70aud.
It's insane how a 20+ year old saga has this power over people. I love Harry Potter and your channel reminds me how good it is to be a Harry Potter fan. Thanks Peter!
I have more willpower than that!! ...or do I? I've never sen merch this good!! I really want the blue phoenix hoodie, the Slytherin jacket and the Slytherin cardigan. I'm getting that Slytherin cardigan and wearing it all the time
@@ThePotterCollector Will you be there on opening day? I've had the trip planned for.months and am sad all my favorite potter heads are getting in early and assumedly leaving early
Hey Peter! Just wanna say that I’m so thankful for your videos! For many of us Potterheads who aren’t able to be there to vicariously live it through you, that’s amazing! Love the content!
I would have wanted the store to be more Diangon alley store -like, more old and not so modern so you really got that feeling of entering another world!
Harry Potter lane already has something like that… At least they HAVE this in New York, don’t chastise them for running THEIR STORE how THEY WANT. Plus people would want something different. If you can’t afford it don’t be a sucker about it. Let people enjoy it.
As a Ravenclaw, I'm loving that I am finally starting to see some blue and bronze things appear! I like the blue and silver of the movies but I adore the blue and bronze of the books.
I love how Peter just gets straight to business what we watchers came for and doesn't speak for 6 hours like other TH-camrs do. Amazing video man. Watched it through without skipping!
Absolutely elevators are always just plain white or plain gray and they just take you out of the experience especially at Disney. They are always so clean and crisp and they feel like an underground factory when you’re experiencing the little mermaid
I just found out I’m going to NYC for a day and I’m going here and I was like “I need Peter to post a tour of this place.” Sure enough I get on TH-cam and here it is. Love the video and I’m glad you always include prices so we know what to expect!
Yeah. He got me excited for a moment. My favorite merch is 9 3/4 because only potterheads know it, and it's not cringey looking. I thought there was going to be more subtle merch, but yeah, it all screamed Harry Potter lol.
This place honestly looks amazing... But the big 'oof' that stood out to me was the price of the varsity jackets... $150 USD? As an Aussie, that's $193.95 AUD here... I have never in my lifetime seen a varsity jacket almost $200... Theming or not, that's a 'little' overpriced. Otherwise, awesome store; would be cool to see myself one day.
I’m with you. I had one “varisity” type jacket, in my life, and didn’t get it until I could get it through an “owner friend” so it was $100. Since it was cut off of me following a car accident, it’s very hard to justify ever spending that much on a jacket, again! 😂
I’m at Universal Studios and have the full Slytherin school uniform the robe by itself was massively expensive. The cardigan alone was $90 so it adds up.
I was in NYC yesterday you have to make reservations folks that were waiting at 7am didn't get in store till 7pm!!! those were folks with tickets no thank you I'm not waiting from 4 am outside in NYC till 7at night !!!
This magical tour was amazing! The detail that went into the store is phenomenal. I'm in love 😘 with the railing posts with the different character wands and that breathtaking archway of magical books. Thank you Peter,🤗 stay safe, healthy, and positive. 😷🧙♂️🙏
The problem with Harry Potter is that its story focuses too much on Gryffindor and Slytherin. I would love to see more of all four houses competing with each other
1:40 i love that blue case 1:50 ❤️ the hoodie too 9:20 🏆 the trophy 😍 14:00 the clock 😍 32:18 ❤️ the tote bag 😀🙏🏻 Hope someday i can visit New York 😊🙏🏻
That's a awesome store. I just wish that the West Coast or dotted around the country, would do something similar. Thank you Peter for not just filming this, but also editing it for long hours into the night last night. Thank you. Alonia143.
I just love how detailed Peter’s reviews are! You wont really miss a thing as a viewer! I could actually see a poll where viewers vote him to review the store 💕
I can’t imagine how much money a die hard fan would spend in there. Gosh everything is too expensive but the detail of everything is so insane!!!! Omg I have never wanted to go to NY so badly!!
If only j.k. Rowling knew what her book was gonna become when she wrote the 1st one. She had no way of knowing the empire she was about to build for herself
YEAH! I mean, if she had, maybe she'd have spent more time figuring out the rules and intricacies! She contradicts herself A LOT and that makes it hard to know what the rules and knowns are. And I'm setting up my Drakonian Trilogy with that in mind. Every rule about WHY something works the way it does, of WHY Josie feels the way she feels, and HOW EXACTLY things happened to get to this EXACT POINT IN TIME with all of the players in their own situations and with their feelings is explained in my notes which I continuously refer back to from month to month to keep it straight. And I've been working on this series for 9 years now....there's a lot...
