biggrin WELCOME TO OLLIVANDER'S biggrin


Welcome! Please enter! Mr. Ollivander welcomes you. . . (Through spirit of course). If you wish to make a purchase, please consult The List, Wand Information and Prices. Here's a rough sketch of what a wand will look like, (or see Artist Information).

New Announcements!

September 1st, 2005 5:08pm EPT.

Due to guild temporary shutdown, opening of our shop will be post-poned until pre-orders are completed. We are still not accepting any more pre-orders and the deadline for those on the list to meet the requirements is still September 5th. Those who do not shall be reimbursed. Thank you for your understanding. . .


August 29th, 2005 11:16am EPT.

Pre-order list is now closed! All those who are on the list please fill out the questionnaire (to be posted in the thread) and send trade for 500 gold. If either of these requirements are not met before shop opening, you will unfortunately be removed from the pre-order list and reimbursed; (if trade sent. . .) If you have any worries against posting the answers of your quesitonnaire in the thread, please send the questionnaire in a PM to Amunra. Total security insurance is guaranteed.


August 25th, 2005 10:16am EPT.

One pre-order spot left! Anyways, I will be gone for about a week. I might be more, I'm not sure. Leave your request for pre-order and I'll update as soon as possible. The suggestion for brooms has also come to my attention. Sounds like a very good idea! I think I might ask Fluff to be the artist for those. Please don't ask for any yet though, we're still in the brainstorming stage. Well I'll talk to you all later!


August 21st, 2005 3:28pm EPT.

The shop will be open as of September 5th, 2005. We will be taking a list of five pre-orders. These will be the people to get their wands first. The cost will be 1000 gold per wand for non-guild members and 700 to guild members. 200 of this fee will go directly to the guild for future guild upgrades. The rest will go to the artist and for any fee's that might arouse (making banner, signatures, donations to dedicated bumpers in the minishop thread etc.) Please be advised that if you give your name for pre-order that you cannot remove it. The first five pre-orders will receive 200 gold off of their wands. Please be patient as we do not know how long it will take us to complete the orders. Under no circumstance is there to be a request for "Harry's wand or Hermione's wand" or such. The selection of the specifications will be made as said in the first thread, unless you absolutely wish to choose your specifications. But we do ask that you try and be civil. . . After all, this is for fun! If any complaints arise, please contact me. We are still currently looking into new artists and people to make banners. Any persons wishing to post links to other shops or such, must ask me first. (We will have a post for this). These new rules will be posted on the third post. When the shop opens, a list of ten people will be put up at a time. These can expect their wands to be ready within the following two weeks. If we exceed this time period, a gift certificate for 200 gold off will be allowed. Thank you.


August 18th, 2005 9:58am EPT.

Thread is now open for suggestions. If you are an artist, please do not post saying so until we've discussed thoroughly and decided our arrangements. I have no yet found a definate artist. I have consulted with two people; (the two who posted first after me). No agreement has been made yet. Also, I will post my ideas in the first post, and open a poll (will have to wait; 'is having problems') to see what people would most want out of their wands. Please be patient. This process is lengthy, time consuming and difficult to manage. 3nodding Please note that I also have a summer job to go to, and will not be available at all hours.



August 17th, 2005 7:16 EPT.


(If you are an artist, read attentively)

Hello! Please do not post here. I'm opening this thread up because I'm currently searching for artist(s) to help me open up a couple wand shops; (such as Ollivander's). If you are an artist, please PM me. The job will consist of making a basic wand as a base and customizing them as the artist so chooses. It is a requirement that the artist be able to use photoshop or another such program as to create reasonable quality work. As the process becomes more definite, more details will be posted.

Please Note: Any person posting before the shop opens without permission will be blacklisted before opening.

The shop ill be open in a couple weeks. A portion of the procedes will go directly to the guild.A banner will also be needed. So anyone willing to create one PM me as well. 3nodding


Also, I will need someone who will be my 2nd in command. I won't have the chance to dedicate more than an hour or two a day once school starts up. I won't say anymore, but if there are people with advance orders, please PM me. Just note that certain suprises are bound to happen when dealing with magical wands. wink People interested in this position should be dependable!
