Hogwarts letter and shopping

Albus Dumbledore's office

————————

Albus Dumbledore sat at his desk, watching the enchanted quill write out the Hogwarts letters and hoping beyond hope that this would be the year that they finally found Harry Potter. All mail sent to him went unopened, unless it was from his sister Rose, and any tracked envelopes were returned with a howler warning not to send one again. Dumbledore's heart fell as the quill passed 'p' and stopped moving. Either Harry was at another school already or... he didn't want to think about that. Suddenly the quill started to move once more. It wrote four names Dumbledore never expected to see on a Hogwarts letter, but he was even more surprised when he saw the first name appear;

Emrys-Le Fay-Pendragon-Slytherin, Harry

Could this be the missing Potter child? Or was it coincidence that the heir to four of the seven most famous and powerful families in the wizarding world shared a name to the missing boy. His shock at seeing the names, however, intensified when he saw the destination of the letter.

Camelot

Albus Dumbledore, Headmaster of Hogwarts, Chief warlock of the wizengamot, supreme mugwump of the ICW did what he had only done once before in his entire life. He fainted.

AN: Today isn't Harry's birthday, even though the letter is coming. I've got something special planned for that particular day.

Harry was eating his breakfast (crumpets) when he heard tapping at the window. A quick glance showed him that it was not his sister's handwriting so it must be the Hogwarts letter. He opened the window and relieved the bird of its burden before sending it back to Hogwarts. Opening the letter, his eyes scanned the pages enclosed (AN: I'm not going to bore you with the contents of the letter, we all know what's on it anyway) and he realised he had to go shopping. He finished his breakfast, strode to his bedroom and dressed himself appropriately for the day. After he had visited Diagon Alley, he would wander round Muggle London before apparating back to his main home, Camelot. When he had got dressed, he turned on the spot and apparated to the apparition point in Diagon Alley before making his way to Madame Malkins. He approached the shop assistant and asked for a set of school robes for Hogwarts. While he waited a particularly loud family of redheads bustled into the shop. Harry ignored them, but found them all incredibly annoying and was relieved when the shop assistant had finished with him so he could escape their presence. After getting brewing equipment and writing implements it was time to get a wand. Merlin's staff was good, but currently it only gave him access to about 70% of his magic. This was because Harry needed a wand to fuse with the staff and the only thing that would do that was a custom made wand. Heading down knockturn alley, he passed some dubious looking shops until he stopped at a cleaner, brighter shop in a patch of sunlight. The sign read:

Vickery's wandcrafters est 1066 A.D.

Harry entered the shop and rung the bell on the desk. A man came out from the back of the shop and gave Harry a grin.

"Back again Harry? Here for a wand, staff, both? Now you are of legal age I can make what you have desired since you first walked into my shop a year ago. Follow me!"

When he finished speaking he went through a door labelled 'crafting room' and Harry followed.

"Now Harry. Extend your magic and find the woods and cores that feel right for you."

Harry extended his magic and sensed 6 woods and 5 cores. He went back to Mr. Vickery and gave him the items he had selected.They were:
