While I do not recommend purchasing unauthorized products, it is up to you to decide whether or not to purchase something from Wish.
I feel the smaller map is more authentic to the books. In the books, the map is described as a scrap of parchment.
You could probably stain it with tea or coffee for a better coloration.
It’s a piece of parchment, but it folds out to be bigger.
I like that you don't knock the unauthentic items and instead you acknowledge that they're still useful!
Is that a reference to Cherry Wallis 😅
@@fantasticpotterheadsandwhe9431 Hey! She liked some of the cheap ones...
@@lazyhomebody1356 wasn't it just the time Turner that she liked. I remember her dropping a wand and cracking a sickle.
me too i really like that he acknowledges that they're still decent, especially for people that dont have $50 to spend on time turners/wands/and other noble collection items. some people dont have the budget but still would love to own something that looks like an original
@@Faye-vr6jc yes and Peter respects that but some others don't
I like how you are staying positive to mostly everything from wish. There are so many people that can't afford authentic stuff since it's so expensive so wish is a good option. And seeing you; which has a lot of authentic stuff and can afford buying it; still staying positive to wish stuff is great :D I have the Marauders map from noble collection, so my first thought when I saw the one from wish was: oh, that's so small. But it's very cute either way and looks good too :)
The previous video shows items of really poor quality. The items from this video were SO much higher in quality I was so impressed! It's so true though. Not everyone can afford the authorized items so this is a wonderful alternative.
It just cracks me up how some collectors just throw around the words "real" vs "fake". None of the Noble Collection wands are made of real wood, so the argument could be made that they are technically fake too. lol. Both NC and many other brands are made of resin with a metal core the same way. Noble Collection wands are made in China in the same factories as other brands. Many other brands are licensed in some way to probably the same manufacturing factories; they are just distributed differently throughout the world for different markets and price points. Some collector snobs think only a Noble Collection branded wand is real and all others fake and that is NOT TRUE. Although The Noble Collection is definitely high quality and better made than most, that doesn't make other brands or distributors fake; just different. It's a matter of preference. There's not only one true and all powerful official source. lol. NC has a good reputation for making quality replicas but they are not the only licensed company to make replicas of wands and they don't even produce all the wands from characters that are available either. Only ignorant collector snobs would stick to only NC items when there is so much more out there of great quality and authenticity too; even if wish's reputation is to sell some actual fake items. Obviously, if you prefer the Noble Collection brand (understandably so) then it's all good, but to say any other brand or distributor is fake and not official or authentic is just flat out wrong. Are there fake or counterfeit wands? Yes, of course, but that isn't all non Noble Collection branded brands. It's a matter of preference and just because one may be made slightly better quality than another doesn't make it real vs fake.
@@MarcGardner I love this comment and completely agree
@@MarcGardner When I see collectors saying "Real Vs Fake", it always brings to mind "Officially licensed vs not licensed", not necessarily the quality of the wand itself. From what I understand WB is kinda stingy with handing out their trademark. But I think that there are super beautiful non licensed stuff out that that deserves a look- I've only ever had non- licensed wands, and I think they're gorgeous. Just trying to give another opinion. :)
@@MarcGardner in the video he said unauthorized means fake and authorize means Real and noble collection does make ones from wood just a an fyi
The Noble Collection Lucius Malfoy wand is going to eat the Wish wand!!!😂😂😂😂
Hahahaha
So, turns out, my Hermione wand that I got at a comiccon is fake, and my Voldermort wand that I got in a mystery thing, in a toy store is real, I’m kind of really mad😅
Yes, most comic con HP wands are not authorized.
@@ThePotterCollector the things I wish I knew at the time! I’ll just go throw my money at Noble Collection☺️
That is not right.
I remember someone getting the Lucius’s snake attachment to their wand at a comic con and it was legit.
Really comes to show that you never know what to get with a vendor.
@@gabrielleduplessis7388 I know right! And it’s wasn’t cheap either I think I paid something like 45$! But I’m glad the snake attachment was real!
@@missimperfectlyfine7 it really does! I paid 35 or 45 can’t remember, it’s not stupidly high, but not low either! It sucks. I mean, my mystery wand is a real one and I got it at a toy store, but not the one I got at ComicCon, I’m a little sad over it😂
Only Potterheads and subscribers here BTW u are The BEST
You are too!
Peter your replays are always so nice and usefull! you are really good at this
@@ThePotterCollector Do you have more wands i really want one because i cant afford one i live in the philippines plssssssssssssssss 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺
Hi
Only og's remember the old wish vid lol
ya i remember too
@@johnmichael1989 ye
I guess I’m an og then, lol
@@blakewilliams4396 haha yeah
I remember
The real Marauders map is way to big lol
It is quite massive!
