| | |  QQS Front Counter
Once you’ve found all the goods you wish to purchase, bring them along and make your way towards the counter which is alongside the broom displays on the left wall of the shop.
Behind the counter your shopkeeper will most likely be and if not, feel free to ring the bell on the counter and he shall report to your assistance as soon as he can. Do not abuse this bell. It is charmed in a way that it will only ring once every few minutes to avoid people who think this is a musical performance. If you are kept waiting for a few moments there are some mints and Bertie Botts Jelly Beans, in two separate bowls, on either side of the counter to keep you busy.
Please be polite when queuing and do not push in. If you need to look at the prices of your items then do so, on the wall behind the counter there is a list of all the items so you don’t have to go back scurrying around the shop. To the side of this list is a door which leads to the back room, please ask if you wish to enter.
We wish you well on your purchased goods, please return again soon.
Ooc: Please do not RP for the shopkeeper (Charely Potter). The Diagon Alley Rules apply at all times. If you have any questions, you can ask them in the Diagon Alley Questions thread.

"Well I am not sure. But if you like one I can get for you." She smiled looking at Maggie. "Could I get two more of these, please." She said smiling at her new friend. "No your not blabbeing. Your just excited about Quidditch. I'm the some way."

Very nervously, I NEVER get nervous, Aaron finally approached the counter. With Iris still at his side, he was finally going to buy his own broom. "Excuse me ma'am. I would like to purchase an Oakshaft 2010, please." HOORAY!!!! After 6 long years. The words finally came out of his mouth. He looked over to Iris, still holding her hand, and then back to the shopkeep. "Oh! Sorry... Can I also get a broom maintenance kit and a Quidditch World magazine, please?" Can't forget those. | |

Still holding Aaron's hand, Iris walked up to the counter. As he spoke to the shop keeper, Iris smiled to herself. She could hear the excitement and nerves in his voice.
Whilst Aaron talked, Iris just let her mind wander. Hopefully the shopkeeper would be able to see that Iris was with Aaron, and that they wouldn't bother asking Iris if she needed anything. Shopkeepers who do that bug Iris; surely she'd say if she wanted to buy something, too, right? | |

Willow was excited to find another quidditch fan. "I'd love to try out but I'll probably be really bad..."

I tried out my first year and made it." Kay said smiling at the first year. "Have you been flying and practicing? I can help you if you'd like. But not to much being your on a different team." Kay said giggling. She hope Willow would at least try to get on the team.

"Sure," Maggie said with a smile as she summoned a broom from the back, but then he added a few other things to the list. "No problem," she added with a chuckle as she grabbed a kit and a magazine and began packaging the broom. "If that's everything it's going to come to 9 Galleons, 5 Sickles," she said finally, mentally smiling at the small price reductions she was giving to people all day.

Sheridan nodded, thanks she grinned at the woman as her dad counted out the money, she watched the woman polish her new broom. She never thought she'd get excited about a broom. Odd. This was what Hogwarts was doing to her. And she was happy about it. Very odd. She inspected the broom, not knowing what she was looking for, it was al clean and shiny and her name was there. Yep thats the one she grinned as her father passed the shop keeper the money | |

Amethyst entered the shop full of people buzzing and staring around the new Twigger 101. Although she wasnt old enough to buy a broom, the game Quidditch fascinated her. Being brought up in a Muggle family meant she didn't know of all the wizarding games. This one really interested her. She had previously bought the book 'The History of Quidditch' earlier during the day, and found it highly entertaining. She came in here to see if there was anymore information on the game, and sure enought there was. She picked up both books, all five magasines, and a snitch. Although she had no use for the snitch, she thought it would make agreat ornament and reminder of the wizarding world during the holidays when she was away from Hogwarts. She took all the things to the counter. There was no-one there so she pressed a bell.

"5 Galleons and 1 Sickle." She said putting them on the counter. "Thank you very much." she said waiting for Maggie to finish. "Willow here are your magazines." Kay said smiling. "If you'd like to talk some more about Quidditch we could go get Ice cream." She said smiling at the first year.

"Good morning," she said brightly with a smile, "Will this be all?"

She took out her small purse and the kind woman 4 galleons, 10 sickles and 11 knuts exactly. She took her purchased and with a thanking smile, she said "goodbye" to the woman and briskly left the shop.

Darn, only galleons. Ah well, he would have to get change. "Here's 10 galleons," he said as he handed the money over to the woman. ALMOST THERE!!! | |

"Then I shall certainly take a copy," he replied with a nod walking up to the counter to check out. "How much will that be?"

And then he took his magazine and the repair kit, and held it under his right arm. And then finally, the Quidditch Captain took a hold of his Oakshaft 2010. HIS oakshaft 2010. "Thank you very much!" He said grinning.
He looked at Iris, back at his broom, and back to Iris as he turned on his back foot. He made a B-Line towards the door, hoping Iris was following. He pushed the door open, and walked out... | |

Why couldn't that wretched girl from before be as nice? "8 Sickles," she said with a smile as she wrapped up the book for the nice young man and offered him the plate of cookies next to the package.

Adam went up to the front counter holding a Nimbus 7003. If he was going to play Quidditch, he'd have to get serious and buy his own broom. So he stood in line, waiting for someone to attend him. Meanwhile he examined the beauty a little bit longer as he twirled it in his hands a while, touching the crisp twigs from the end part.

Maggie said absent-mindly as she rifled through a few things under the counter and then popped back up to help whichever customer had stepped forward. Spotting a little boy next she smiled. "Hello, did you find everything okay?" she asked.

"7 Galleons," she said as she took the broom from the boy and began wrapping it, acting as if she'd said and done nothing out of the ordinary.

He rummaged through his pants and found his little flip wallet. Opening it up, he spotted a 7 little galleons and passed it to the shopkeeper.
" Here you go M'am, you will see all 7 galleons in there."He said with a cheerful smile.

Hugo walked up to the counter with his Firebolt 600, kit and clothes.
It really was beautiful.
"That's all, 10 galleons and 5 sickles, right?" he smiled at the shopkeep and grabbed some money out his pocket.
