Re: Harry Potter
The listing fee to Ebay must be enormous, so they're unlikely to want to remove the auction.

Re: Harry Potter
Got to Accy Asda about 10.30 this morning with my youngest who wanted the book only to find empty shelves & one of the staff taking down the signs, was just about to turn away & come home when another assistant arrived with a copy of it saying 'I've just found one more' - needless to say he was thrilled to bits - now thats magic

Re: Harry Potter
I haven't read any of them but have enjoyed the films immensely - anything that gets children to enjoy reading books is wonderful.

I'm sure that no-one would buy it intentionally at that price but someone could go on ebay when they come home very drunk after a night out,not notice the price and buy it.They'd be in trouble then,especially if it was a buy-it-now sale rather than just bidding because they'd have already paid with their credit card.They wouldn't get their money back.Doesn't bear thinking about does it?Logging on to your paypal account to discover you've paid £1000 for a Harry Potter book!
My friend once went on ebay whilst drunk and bought a shirt for £15,when it was delivered the shirt was full of holes.When my friend re-read the description it was actually stated on there that the shirt had holes in it but my friend hadn't noticed that in his drunk state! It's amazing the stuff that some people buy when they've had a skinfull without reading the price/description of the item.

There were lots on sale in Wilkinson's this afternoon for £8.95, if anyone is still without a copy.

I don't know about £1000 it looks like a £1 short of a million to me.

But you pay to list it and the amount you pay depends on the price bracket you place it in. Ebay get paid either way.