@@melissanichols2563 that very smart. People like to go back and pick apart the rules because they are so invested in the series. I love it, my parents will sometimes go in depth and ask me questions that are fun to answer. It requires me to really know my detailed HP knowledge. Another book series I read is a GREAT example of how to set up a universe I great detail. Read patricia briggs book series if u want an FANTASTIC example of how to do exactly what you're referring to
@@melissanichols2563 yeah as a writer myself, I have decided to write my entire series before even trying to get the first book published. That way you can really go back and make sure that everything flows and links together perfectly. Hindsight is a marvellous tool and often if you just “go with the flow” thing will start to contradict themselves.
@@LunaNova1122 my thoughts precisely!! As for me I’ve got almost all of the first book planned and I’ve got rough ideas for the second and third books, and I’ll fill in plot holes as the series progresses or maybe I’ll leave some open for another trilogy in the same world or something. But you can bet everything’s gonna flow and be deliberate once I decide on a path!
I mean...I am in awe. The store of dreams! I've watched the video twice my eyes can't keep up with all the amazing merchandise. We have booked to go to WBS Tours London next month but this has to be on the bucket list. Another fab video, I could of walked round there with you for DAYS
Is it weird to be in love with an elevator? Because I’m pretty sure I am. The attention to detail is superb, things like the wands in the railings, what a feast for the eyes! I look forward to seeing your other vids of the store, and your haul.
Thank you for taking the time to videotape such a marvelous tour! I am curious: did you check out the restrooms? It would be fabulous if the details were also done there as well.
Pretty sure it’s illegal to film in restrooms, but I would be very surprised if they didn’t include some fun references based on what we’ve seen in the vid lol
I love that the carved Hogwarts crest on the wall has the proper eagle on it! A pity most of the merch for sale seems to have the wrong House mascot and colors. I had such high hopes that at least a *few* of the items here would be something a *book* fan could buy...it's an *eagle* and blue and *bronze* ! I would buy *so* much merch if I could get my proper House colors and mascot!
This store is literally any Harry Potter superfan’s dream store!😍 They literally didn’t leave anything out and managed to make the littlest things feel and look so magical!⚡️ I absolutely loved the Ministry of Magic room, I love the green bricks. Truly amazing video Peter! I need to go now!✨🙌🏻
You made me feel like I was there... I really appreciate your attention to detail and the effort you make to make it a experience for all of us fellow Potter fans as well.
It’s things like these that really make me want to read the book more, tell me how I’ve never read any of the harry potter books, but I completely geeked out at Universal Studios in Orlando simply because I have friends who are potter heads 💀😭 I plan on reading the books this year & becoming a potter head ⚡️
I don't know, I visited the HP store in London and wasn't that impressed. A lot of independent artisans make better HP inspired stuff (hand turned wands, toys, candies, clothes) that you can get at Wizarding festivals and on etsy that are higher quality than the officially licensed merchandise. It just lacks character for me. Like I'm not jumping up and down about any of this stuff. The experience of visiting the store looks pretty cool though. It's worth it just to ride the floo network elevator.
Yeah, it would be nice if at least *some* of the official merch got the Ravenclaw mascot and House colors right, too! It's almost like they *want* book fans to go unofficial!
I was thinking the same thing. The store decor is amazing with all its theming. But everything i have seen so far is for fans not for us who want to feel and be apart of the magic. Like were are the displays for Nobel Collection? And like you said get some independent creators in there to show off there talent like Danny DIY and others that can make legit prop replicas!!!! Give us more magic. They went far but for us HP fans its not far enough we want to step into the books and movies. Not just see them but experience them.
@@jessicaravenqueen768 Trouble is, they're too big and obvious, they can't get away with selling unofficial stuff without adding hefty licensing fees, which would jack up the price. Small fry on Etsy can get away with it because TPTB can pretend they don't know about them.
The Harry Potter store is not far from me, so I briefly checked it out. The items seem cheaply made and obscenely overpriced. Yes, it’s an interesting store and fun to check out, but a lot of the “collector items” seem pretty throw-away and something that will be gathering dust.
