    Scholastic has recently learned that some individuals have received copies of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows through the mail , beginning on Tuesday, July 17th, as a result of a breach of the on-sale agreement by the distributor, Levy Home Entertainment, and shipments made by DeepDiscount.com, a customer of that distributor. We are taking immediate legal action against DeepDiscount.com and Levy Home Entertainment. The number of copies shipped is around one one-hundredth of one percent of the total U.S. copies to go on sale at 12:01 am on July 21st.

    We are also making a direct appeal to the Harry Potter fans who bought their books from DeepDiscount.com and may receive copies early requesting that they keep the packages hidden until midnight on July 21st.

    The Star's excuse was that they were just covering the story on the leak like everyone else.... Except everyone else reported on the leak without revealing anything <_<

    lol, omg, just read in the news that some1 leaked out the harry potter book, and the user of photobucket is seriously goin to get in trouble, cause he scanned each page and teh investigators found fingerprints on the pages! seriously
    so beware, just buy it, instead of dling it, could get u in trouble

    Or some of the pages could be fake and you would be wasting your time reading it. I think that's also a reason not to Dl it... -rolleyes

    and major bookstores in malaysia have announced that HP7 will not be on sale during the launching day and all activities pertaining it will be canceled as well...reportedly there are cheap sales in other local stores as cheap as MYR69.90 perbook....damn i got it for MYR 90++ and only given a fuking mug and paperbag as freebies...

    funny thing is i saw them heavily promoting the book and even countdown for the book a few days earlier...i guess this sweeps away my excitement...
