Jun 16, 2014 at 8:28 | comment | added | Karthik T | @Richard If this answer is right, only JKR can confirm :P . Also, if thats the case, its the question, rather than the answer that is off topic, since its more about real world conventions | |
Jun 15, 2014 at 15:49 | comment | added | Valorum | @karthikt - I remain convinced that this is a bad answer. It's almost certainly right but it's also totally opinion-based. | |
Jun 15, 2014 at 15:47 | comment | added | Karthik T | @Richard My guess would be that this has nothing to do with magic or harry potter. Replace Magic with money and we have the idea of making your own presents instead of just buying them to show you care. | |

Jun 12, 2014 at 13:31 | comment | added | Valorum | @Sulthan - I disagree. While you and I may think it's clear, without a canon reference it's mere supposition. | |
Jun 12, 2014 at 13:22 | comment | added | krillgar | Thanks @Sulthan. I was going to have to go take a look in the book for anything else when I got home, but I never remembered it being any further explained. As I said in my answer, it's effortless wand waving vs. effort and (minor) sacrifice. | |
Jun 12, 2014 at 13:15 | comment | added | Sulthan | @Richard I think the understanding is pretty clear from the quote in the question. | |
Jun 12, 2014 at 10:46 | comment | added | Valorum | You're not wrong, but can you back this up with anything other than your own opinion? | |
