Preorder Harry Potter today
Ignore the plug, and go buy Harry Potter from Amazon.com. They will get it to your door on the release date. Who else can do that?
I already put in an order for mine!
They were right to wonder. When I visited the three online sites to compare offers, I realized that delivery time varies. Amazon.com promised the most. “Select Standard Shipping and order by July 11 for guaranteed delivery on the release date of Saturday, July 16, 2005, or we will refund the cost of your book,” the site said.
At Scholastic.com, where the home page featured a clock to count down the days, hours, minutes and seconds to the book’s release, the fine print said, “Your order will be shipped as soon as it is available.” And at BN.com, I read, “PLEASE NOTE: We expect to deliver this item on or just after the release date of July 16, 2005.”
In case you have any doubts about the book, here’s what Nazi Pope Ratzinger has to say about it:
Cardinal Joseph Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI, also blasted the boy wizard two years ago as “a product of evil,'’ contending that the books can lead to “a subversion of Christianity in the inward being.'’ (src)
