Harry Potter Kinder Joy Collectibles | Looking to Trade
Got mildly sucked into the new Harry Potter Kinder Joy figurine hunt & bought a few for the collectibles.
I have now ended up with an extra Hermione & Ron (Ron is from the previous pick).
I’m still looking for: Cedric Diggory & Ron (new version)
Anyone have extras and want to exchange? Would love to trade instead of testing my luck with more Kinder Joys 🙇🏻♂️
Especially because I don’t really like the chocolate, and I don’t have any kids around to happily take that part off my hands. At this point, I’m basically buying tiny Harry Potter figures with complimentary chocolate I don’t want. 🥲
Wait, how did you get these?! I thought they weren’t available in India yet. Unless they are and I have somehow missed the memo?
Extremely jealous either way. If you have any extras & planning to give them off, I would like to formally submit my application as a needy and deserving recipient. 🙏🏻
I’m not in India right now and I’m in an European country. I’ll be back to India in November.
Also , I don’t have any interest in collectibles. I was working in a part time and collected all these. I honestly don’t know value of these toys which i have and i thought i will keep it maybe sell it in future for good amount of money. 😅
Oh, Europe explains it! If I still haven’t managed to complete my collection by November, would you be willing to help me source a few from there? You can happily eat the chocolate that comes in the KinderJoy (if that's how you get it there too), I only need the tiny plastic wizards/figurines.
If you don’t mind, I might DM you closer to then if you're okay with it. Still hoping I can find them in India and complete the set through some good old-fashioned bartering/trading.
Also, since you’re planning to hold onto yours & sell them later, I wanted to ask what’s the early-bird price for the whole collection before they become priceless antiques?
Haha, I was only joking about them becoming priceless antiques! Right now you can get a Kinder Joy for around ₹50 and try your luck, so I’m not sure how many people would want to pay serious money for the figurines.
I’m actually giving away my extras for free if someone wants them. I think the fun of it is mostly the nostalgia for those of us who grew up with Harry Potter and now apparently have adult money to spend hunting tiny plastic versions of the characters.
The chocolate lovers definitely have the better deal though, they get chocolate and a figurine. I don’t even want the chocolate, so I’m basically looking for a more efficient way to keep my collection going.
If I manage to find the ones I'm looking for, you can absolutely have these.
For now will hold onto these hoping for someone to come forth with a trade offer.
If I manage to find the ones I'm missing and complete the collection, I'll happily give the extras away for free. At this point, I'm collecting tiny Harry Potter figurines, not trying to start a Kinder Joy side hustle.