IKR my brother's friend got it for me and when I opened it I got surprised
Lol the hermione wands look the same despite the color 😂
And peter’s Voldemort imitation was really good too 😂
LOL thanks!
Can you make Harry Potter theory like videos like how many beasts in wizarding world and Potter family explained ??
It’s a good day when Peter uploads a new video 🙌🏻
Most of the items you've showcased are pretty good options for those fans who cannot afford the officially licensed ones. Awesome alternative to own something special! 👍
Also, for cosplaying purposes and/or other events, these replicas are ideal 😁 Thanks for sharing, Peter!
For sure! Just because someone cannot afford to collect licensed items that does not make them any less a Harry Potter fan or collector. I was SUPER impressed with those wands marked "high quality" on Wish.
@@ThePotterCollector Exactly!
And, yes, those wands seem incredible replicas
I've started saying " well done dragon" because of you! It always brings a smile to my face as well as others around me ☺️
I like how you consider all aspect of the item. Cheap doesn't always mean better. Sometimes it does. I'm just glad there are so many items worldwide for our collections. Just imagine how diverse! I'd love to see a collage of everyone's collections.
The small Marauder’s Map is the same that comes with the Film Wizardry book! 😱 It’s a great replica although smaller
I own that one as well and I almost like it better than the noble collection one just because it fits it the hand better
I love these WiSh videos! Ive been waiting for this video! You should definitely do more of them!
I can't believe you still remembered the old wish vid! thanks! It helps me a lot
Great video! So informative and that Nicholas Flamel's wand looks stunning!
It doesn’t only take time to ship, I mean, on my last 4 orders not a single thing showed up😅 but now I really want that pin & chocolate frog keychain😂
omg yessss. i was looking at old one and was like “we need a part 2”
I'm glad you mentioned ornaments. I actually buy Wish necklaces & keychains for that very thing. The Ravenclaw diadem necklace makes a terrific Christmas tree ornament. Great, informative video, as always.
YAAAAAZZZZ FINALLY 🥺🖤 NOTIF GAAAAANGGGG. Proud of you peter ❤
Yessss been waiting for this! Xx
Notification gang!!! Great video Peter, loving your Wizarding World Orlando videos, rewatching them all, wishing I could go!!❤️
Glad you like them!
@@ThePotterCollector I love them, makes me feel so magical! I wanna go back to Orlando after the pandemic ❤️
The video was really amazing (as always😉) ❤️❤️
Can you make a video on Harry Potter theories fake vs real??
This was actually so useful for me too cause I ordered some Harry Potter stuff off wish too and wasn’t sure what to expect! Thanks Peter! Love your channel.😃
love this video, really cool to see the differences and similarities between these products. i think would always opt for noble collection though.
BTW love your impression of shape, always makes me smile, it's the best 😁
I live for Peter's impressions of character's lines!
Little tip when you order clothing on wish; ALWAYS, AAAALWAAAAYS look at the sizing chart on that particular item.
thank you peter for not shaming those who buy the fake stuff from wish (and also for giving generous credit to the items that maybe aren't great but could still work well for cosplay etc) bcs not everyone can afford the real / authorized ones !!
Hi Pete, new to your channel and I am loving it! I especially love it when you do the characters voices! Greetings from Australia! ❤️😉
One of the most awaited video , was waiting for it ... thanks Peter for this info !!!
Glad you liked it!
Great advice from our collecting king! Thanks, as always!
I understand why fake merchandise is bad but I like that you stay pretty positive and don't immediately say it's trash. :)
7:39 omg his snape impression is AMAZING
usually its hard to beat noble collection but when it comes to Tom Riddle's diary, the cheaper versions from ebay are more realistic.
1st) It has publisher name on the first page (Winstansley)
2nd) Diary from the movies have engraved name like cheap version, while NC has a tag with the name pasted
3rd) NC version even looks more expensive but do recall Tom was poor and its safe to assume his diary was really cheap + with the cheaper item you can smudge it, stain it, put it in an oven and make it more to the true look from the movie while I wouldn't do that on NC version.
Last time I ordered the wands of Hermione,Ginny, Queenie, and Luna's first wand on wish and they look super close to the noble wands. And those wands are very durable actually.
Ahhh!! I literally love these videos
Yay another video!!!! Keep entertaing us Peter !
Been waiting for one of these 👍
Thanks for your "real vs fake" videos! I recently decided to purchase my first Harry Potter wand (I chose professor Snape's wand) and there was no other option than Noble Collection. I saved some money and decided to get the more expensive one in Ollivander's box and I am so glad I bought it. The box is so beautiful and the wand itself is gorgeous. I have to say your videos helped me a lot with my decision, the fake wand would just leave me disappointed. Thanks for your content, I really would like to see more of videos like this 🙂
Glad you started this again
Really surprised with the wands! Specially with Nicholas Flamel’s one! I have bought a few thing in with that were disappointing but also others of really good quality 😊
I've been waiting For this video!
