The economics of the wizarding world don’t make sense

There’s a band called Harry and the Potters, and they sing songs about, you guessed it, Lord of the Rings.

Right. So, they sing songs about Harry Potter, and sometimes those songs are about how the economics of the wizarding world don’t make sense.

I live for a good, obscure worldbuilding roast.

My wand only cost seven galleons
That doesn’t seem like much
No, it seems like a bargain

How does Ollivander stay in business?
There’s only so many kids
Who buy wands
There’s only so many kids

Ten galleons for a unicorn hair
Seven galleons for a brand new wand
Ten galleons for a unicorn hair
Minus three to Ollivander