Percy Jackson isn't even in the same league as Harry Potter. No offense, but HP is literally the most popular and successful Book series on the planet, I mean it's literally the best selling book series of all time, for Merlin's sake!!
Thanks for showing us this amazing store, Peter! Great video as always! But...some of the merchandise is WAY over priced! I sat here gasping in shock every time you mentioned a price! I used to work for Warner Bros Studio Stores many years ago, and when they first got the licence for Harry Potter, the products were much more reasonably priced! I think over the years WB have got a little greedy with their pricing - they’ll come with with some excuse as to why some products are priced that way, but $12 for a keyring, $70+ for a spirit jersey and $30 for a tee is ridiculous!
Wow! I spotted some items that have been discontinued from Universal Studios Orlando site, Pottery Barn Teen and Lounge Fly!😍 But I haven't seen them on the Harry Potter NYC shop site, so maybe they have become in-store exclusives for them🤔 hmm. I hope they get added on their site🤞 Wish I could have been at the opening! Thanks for the video Peter! ⚡💙
Thank you so much for this thorough tour of the store. I'm sure there are plenty of Harry Potter fans out there like myself who will never visit the USA in their life and we really appreciate you making your videos and sharing them with us. I loved every minute of it. ♥ ☺
Awh I went there in Feb this year and the queue was like an hour long and it was snowing and cold.. spent like 2 hours inside and spent nearly $400 😂 still have my chocolate frog and Bertie boys every flavoured beans. Slytherin Quiddich shirt, got the shoulder bag, magnets, key rings, butter beer… I got so much stuff 😂
GREAT video Peter! Thank you so much! I liked the gold and blue lunch box, the Butterbeer and mirror of Erised key chains, the interactive pensive and Bowtruckle peep holes, the great quality of their clothing material - hence the high prices - wow that varsity jacket was beautifully stitched! I loved the elevator, the carpet in the House and the Mina Lima sections.
When he said a group of Bowtruckles is called a branch 'someone should alert Newt ' and at 16:48 he popped up on the screen , I was like ' omg' HAHAHAHAHAAA
yea maybe like a small ford car that harry and ron flew in the top left of the shirt or something like that because everything there is just HUFFLEPUFF *or any different house* in a different font
@@snusemcgoose1001 the original mascot is an eagle, but the films made it into a raven. I see why people would be annoyed but hey, more Mascots for us! Tho it is REALLY HARD to find blue and copper with an eagle merch
@@inmylifeivelovedthemall Oh gotcha Ive never read the books, not for any bad reason just never got to it, but wait so are they eagleclaws in the book? I’m a ravenclaw too
@@snusemcgoose1001 They are still Ravenclaws in the books, the word Ravenclaw comes from the founders name, Rowena Ravenclaw. The eagle is symbol of strength, immortality, intelligence, wit, wisdom, and creativity.
@@snusemcgoose1001 "Raven" is another word for black. Someone with black hair can have "raven tresses" for example. The eagle has black claws, hence Ravenclaw. But apparently the people at Warner Brothers are semi-illiterate and stopped reading after the first few letters, and never read the books at all. In the books, the Ravenclaw colors are blue and bronze, it's Slytherin that have white/silver as one of their colors. We're **not** Slytherin! I refuse to buy merch that can't even get our colors and mascot right, and I can't tell you how much money it's saved me!
As someone who deals with product-making, those sets and props are so beautiful! It's always a dream of mine to work with the props department of HP! I hope the covid situation goes away soon because I cannot wait to travel the world again! This stop will definitely be on my bucket list! Thank you for doing this tour! Really appreciate it so much~
Your fully detailed video is very enjoyable to watch for people like me not living in New York and no choice but to watch review tours like this. And by far the best tour video of the store. Kuddos to you.
I am living the experience through you, hopefully next year I will be able to visit the store in person 😍 all my savings are dedicated to this trip! Love your videos Peter! ✨
Never in my life have I been so fortunate to have family that live in New York City! Now I can go to the Harry Potter store whenever I come to visit them!! 😁
I wish Harry Potter stuff like this had existed in 2001 when the films first came out There’s so much merchandise & tours & theme parks now! *Growing up in the 00s I would’ve absolutely loved all that stuff* us millennials missed out on all these great things! 🥺 ✨🔮 🪄 ⚡️✨
Thanks for doing a walkthrough. You did an awesome job in showcasing what the store has to offer, and thanks for stating the prices of items too. I loved all the interactive stuff. The pensieve wand was so cool, especially with the part when you hold onto both Harry's and Voldemort's wands! I was also blown away by the elevators and the floo network!! Amazing. It would be a dream to come to this store. I don't even need to buy anything to be happy because the store itself is such a fun experience, but of course, how can one not be tempted to buy something, lol.
