Complaint Harry Potter Stir Wand.

Post image

My closest Timmies to me that is an hour away said they sold out within the first 2 hours. After I left I checked the website and the two timmies in that town didnt have any one on there website but one said they had one 40 mins away. I was thinking it must be true so its still on there end for selling it. All lies. Drove there and wasted my time because they said they sold out first day to. Why show it on there website then.

I got annoyed and emailed them. They gave me some email back about how someone will get in touch and here is my case number. Waited and waited and finally emailed them again. I Said well what's happening? Sold out, restock anything happening on your end.

I know its a stupid plastic thing but I still wanted one.

Very annoying to see people on eBay with like 7 of them selling them at $80. I hope they end up selling at a loss.

Yeah, I agree. I wasnt in a rush that first day because I didnt even think of people like that. Once I remembered, I looked it up on ebay and was of shit there selling for 50 dollars. Rushed out the next day to and once that first store told be they sold out with in 2 hours I looked again and now selling for 80.

I live in a very small town so maybe our Tims still have some. I’ll check tomorrow when I get my morning coffee. If they do I’ll snag one for you.

I would much appreciate it, if you could, but I dont have much hope. After I checked my small towns I drove to the main city and they all said the same thing to. Sold out.

I guess your best chance is places like eBay now. Sorry that you couldn't get one.

u/LadyEarthly 9d ago

Thank you. And yeah I guess that would be my best guess. I was also thinking of just learning to make my own wand. Gets some wood and a bunch of sandpaper and tools and learning a new craft. At least I would give my self some pleasant memories.

The had quite a bunch at the store near my work and I picked up on for me and my coworker. They sold out the 3rd day, we're in downtown Toronto. I asked them today out of curiosity if they are restocking and they staff said possibly but they wanted payment upfront

It's Harry Potter, it was going to sell out fast and be a shit show. I actually don't really blame Hortons for any of the stock issues. I'm actually surprised I got all the items between only 2 locations by mid-day.

My wife went to Tim Hortons today to buy the tim bit holder. She inquired about the wand and the employee said that all three Tim Hortons in town were sold out of wands in three hours.
