While I do not recommend purchasing unauthorized products, it is up to you to decide whether or not to purchase something from Wish.

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 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. :)

I can't believe you still remembered the old wish vid! thanks! It helps me a lot
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.
Great video! So informative and that Nicholas Flamel's wand looks stunning!
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.😃

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 😊
Yay another video!!!! Keep entertaing us Peter !
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 🙂

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
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.
I understand why fake merchandise is bad but I like that you stay pretty positive and don't immediately say it's trash. :)
I am pretty sure Wish's designer watch these videos. Wands used to be shorter and now they are longer 🤣 Good stuff as always!
Ordering a ton of stuff for my Potter X-Mas Tree -- Thank you for the Video
For merlins beard... this Nicolas flamel wand from wish is perfect! I just need the link!
Little tip when you order clothing on wish; ALWAYS, AAAALWAAAAYS look at the sizing chart on that particular item.
😍😍 Keep collecting!

19 mins... Yahhh!!.. I love all your videos ❤️
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. :)
love all your vids
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.
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
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 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.
Just realized my Griffindor Tie was fake. Thanks for the vid Peter! I'll try to buy an authentic version now.
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
8:02 I actually got a Diadem necklace from wish and uhm....it already came with a broken lace,so i couldn't even use that. When i found a lace, I wore it every day for a week, and on the 7th day the dangling gems broke off the necklace.. I never knew how it happened, and i couldn't even glue it back.i'm stil using it, though it does not feel that magical as it had
I love the diadem wherever I see it… It’s beautiful… All the stuff are really good… WISH I had them…
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).
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.
Love your vids!!!
I have to admit you have a really good Snape voice
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. 😁
Thank you for posting such a helpful video on my birthday
I lived this video, you need to do more like this
Can you make a video about where you store all of this stuff?
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 never really collected or wanted to collect wands (I purchased my first 2 at Universal - Dumbledore & Newt much later). That was until I saw the Series 3 with the stands. The stands made them so desirable. Are the Wish wands the same quality as those? The Walmart Noble wands definitely are not as nice as Noble Collection at Universal but the stands are everything! 💙🦅
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!
Thats really cool!
I like your shirt the potter collector keep collecting I'm biggest fan this is magic keep collecting I'm in joy your unboxing video
how do you polish the coins? I bought the coins in the potter collection sale and don't know how to clean them.
On wish I ordered the blood pact necklace and it was a really nice quality necklace I was pleasantly surprised
I have a chocolate frog keychain I purchased in Orlando and honestly that keychain was completely spot on. I will say that the real one smells like chocolate though and it’s nice.
Omg your awesome videos Peter make me your die heart fan forever hp is not just a obsession for us it's our life's happiness⚡♥️
Its crazy how close they can get with some things but really bad with other things. I do like from the cos play aspect though as I wouldn't want to use my expensive replicas incase they were damaged or lost!