Omg this is the best Chanel I love all your videos so much! I have one question tough what’s you favorite Harry Potter is character? Mine is Severus Snape
Really helpful video! Thank you. Would love to see more like this.
I have that wish sorcerers stone pendant and I love it!
I’ve been patiently waiting for another wish haul video 😭
That timeturner is an amazing value!
My brother got the WISH Ravenclaw diadem but from Amazon, It cost £11 shipped I believe. It was identical to the one that you bought and even the same packaging.
Thank you for this video! It was very informative and it was really fun!
I am pretty sure Wish's designer watch these videos. Wands used to be shorter and now they are longer 🤣 Good stuff as always!
Thanks for another good video Peter. I like what you said about how you can still use the items from Wish like for Cosplay and things like that. Keep the videos coming. Have a Great day ☺️
I would love Hermione items, such as her Yule Ball Earrings and a necklace she wears with red gem stones. Theyre very expensive from Noble, but ridiculously cheap from Wish.
I've gotten the ravenclaw diadem tiara necklace and the chocolate frog card only , Fantastic beast charm bracelet and their cute sticker Pack, Sorting hat keychain, a face mask, platform 9 3/4 necklace, DA necklace, Luna Lovegood spectrespecs earrings, 3 hufflepuff necklaces, hufflepuff cushion case and Newt's scarf . They where all good . And yes all from wish 🥰
Why they so similar tho-
We love you keep up the great content!
Or I will take you to the Chamber Of Secrets 😌😎🐍
Sorry I am Turkish I couldn't find a good joke 🤗
Hi
OMG PEOPLE LİKED MY COMMENT, REPLİED TO ME AND I GOT A HEART!? FROM THE KİNG!? the best day ever!!!!
I love Your videos! Thank you for making them
You are so welcome!
love all your vids
Ordering a ton of stuff for my Potter X-Mas Tree -- Thank you for the Video
19 mins... Yahhh!!.. I love all your videos ❤️
Hi Peter I love this channel
My mommy bought me a ron weasley action figure because of that i decided to watch some harry potter merch here in yt and i saw your youtube channel just wanted to say you are so cool a great potterhead and a youtuber when im watching your videos it brings back the days i really like harry potter when i was younger and my potterhead phase is coming back one of the reasons why i buy the elder wand is you it makes me want to buy hp merches again watching your videos the wand is coming tomorrow so yeah i just wanted to share
I have the Wish Time Turner, it's actually from eBay. It's amazing, and I love it!
For merlins beard... this Nicolas flamel wand from wish is perfect! I just need the link!
I have to admit you have a really good Snape voice
I bought the unauthorized wands from alibaba and it only costs around $8. They have 2 versions of the wands. The one you bought is the cheaper version with cheaply made box, while there’s another version with similar ollivanders box, velvet lining and ribbon inside.
I have known for a long time that the wand is from Noble Collection smooth, especially since I know how to distinguish a fake wand from a Noble Collection wand
I remember the other video, there's actually more available now! I may get an actual keychain if they cost the same! Thank you for video ❤️
I love your beautiful collection and your videos please make a video on voldemort wand
Keep watching... 😄😉
Just realized my Griffindor Tie was fake. Thanks for the vid Peter! I'll try to buy an authentic version now.
I like to safe up for the authentic props, but some there really good!
What’s the difference on the official costumes from the Wizarding world and cinereplica? Is the costumes different in UK from US too?
Thank you for posting such a helpful video on my birthday
Much better and fair comparisons this time. The clothing especially is generally sized WAY smaller than one would expect. Wish definitely is hit or miss and definitely has fake items but again, NOT all non Noble Collection branded brands mean they are fake. I do like that you said "and other authorized dealers" though. There are many brands other than Noble Collection that are authorized and licensed from Warner Brothers to sell quality wands and other HP merch. :) Noble Collection may be generally better quality but it's more of a preference than a true "real" vs "fake". None of the Noble Collection wands are made of real wood, so the argument could be made that they are technically fake too. lol. Both NC and many other brands are made of resin with a metal core the same way. Noble Collection wands are made in China in the same factories as other brands. Many other brands are licensed in some way to probably the same manufacturing factories; they are just distributed differently throughout the world for different markets and price points AND not all of other actual licensed and authorized brands and dealers have a stamp on the wand either so that's not necessarily a definitive sign it's "real" either. Again, it's a matter of preference in many cases. There's not only one true and all powerful definitive official source for "real" vs "fake". lol. Another point to remember too is that although NC has a good reputation for making quality replicas, they don't even produce all the wands from characters that are available either. There is so much more out there of great quality and authenticity too; even if wish's reputation is to sell some actual fake items. Obviously, if you prefer the Noble Collection brand (understandably so) then it's all good, but again, to say any other brand or distributor other than Noble Collection is fake and not official or authentic is just flat out wrong. Even the Noble Collection themselves has changed the color and shading of some of the character's wands on different year releases (Hermione being one) and that didn't make any previous years any less "authentic" or "accurate" did it? Thanks for being a little more researched this time though. :)
On the tie that I have (griffindoor) sans under the griffindoor logo
😍😍
Keep collecting!
