What sort of feather is in it?
Phoenix is pretty effective I hear. Of course all this talk is no good if the wand is not matched to it's owner.

wizard wands for sale?
I know that this might not be the forum for it, and i am very aware that there are many other more experienced woodies in this forum, but based on feedback (here and in real life) from the wand that i have done, i am wondering if any people would be interested in buying a wand like it or made to order. Just putting it out there as i am looking to start making toys and other things to sell at the local markets. thanks for your interest.

If you made a little "wizard and witches" kit up I reckon they'd probably sell like hot cakes!
A kit might contain, the wand, a witches hat and a cape.....................................................................

but the big question would be - what to charge?

Prob no more than $30~40.
The profit margin may not be real high... but it may help attract customers to your other products.....................................................................

thanks for the suggestions - i was thinking around $30 also. I could do definitely do the cape and hat combination as well, perhaps charging $50 for the lot.

We bought one in NZ from a turner who has a workshop/shop at the Christchurch craft markets and I think we paid about $20-$30 for it.
He didn't have any Phoenix feathers either...
