Just a note to say: I'll always give my honest opinion and reviews here, regardless of who has made something. I review subscription boxes, it's part of the job to be honest and discuss things pragmatically. Also just because a lot of the items in this box didn't totally rock my socks, doesn't reflect on my thoughts on Peter. He's great, and you won't find a better Harry Potter Book / authentic signature expert than him, genuinely. I also admire the effort that goes into designing these boxes, it's hard work I'll never deny that. I understand that TWT sent out an email and social posts about the pen but my comment still stands, a pen shouldn't be confusing on how it functions, and it was (which is a shame because it looked like a freakin' GRYFFINDOR SWORD!) Peace and love.

How fun was that?! Thank you for opening The Keep Collecting Box! 💚 I'll be sure that an owl is sent with the headmaster pin and a new pen for you. Every lion should own that pen. As you probably know by now, the sword pen cap simply pulls off. No twisting is required. Well, twisting is required to replace the ink cartridge, but that little piece shouldn't have lodged itself in the cap. 🙁 The hole in the cap is actually there for safety. If a child were to be choking on the cap, the hole allows them to breathe. Whoever came up with that is a genius. I am glad that you loved the Baoding balls! They are indeed made of metal and once you get the hang of them, they are relaxing... but they take "patience". 😉 The pass is something found in the wizard schools here. Mr. F found out about them and asked the headmaster if teachers could begin to use them. The pass has prevented a lot of unnecessary detentions since then. As we know, the caretaker doesn't trust students. The house robe greeting cards are still one of my favorite items in the box. I am glad you enjoyed them! Keep Collecting!

Also, usually you don't unscrew that much, in case of a swivel pen or twist cap. It makes sense to just first pull. But I get that Cherry is a bit more flustered and hasty than you or me, unboxing everything slowly at home. I do think it's fixable, just try to screw it back on, with all its innards, and then pull the cap off when it's securely screwed on again. I just personally feel like that pen is a great item, so I'm kinda bummed Cherry didn't get to write with it.

@tiffanysnyder7572 жыл бұрын
I also tried to pull off the cap first, but there are a lot if opens in subscription boxes that do twist pens so i understand people being confused. The hole in the tip is also misleading since it could lead to people thinking the tip twists out of it. Not everyone is familiar with the capped pens that have a hole at the tip of the cap (which is there to allow air to pass in the event the cap accidentally gets swallowed to prevent full air obstruction)
@chaysecrossley1892 жыл бұрын
Not all pens come with lids that just pop off by pulling, some are twisted to reveal the pen. Which I believe is what Cherry was suggesting. It wasn’t clear, it was a design flaw. If a company has to send out socials about an item before and after it’s released says a lot. That’s not on Peter though, all this feed back from us all, including Cherry, it’s just a lesson learned for next time.

While i do agree with Cherry that having the hole gave the impression that it would be a twist pen...just so everyone knows...if there is a hole in the end of the cap of a pen, it is most likely put there as a safety precaution against it being a choking hazard.

The pin you didn't get is just peter dressed as Dumbledore which, I do like Peter and the potter collector channel, I felt was a little narcissistic.

I watch the potter collector channel sometimes and enjoy a lot of his content, but for me this box was a bit of a miss and I was glad I didn’t order it. The gloves were a good concept, but looked massive and probably could have been better executed. I like the design of the pen but as you say, it’s a pen and shouldn’t be that hard to figure out. The coin box looked great. The paper replicas were ok - I did find the use of the term school board jarring, as there certainly isn’t a school board for Hogwarts. Baoding balls looked nice, but not sure if I would use them, and hard to determine how good they would be as baoding balls without holding them. I’ve seen another video with both pins - not really to my taste, either of them. Overall - ok, not great.

What I didn't like the most about this box was the Americanisms: 'Hall pass', 'schedule', 'school board' the British terms for these things are used in the books and films so no excuse really. I pointed this out to Peter and his response was that he just didn't think about it.

I’m Canadian so not applicable to me, but I do know that in the USA the books were actually released with a special version - ex, the title of book 1 is Harry Potter and the sorcerers stone. So it is possible that some of the American terms instead of British ones are used in the books as well, though I doubt school board is, schedule might be

This bothered me so much. I could maybe understand someone new to HP assume things like this, but now it just looks like he didn't do any research or "fact-checking." A rookie mistake from someone who I thought should knows this stuff.

Also, did you end up having a workable pen and get the headmaster pin?

@@beth_m The box was $89.98 USD (including shipping.) I did receive Peters headmaster pin. The sword pen worked for me. The tip came off pretty easy. It’s $25 more than the regular bi-monthly subscription of $64.98 (including shipping.) It was way overpriced in my opinion. I wish a unique wand was included in this box instead of the gloves. I’m not a pin collector and this box had 2. I was very disappointed in this “special” collectors box.

I like the idea of this box. Maybe the hall pass could come from the American magical school. I think Peter did a great attempt I would just display the pen

Late to the party, but I appreciate the honesty on opening the box. Some of the items aren't really going to be everyone's cup of tea, and there's nothing wrong with not loving everything in the box. I mean, just based off my first impressions of the items, many of them are nice, but not particularly useful for everyone, like the award and the paper replicas, some are confusing without explanation (the pen and the bludgers), and some just don't particularly read Harry Potter on their own, like the crest pin (since it's more of an original design) and the gloves (if you remove the tag, there's nothing that reads as 'dragon hide' on their own). Overall, I personally only liked 3-4 items out of the 10 provided, and there's nothing wrong with that.

I'm going to assume the service award being put with Slytherin is supposed to be a nod towards Tom Riddles service award. If boxes ever go back to doing the School Year boxes, I think a cute one for Year 2 would be his service award with the slugs Ron kept puking up on it.

The pen is what people have gotten confused over the most, if I remember from another video it was a pull top pen, it was a bad design on his part to not make it a swivel top. In my opinion I was not a fan of the potter collector's box and I'm glad I didn't spend money on it but I did like the paper products the most.

One of my biggest issues with this box was except for a few items I couldn’t tell what each item represented. I had no idea what the hufflepuff items were until I read they cheat sheet and they didn’t hit the mark for representing hufflepuff for me. My Hufflepuff daughter felt the same. Overall I liked the box but didn’t feel I’d have been disappointed if I hadn’t bought it. My friend who saw the box loves it though so maybe I’m just never happy.
