22" pointers

[dazzlejoy1038]

I have 2 pointer sticks approx. 22" long that have what looks to be brass points.  They are made of wood and have inlay.  Can anyone give me any information about them?

Swagger sticks, I'd say.  You can Google that, and also search eBay.

I identified these as swagger sticks on the OP's other thread, gave her Google links, eBay links, the whole nine yards.  Guess she didn't like the answer.  What a waste of time.  I really am going to have to stay away from this place.

I know, I just copied and pasted the first line of your reply.

Thank you argon for your quick answer...I'm not sure what Maxine is talking about. I hadn't even seen the reply yet.  

I checked Ebay, and was pleasantly surprised by what I found there...on to Google.

Thanks again!

It was Maxine who gave the answer in your original thread - I just copied her solution:

Hmm... I'm pretty sure these might maybe possibly be from Ollivander's in Diagon Alley. Missing their boxes. Hard to know if they work. If you hold in your hand and wiggle up and down, can you make drawers open, furniture move; that sort of thing?

i think that those are the sharp sticks in the eye...everyone always talks about.

i don't know

[sonomabarn67]

Can't remember if I saw that in a movie or real life while at Hogwarts for classes. If it's real you can actually move furniture about with them;  take/upload a video for your listing.

Too late! It's been solved - by ME. And only BY ME!!! Let none attempt to deprive me of my well-earned laurels. I intend to bask in the glory of MY solution FOREVER.

Nope, ebay is tweaking the "Helpfuls" and we are all at risk. It's like Bit.coi... but for the message boards.. I just unsbscribed to two boards I never suscribed to!
