A Harry Potter-mad student who forked out £3,000 on wands has hit back at trolls who brand his collection a 'waste of money' - and vows to buy at least 40 more. Connor Cundale has splashed the cash on his 80-strong wand collection over 12 years, but claims he has 40 more to go before completing the set.
The 20-year-old admits that trolls, and even some pals, have questioned why he's spent so much on them, but Connor says the magical collection brings him 'happiness' and has vowed to keep them forever. Since sharing his treasure trove on TikTok, the advertising student has impressed fellow wizard enthusiasts, while drawing derision from trolls who question why a 20-year-old would buy 'toys'.
But Connor maintains that the wands aren't toys and that they carry sentimental value for him as he grew up watching Harry Potter's adventures. Connor, from Buckhurst Hill, Essex, said: "I have 80 wands overall, I started collecting them in 2010.
