Members Jonny Five Posted July 14, 2005 Members Posted July 14, 2005 ... Cause two of my coworkers got advance copies of Harry Potter. Some bookstore accidentally put them out early, and they just bought 'em. It's so weird how much of a phenomena (sp?) this book is.
Members Jonny Five Posted July 14, 2005 Author Members Posted July 14, 2005 Originally posted by fretless I would ebay it asap The crew actually asked 'em if they would, but they want to read it first.

Members Bonoman Posted July 14, 2005 Members Posted July 14, 2005 I love Harry Potter! I can't wait until Friday night so that I can grab my copy, go home, and stay up all night reading it!

Members the_big_geez Posted July 15, 2005 Members Posted July 15, 2005 Before anyone else gets distracted by the 'new screw' faux pas in this thread, please consider that the term 'screw' is a euphemism for prison guards amongst the incarcearted, and that a 'screw' is also a nautical term for what the landlubbers think of as a propellor. That said, my first inclination was to think that someone got a hot new secretary... Oh, and I had to look very closely to find the hole in her head --well, at least the one that was out of the ordinary...
Members Dark Slide Posted July 15, 2005 Members Posted July 15, 2005 Yeah, sell it on Ebay... and then watch Rowling bury you with her lawyers. There have been a couple of leaks, and people were ordered by a court not to sell or even READ the book. I'd be interested to see exactly what would happen to your co-workers if they did try to sell it.... but my gut tells me that they would regret it.
Members Rowka Posted July 15, 2005 Members Posted July 15, 2005 Well, in 15.5 hours, the book will be worth just less than the cover price.
