- "But Black couldn't have bought a Firebolt! He's on the run! The whole country's on the lookout for him! How could he just walk into Quality Quidditch Supplies and buy a broomstick?"
- — Mention of Quality Quidditch Supplies[src]
Quality Quidditch Supplies is a store in North Side, Diagon Alley. It stocks many Quidditch related items such as, Quaffles, Bludgers, broomsticks, and a Quidditch Starter Kit.[1]
This is where Harry Potter saw his first broomstick, the Nimbus 2000, and later the Nimbus 2001 and the Firebolt. It is possible that Harry bought Ron his Quidditch keeping gloves and Broom Compass from this store.
History
Quality Quidditch Supplies also once displayed a full set of Chudley Cannons robes in the front window.[2]
Quality Quidditch Supplies was Harry Potter’s favorite shop in Diagon Alley. He visited it often when he stayed for three weeks at the Leaky Cauldron, since that summer the new Firebolt racing broom had been introduced and the shop had one on display. However, he did not like the idea of the "price on demand" and realised that he already had a perfectly acceptable Nimbus 2000.
At Christmas that year, he received a Firebolt anonymously from whom he later discovered to be his godfather, Sirius Black. (Sirius considered this thirteen years of birthday and Christmas presents to Harry). Quality Quidditch Supplies also once displayed a full set of Chudley Cannons robes in the front window.
