Good one! I'd love to see Petunia vs Portrait too!

Another possibility for the locket is that Mundungus has sold it,
Harry spends a lot of time and effort tracking it down, and in the end
discovers that R.A.B. had indeed disarmed it.

As for Petunia and the locket, well, Mundungus certainly knows the way
to Privet Drive doesn't he? Can you imagine Vernon buying it off him
though?
