 Is it too purple? September 15, 2009

This is a regular tie, not a clip-on. It's about 50 inches long (not 54 inches from the product description) from end to end. The material is soft and silky to the touch and appears well made.
I was most concerned about the color being too purple, as I had read in many reviews. Fortunately, it is not the bright purple I thought it might be. It is nearly burgundy with just a touch too much purple. Lighting affects its appearance. In a shady room, the purple is not noticeable and the tie appears burgundy. In the dark of Halloween, no one will notice. I see the purple best when holding the tie in natural sunlight and looking at it from the proper angle. My kids like the ties (I bought two), and I'm not going to mention the color problem, since they don't seem to have a problem with it.
Nice tie for a Gryffindor October 17, 2009

This is a quality-made very nice tie for a child who wants to dress like a Gryffindor. The color is indeed slightly more purple than maroon, but my son doesn't mind at all, and this is not a cheap, skimpy piece. It's a nice complement to any Harry Potter costume.

This tie completes the costume! My daughter wore it when she was Hermione Granger for Halloween. It's a bit thick and slippery, but my husband was able to finally get it tied properly. Looked great!
