| | |  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.

Kyle as most Hogwarts students knew, was a lemon-head she loved all things lemon flavored for some odd reason. Then turning to Simon she smiled again, "if you don't have any plans you can join - really its no problem besides its awfully warm today." she offered as she stepped closer to the exit. Selina suddenly felt very out-of-the-loop when Kyle and Simon began to talk. The two seemed very engrossed in one another to even notice the little second year beside them or at least Kyle did. Coughing lightly Selina said, "Well, um I'll just be going." Trying her hardest not to be noticed Selina turned to leave.

Plithsev walked into the store. She was wearing a black t-shirt and short pants. Her t-shirt was the kind of t-shirt that doesn't cover the shoulders,she liked it that way because it meant that people could see her muscles. She had blond hair tied in a ponytail and was very macho. She had her hands on her hips and was staring critically around the store. She approached the front counter. "I want a Oakshast 2010." S he slapped eight galleons and 4 sickles on the table. She would have the very best broom.

Her manner proved it. Maggie's eyebrow rose slightly before she retrieved a broom from the back and brought it back. "Anything else?"

"Not really," Maggie said with a shrug, "Otherwise everyone would want them. You have to be on a secondary team before they consider drafting you in the big leagues, though." Ugh. Even when she didn't like people Maggie couldn't help helping people.

Louisa, the still-hooded girl, dragged the broom away behind her. If only there was a way to hide such a thing when she got out of the shop. Oh well, she had to depend on the hoody. "So.." Looking up at the price sign. "5 Galleons and 3 Sickles?!" She almost shouted before falling silent at once and looking around terrified. She SO could've been detected by unwanted people (a.k.a nosy friends). "I mean... I'll see what I have."
She leant the tall thing on the desk and sank her hand into her pocket getting all of her money out. She should've brought all the money her mom sent her. "Err...Ma'am? I have like... 5 Galleons and one Sickle." A begging smile drawn on her face. "Like... can I..umm.. get you the rest later?" She officially was having the worst day this year at Diagon Alley. "I need to send this.." Gesture to the broom. ".. to my room today, please." Like before her guardian would come back and find out about her new interest?

"Opening day sale anyway," Maggie said dismissively with a wave of her hand, "So that's fine."

Maggie quickly rang everything up, wrapping, bagging, and totalling it all as she did so. When she had finished, she looked back at the girl and replied, "14 Galleons and 16 Sickles, dear."

Emily walked over to the counter, glad she had finally got her sister a present. She placed the goggles on the counter and smiled half-heartedly. "Just this thanks." she said gestering to the quidditch goggles. Hopefully her sister would like them. And she still had enough money for ice-cream! | |

Penny arrived at the counter, arms leaden down with the weight of all her selections...
Pleased with her choices:
A Firebolt
Broom Service Kit
Googles
Practice Robes
Snitch
She admired the firebolt, imagining how it feel to fly it when she got home, with wind blowing her long black hair, soaring through the sky.....
Only when she heard the girl in front of her speak, did she come out of her reverie.. Looking at her, Penny thought the girl was maybe a year or two older than herself.. and then paying more attention, realised the girl seemed to have somthing on her mind, the smile she offered the assistant was perfunctual, not reaching her eyes...
Penny waited for the assistant to finish with the girl and serve her...

" Have a nice day ma'am" She grinned and darted away dragging the broom with her a liiiittle bit disrespectfully.

Maggie glared once the girl's back was turned, cringing slightly as she drug the broom out of the shop. Please don't come back tomorrow, she thought.

Passing her money over the counter and taking her bag, she offered the shopkeeper one last smile. "Thanks..." she muttered then turned to exit the shop. As she did so she noticed the girl carrying a broom behind her looking at her. Why?
She gave her a rather confused smile and hurried out of the shop. For ice-cream! | |

Penny almost dropped her selections on the floor when the assistant yelled..
But immediately shook herself out of her day-dream.. Placing her objects on the counter...She gave the assistant a winning smile and said " Good afternoon, sorry for keeping you, I was lost in thoughts for a moment"...."How much for all these please"

AHHHH!!! Maggie glanced back at the girl, about to answer her question when she saw the size of the girl. "Errr, what year are you?"

Not for the first time today, Penny wondered why all the shopkeepers where so cross...She answered the lady a little nervous - not wanting to be scolded (for what, she didn't yet know) "I..i..i'm going to be starting f..first year"
Penny wondered why she would want to know what year she was....
Surely none of her purchases where illegal for her to buy ??....

Ah. As she had suspected. "I see. The thing is, love, I can't sell you this broom," she said with a nod where it might have usually been a sigh.

Jacob moved towards the counter with his new goggles, his new Beaters bat, his new broom. Yup once he paid, Jacob would be ready to bash some more heads... oh those poor Puff, no longer was it going to be the Ravenclaws that needed their own ward in the Hospital Wing. "I believe thats it." he told the Shopkeeper, placing the Goggles, Bat, and Cleansweep on the counter.

Then again, it was going to a good cause. His Professional Quidditch Career. Jacob counted out the money and handed it to the shopkeeper. "Thank you." he said, taking his new broom, bat and goggles, and started to the next most important shop... Ice Cream.