I just want to point out how helpful it is that he tells the price
it really is! i also love that he tells the size range on the clothing! im short and chubby so most my clothes are unisex/men's M or women's XL
Yes. He confirms I definitely can’t afford any of this stuff. Ignoring the fact that I’m in Sydney and in lockdown and places rarely ship to Australia for less than $70aud.
stop being poor
JESUS
Agreed
I’m only 10 minutes through the video and I’m already in debt.
I’m at 5 minutes and in debt, so you did so you have better self control than I do 😂
I want everything!!!!
I have $60 LOL
LMMFAO!!!! Im taking my nephew there in Oct. This comment says it all lol

YES, bro! Harry Potter is an emotion.
Has it been 20 years? Geesh
@@TinyWolfxx Yeah! First movie in 2001 and first book in 1997
It won't be around once the novelty wears off. A whole Harry Potter merch store doesnt seem to have much longevity in the bigger picture.
@Annabel Caye The Warner Bros Store must still be open at your local mall.
Whoever decided to make the elevators the floo network needs a raise
100% agree with this statement!
Exactly
Way cool
You better make sure that you have about $500 or more because everything is so cool and expensive
I didn't quite spend that much, but yes, that would be SO easy to do!
I have more willpower than that!! ...or do I? I've never sen merch this good!! I really want the blue phoenix hoodie, the Slytherin jacket and the Slytherin cardigan. I'm getting that Slytherin cardigan and wearing it all the time
$500? I would probably spend like $1000
Lol are you new to potter collector? There is no limit to the amount he will spend on Harry Potter stuff. Whatever his job is, I need to get one. 😁😁

So True

Go to Universal Studios and visit Harry Potter lane. They do it like that.
mindyschocolate i cant afford that lol
So true, it looks like a Banana Republic.
Harry Potter lane already has something like that… At least they HAVE this in New York, don’t chastise them for running THEIR STORE how THEY WANT. Plus people would want something different. If you can’t afford it don’t be a sucker about it. Let people enjoy it.

Varsity jackets are more of an American thing, so it would be more expensive in America. Plus they lose their appeal if everyone has one
Good point, it's great we "can try them on," purchase isn't necessary 😂

Lmao same

*Never* before in my life have I wanted to buy the whole store *so badly*

The wand chooses the wizard, but in this case, our wallets chooses the wands

This was such a treat! Never wanted to go to New York more than this moment right now
Right!!! I’m planning a trip now
Imagine getting to go during Christmas time. Then also exploring New York with the snow. Hopefully enjoyable snow and not a blizzard
makes me want to go to nyc even more... just to SEE this store
Im so excited! Im going tomorrow
I’m so stoked that the US has it’s own MinaLima store now! That was a huge highlight of my last trip to London.
the whole store and merchandise is literally magnificient and ethereal, the details that is paid attention too is everything.
The problem with Harry Potter is that its story focuses too much on Gryffindor and Slytherin. I would love to see more of all four houses competing with each other

Yeah, it would be nice if at least *some* of the official merch got the Ravenclaw mascot and House colors right, too! It's almost like they *want* book fans to go unofficial!
I was thinking the same thing. The store decor is amazing with all its theming. But everything i have seen so far is for fans not for us who want to feel and be apart of the magic. Like were are the displays for Nobel Collection? And like you said get some independent creators in there to show off there talent like Danny DIY and others that can make legit prop replicas!!!! Give us more magic. They went far but for us HP fans its not far enough we want to step into the books and movies. Not just see them but experience them.
@@jessicaravenqueen768 Trouble is, they're too big and obvious, they can't get away with selling unofficial stuff without adding hefty licensing fees, which would jack up the price. Small fry on Etsy can get away with it because TPTB can pretend they don't know about them.
The Harry Potter store is not far from me, so I briefly checked it out. The items seem cheaply made and obscenely overpriced. Yes, it’s an interesting store and fun to check out, but a lot of the “collector items” seem pretty throw-away and something that will be gathering dust.
