Now I am usually pretty calm but when it comes to sending book through the mail i get paraniod. What if it gets lost. What if some one steals it? What if it gets damaged? What if...? Get my jist? So no pre-ordering for me thank you very much!!!

felton luva, that won't work. Harry Potter is the number one selling book. The fifth one had to reprint after like 3 days. If you think your going to get a copy on opening day without a reservation, I'm afraid you will be sourly disapointed.

i don't know whether to buy online or to get it myself. Will they send it to you to arrive on the day of release???? The post around my area isn't exactly brillant either... I know online is cheaper but would it be worth it if i got my copy three or four days late? Perhaps it is safer to buy it yourself?

I think this is great, but I already pre-ordered mine from my local Waldenbooks store. They have a great deal. You don't have to give them any money to reserve a copy, you can cancel at any time, and I get 40% off. WOO-HOO!

Well, it would be great to reserve a copy no doubt. Coming out in the shops at midnight with other pooter fans would be quite exciting.

I hate to pay more, but I think I'll reserve mine with an actual bookstore, so I can pick it up. I don't trust the post to get to me on time.

I can't wait. Dunno what time i'll get it, but I think that the stores are going to be getting as many copies of this as they possibly can. They won't want to run out with a couple hundred people outside...

I don't think that i am going to bother to pre-order, i mean when i bought my copy of OOTP the book stores didn't sell out, i would pre-order however if you got your copy like a week early or something.......
*hint, hint, wink, wink!!
hahah
Coolness :)

You know it's better to just buy it from the book store, because I got a gift certificate fro christmas to amazon, so naturally I pre- ordered hp 6 and signed up for next day air, since it said it'd ship on july15th, but as it turns out I think it may be a friday, because it said I wouln't get it until the 18th! So I probably will join the frenzy at the book store the day it comes out, I read my books till they fall out any way.

i don't think i will pre order because it probably would take two days to get to me and does anyone know when it will reach south Asia?

I don't think I'll pre-order it. It's much more fun going to a bookstore at midnight to get the book. Besides, the book might get lost in the mail or something.

Ordering on the web is not such a good idea. Buying it yourself may be better..

I will not be ordering it online. I prefer to spend time in the book shop when it is all dressed up for HP releases.