I love that you are not throwing wish items from the cliff because they are fake. I've bought countless time from wish and I am satisfied with the items. You just have to think critically when you order. I had no problems and got exactly the items I've paid for.
I think wish is amazing for some stuff to add to your collection until you can upgrade ( if you want ) or it’s honestly perfect for young collectors who can actual wear/ play with the items!
I initially thought I'd be fine purchasing bootlegs but after receiving the items, I decided the authorized ones are better keepsakes simply because the difference in durability and longevity is too big a gap.
I have McGonagle‘s wand from wish and I love it it’s heavy and very well made and it came in a box like the purple one you showed
Would you ever buy a harry potter robe from Hot Topic? And would you please compare to universal ones
how do you polish the coins? I bought the coins in the potter collection sale and don't know how to clean them.
The "fake" Marauders Map isn't fake it is available in an authentic Book: Harry Potter Film Wizardry and I love to have it because I paid 40€ for the Book and there are so many extras inside so the money is definitely worth it for that much you get! And the Noble Collection one costs more than the Book and you just get the Map which is huge😌❤
Love your vids!!!
Not everyone can afford licensed products so its nice to see a serious collector trying to put a good spin on them when you can. I also like that you mention that you get what you pay for as a warning. I I've bought several wish or cheap ebay items (mostly necklaces) to use to make ornaments decorate a Christmas tree. I also like you mention the wish object may be good for cosplay--I'd be afraid to take some of the Nobel collection out and about as I'd be afraid of losing them or damaging them.
Your voldermort impression if on point hahahahahaa
Fact tidbit about the Wish Marauder’s Map: It’s a knockoff of the one from Film Wizardry. Its construction is the same. But Noble Collection also produced a mini map for a boxed DVD set more than a decade ago, which is a bit wider.
And for the accessories, they’re mostly knockoffs of the stuff that were produced for Noble/BioWorld/Universal. Earlier releases of the knockoffs are better in quality than the ones produced later (which are copies of the copies, and so the quality goes does along the line).
As much as the Voldemort wand is a good replica of it those brownish holes go way farther 😮
I would like to give you a little advice, wish sizing for clothing items base their sizes on Asian sizing. For example if you're a M in the USA or UK you most likely will want to get an XL or L. I love this video by the way
Ok but what could be good is buying the fake wands so you have the sculpt and then repainting them and making them your own thing
Like if you like the basic look of the death eater wand you could buy it as a base and then use putties to add/remove detailed and repaint it to look how you want. That's the best use of fake things to me. Sometimes I'll buy fake pokemon cards just to use the art in projects
I love the diadem wherever I see it… It’s beautiful… All the stuff are really good… WISH I had them…
I will say that i've gotten a "fake" time tuner (I got it at an event) and while it did seem high quality the middle part that holds the sand did break after a while so now part of that is gone and while it isn't that big of a deal I feel like its somewhat important :D
The picture of the item showed a pretty pale blush pink and rose resin cast/shaped/sculpted ring with a small gecko (crusted with bright green czs) on the side. I received some kind of a huge pink and white blob (that looked like a pink cinnamon bun) w/a bunch of dull and pale green cz glued on the side.
Fortunately, I was able to get all of my money back from WISH.
Recently discovered your channel and I have a question...what is the difference between the noble collection wands and the ones sold at Universal Studios?
Quality!
My daughter bought her first Hermione Granger wand from Olivander's in Orlando about two months after it opened. The wand is a dulll green. Apparently with some the early batches of Hermione's wand, they had troubles with the pigments they were using. A few months later they corrected these issues. So just wondering if those early green Hermione wands with be worth more money to collectors down the road? Just a thought. 😁
Your the best UA-camr ever
I lived this video, you need to do more like this
The Noble Collection Illuminating wands lights up at a flick of the wrist, and it stays on until you "swish and flick" it again. There is a button on the wand, but it brightens and dims the light. So fake light-up wand, you just press a button. On the Noble Collection light-up wand, you "swish and flick" to turn on and off.
I'm liking this series! Also is so early for me to be laughing this hard. 😂 17:00
Glad you got a kick out of that. Haha! I was a little embarrassed but decided to leave it in.
I loved that part lmao🤣 it made my day
where do you buy the thing of the noble collection??
at the ww shop??
I got a Noble collection Time Turner without a display case from a Halloween Store (blanking on the name at the moment) but it was only $11 and it was official so you can get them cheaper.