Not me thinking on going on a 3 or 4 day trip to NY just to go to this store, I will go crazy in there, this is so magical and beautiful
We NEED something like this for Percy Jackson
Percy Jackson isn't even in the same league as Harry Potter. No offense, but HP is literally the most popular and successful Book series on the planet, I mean it's literally the best selling book series of all time, for Merlin's sake!!
I love the design of the store, there's so much to look at.
I feel like if you ever make any merch of your own a good phrase for it would be “Magic happens when you least expect it”
I love this!
Thanks for showing us this amazing store, Peter! Great video as always!
But...some of the merchandise is WAY over priced! I sat here gasping in shock every time you mentioned a price!
I used to work for Warner Bros Studio Stores many years ago, and when they first got the licence for Harry Potter, the products were much more reasonably priced! I think over the years WB have got a little greedy with their pricing - they’ll come with with some excuse as to why some products are priced that way, but $12 for a keyring, $70+ for a spirit jersey and $30 for a tee is ridiculous!
Can you email me? I'd love to chat about the old WB Stores and how they were set up, etc. Do you have any photos?? thepottercollector@gmail.com
@@ThePotterCollector hi peter im new can you pls tell me where can i find some hp collecting stuff
shopping list: wands, varsity jacket, Hogwarts hoodies, pullovers, pins, pens, journals,
need to withdraw some golds now at gringotts
bahaha same
And that would be 10,000 dollars 💀
2:49 that's the griffindor hat luna wore in half blood prince. I wonder if the eyes blink also?
Wow! I spotted some items that have been discontinued from Universal Studios Orlando site, Pottery Barn Teen and Lounge Fly!😍 But I haven't seen them on the Harry Potter NYC shop site, so maybe they have become in-store exclusives for them🤔 hmm. I hope they get added on their site🤞
Wish I could have been at the opening!
Thanks for the video Peter! ⚡💙
The word “store” is too little of a word for that place. Just WOW!!!
I also see Mindy and Larry!! 👋
Thank you so much for this thorough tour of the store.
I'm sure there are plenty of Harry Potter fans out there like myself who will never visit the USA in their life and we really appreciate you making your videos and sharing them with us.
I loved every minute of it. ♥ ☺
I've always wanted to go to New York. And now this gives me another reason to!
Awh I went there in Feb this year and the queue was like an hour long and it was snowing and cold.. spent like 2 hours inside and spent nearly $400 😂 still have my chocolate frog and Bertie boys every flavoured beans. Slytherin Quiddich shirt, got the shoulder bag, magnets, key rings, butter beer… I got so much stuff 😂
This store is so amazing! One day when I go to New York, I'll visit this store.
Oh my stars! This store is outstanding. Love what they did with the elevator. Genius❣️ Thanks Peter 💖
Did I just spot a rare moment of me running @7:42 🤣
Yes, you did! A wild Mindy running through the Dirigible Plumb trees.
@@ThePotterCollector why was she running 😂
@@terrrell7798 I think because she didn't want to ruin the shot. Haha!
Thank you so much Peter for editing the whole video in record time and for always sharing with us the latest from the wizarding world :')✨
I may have broken my editing record. :D
GREAT video Peter! Thank you so much! I liked the gold and blue lunch box, the Butterbeer and mirror of Erised key chains, the interactive pensive and Bowtruckle peep holes, the great quality of their clothing material - hence the high prices - wow that varsity jacket was beautifully stitched! I loved the elevator, the carpet in the House and the Mina Lima sections.
When he said a group of Bowtruckles is called a branch 'someone should alert Newt ' and at 16:48 he popped up on the screen , I was like ' omg' HAHAHAHAHAAA
Lol, there will be soooooo many Prof. Snape wands personalized with “Always”.
And "Pg. 394"
its so creepy 😭
Ob………viously
I don't like the fact that every single piece of clothing screams " I'm a Harry Potter Fan ". I would love some items to be a bit more subtle
I have a MACUSA logo T shirt and none of the normies realize it's from HP. Same with the Dark Mark T-shirt.
Agreed. It feels weird to me that the theming seems way cooler than the merch it’s supposed to be selling.
yea maybe like a small ford car that harry and ron flew in the top left of the shirt or something like that because everything there is just HUFFLEPUFF *or any different house* in a different font
No, the clothes say “I’m a rich Potter fan, b$#&!” Lol.
Box Lunch has better merchandise but I’d still love to go to this store.
