Get Your Harry Potter Fix Now

The 4 major bookstores have decided to stop acting like whiny crybabies.

It baffles me to see how they overreacted. The hypermarkets obviously have limited stock (it’s a loss leader, after all), and sales will hardly be affected because the demand for Harry’s last adventure is greater than the second coming of Jesus.

Did they think that anyone would believe for a moment that the “boycott” would be permanent? Harry’s death* is a goldmine for book retailers. I doubt they’d have the tenacity to lose out on all that moolah.

And saying “fuck you” to your loyal customers by bailing on them the day before the book’s highly anticipated release to throw a petty tantrum is not quite Business 101.

Nice to know they’ve finally taken off their bibs and got back on their feet.

*At least that’s what I hope happens. Any more Harry Potter and I will have to move to Mars.
