Leopold Babcocke also sells a rarer broom called the 'Sky Scythe Broom', which is priced at a hefty 5,000 galleons. He can be found outside of Hogsmeade Station on the world map.
This means it is possible to get different brooms from other vendors scattered about the world of Hogwarts Legacy. Luckily, if you find yourself a few galleons short of a broomstick, with the transmog system, you can sell all of your old gear and still use their appearance for your character.
