Harry Potter Christmas Gifts, by Budget
Christmas shopping for a fan tends to go wrong in the same way. It gets left until the 20th, you end up in a shop holding a mug, and you buy it because there is a crest on the side.
This is the page I would have wanted that afternoon. Twenty pieces, split by what you actually plan to spend, at the prices we charge. No "from $9.99" games.
Under $15
Most people should be shopping here, and it is not the cheap corner of the site. The wax seal kit is the one I put in front of anyone who says "something small, under a tenner". It comes boxed, it has a brass head and a stick of wax, and people assume it cost twenty. The sorting hat ornament is the other reliable one. Tree in December, door handle by February.
$15 to $30
This is where it stops being a stocking filler. The levitating broom pen is the best seller in the shop. It floats without a battery and arrives in a presentation box, which is useful when you have no idea what they already own. The notebook and wax seal set is what people buy when the parcel is going straight to somebody else. Nothing to assemble, nothing to wrap, no chance of arriving in pieces.
$30 to $50
Ready-made gift boxes start around $29 and stop just under $50. Crest on the outside, several pieces inside, presentation handled. If you want the present to look expensive, buy the box. If you want it to look like you thought about it, buy four separate things and let us pack them together on the box builder. Same postage either way, different impression.
The dates that decide it
Price is the easy part. Dates are what people get wrong, because everything here ships from workshops overseas rather than a warehouse down the road. Working back from our 48-hour dispatch and normal transit times:
| Destination | Order by | Typical transit |
|---|---|---|
| United States | 8 December | 7-10 business days |
| Canada / United Kingdom | 2 December | 10-16 business days |
| Europe | 30 November | 10-18 business days |
| Australia / New Zealand | 26 November | 12-20 business days |
Free shipping starts at $79 for parcels under 2 kg. Most four-item boxes land inside that without trying.
Questions we get asked
What is the best Harry Potter Christmas gift under $15?
The $4.99 wax seal kit. It arrives boxed, it has moving parts, and it reads as much more expensive than it is. After that, the $5.99 sorting hat ornament, because it is useful in January as well as December.
When should I order to get it before Christmas?
United States by 8 December, Canada and UK by 2 December, Europe by 30 November, Australia and New Zealand by 26 November. Those assume 48-hour dispatch and normal transit. December post is slower, so order a week earlier if the date is critical.
Do you offer gift wrapping?
A lot of it is boxed already, particularly the gift sets, journal boxes and jewellery boxes. Add a note at checkout and we will leave the price out and put a card in where the packaging allows.
Can I order several pieces and have them boxed together?
Yes. Use the box builder page, pick four to twelve pieces, and we pack them as one parcel. It nearly always costs less to post than four separate orders.
Build a box instead of buying four things
Pick the pieces yourself and we pack them as one parcel.