Im a Ravenclaw and it really bothers me seeing the merchandising with a raven instead of an eagle. I think Im never gonna used to
Wait did they change which bird it was?
@@snusemcgoose1001 the original mascot is an eagle, but the films made it into a raven. I see why people would be annoyed but hey, more Mascots for us! Tho it is REALLY HARD to find blue and copper with an eagle merch
@@inmylifeivelovedthemall Oh gotcha Ive never read the books, not for any bad reason just never got to it, but wait so are they eagleclaws in the book? I’m a ravenclaw too
@@snusemcgoose1001 They are still Ravenclaws in the books, the word Ravenclaw comes from the founders name, Rowena Ravenclaw. The eagle is symbol of strength, immortality, intelligence, wit, wisdom, and creativity.
@@snusemcgoose1001 "Raven" is another word for black. Someone with black hair can have "raven tresses" for example. The eagle has black claws, hence Ravenclaw. But apparently the people at Warner Brothers are semi-illiterate and stopped reading after the first few letters, and never read the books at all. In the books, the Ravenclaw colors are blue and bronze, it's Slytherin that have white/silver as one of their colors. We're **not** Slytherin! I refuse to buy merch that can't even get our colors and mascot right, and I can't tell you how much money it's saved me!
I’m from Australia going to visit the store and wanted to buy some books. How much are the hardcovers at 28:00 as well as the whole box set?
As someone who deals with product-making, those sets and props are so beautiful! It's always a dream of mine to work with the props department of HP! I hope the covid situation goes away soon because I cannot wait to travel the world again! This stop will definitely be on my bucket list! Thank you for doing this tour! Really appreciate it so much~
Imagine buying a $20 onesie for a 2 month old kid that’s gonna grow out of it in 3 weeks
This is so amazing and the merchandise is beautiful; though I do wish it was more size inclusive.
Can’t wait to go here opening day!!! 😁🥳🥳🥳
See you there!
@@amyk222 how do u get early access tickets?
So I just binge watched Harry Potter on HBOMAX. Became a fan all over again. Cried my eyes out at the end. Gotta visit this store!!
Your fully detailed video is very enjoyable to watch for people like me not living in New York and no choice but to watch review tours like this. And by far the best tour video of the store. Kuddos to you.
This is amazing and I can’t wait to visit it on my next visit.
I am living the experience through you, hopefully next year I will be able to visit the store in person 😍 all my savings are dedicated to this trip! Love your videos Peter! ✨
Hope you can soon!
Have you been able to visit the store? Please tell me you have...
I want to buy everything!
I'm always amazed just how popular Harry Potter became and still is. ❤
Never in my life have I been so fortunate to have family that live in New York City! Now I can go to the Harry Potter store whenever I come to visit them!! 😁
I am gonna be BROKE after visiting, oh god😂🙈
I am so excited to see this, I have been patiently waiting! Woohoo!
Thanks for waiting! :D
Man, I really love Harry Potter and that’s why I love your videos!
Every Time you upload a video it makes my day,
Keep up the great work!
Thanks Peter for the tour. I'm definitely going soon. I can't wait. I love Manhattan and it just even better
I wish Harry Potter stuff like this had existed in 2001 when the films first came out
There’s so much merchandise & tours & theme parks now!
*Growing up in the 00s I would’ve absolutely loved all that stuff*
us millennials missed out on all these great things! 🥺
✨🔮 🪄 ⚡️✨
Some point in the future there will be moving pictures on shirts, photo albums, and photo frames... I'll be waiting for Peter to give that tour!
Since I saw the prices, I expect gold flakes on every item there.
Here we go . Guess after Florida I'm off to NY 😂
🤣🤣
Book that plane ticket! :D
@@ThePotterCollector 🤭Yesss...
GREAT video! Thank you so much, Peter!!
@@ThePotterCollector Looking for best time to head to Florida next year. Get that vacations at work 😂
Thanks for doing a walkthrough. You did an awesome job in showcasing what the store has to offer, and thanks for stating the prices of items too. I loved all the interactive stuff. The pensieve wand was so cool, especially with the part when you hold onto both Harry's and Voldemort's wands! I was also blown away by the elevators and the floo network!! Amazing. It would be a dream to come to this store. I don't even need to buy anything to be happy because the store itself is such a fun experience, but of course, how can one not be tempted to buy something, lol.
Watched this 3 years ago and watching again now bc Harry Potter will always live in our hearts and memories. I have yet to visit the store.
