      @annabelcaye 3 роки тому +6

      Merchandise plays a big part- you see merchandise everywhere. When you see a Harry Potter shirt or something at every clothes store you go to, you remember the books and movies and the more you see the merchandise the more you keep it in your mind and the series stays alive. Which is why they have this store, because merchandise is what keeps the franchise going

    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.

      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! 😂

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...

    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.

      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.

    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!
