The Entrance Way DISPLAY WANDS ARE NOT FOR SALE. Please see a wandmaker for assistance if you wish to purchase a wand. WANDLORE REFERENCE BOOKS ARE NOT FOR SALE. Please see the books available for purchase at the counter. NO FOOD OR PETS PERMITTED PAST THIS POINT. OR ELSE. Entering the shop, you'll notice a cozy little area to the left, filled with a couple of sturdy and actually pleasant looking chairs in front of the rather large window with a rug underfoot. From here you can watch the chaos of children being matched with their first wands. Tea and coffee is available for parents while they wait for their children to be matched with their wands. There is a display of wands here in a glass case, some of them once owned by famous witches and wizards and labelled as such. Recognize any names? That's fine, but don't touch. They are part of a personal collection, on loan to Ollivanders, and are not for sale. There is also a display of holsters, polishes, and other bits and pieces. To one side there is an old brass wand-weighing machine, which will, if you place your wand on the scale and place a sickle in the coin slot, spit out a slip of parchment with your wand's specifications on it. It has been modified further however, to add recommendations of products that ought to be used on said wand such as the very polishes, oils, and rubs that just so happen to be on display. Nearby is a shelf of books on wand-related topics, also on loan to Ollivanders. You are permitted to read them if you like, but they are not for sale. If you attempt to take them out of the store they will snap at your fingers, so be warned. Quote:
OOC: You may make your own role plays here. Your characters may chat to one another or wait for a friend to be helped at the counter. Please note that this area is in view of the counter and the wandmakers can see what you are doing, so be sure your character does not cause trouble or they'll kick your character out! This is an unmanned thread and if you require shopkeeper interaction, you'll need to post them at the Counter and Wand Fittings area.
