Try W H Smith. All the Smiths here in Birmingham stock Vanity Fair, so even 
if your local branch is small and non-cosmopolitan (you give no indication 
of whereabouts in the UK you live) they will definitely be able to get it 
for you through their internal distribution system.

And on the subject of that infamous fake poster which has, again, been the 
subject of speculation. Think about it folks: it's *WAY* too early for a 
final poster and there's FAR too much detail on that thing for it to be a 
teaser. It's even too early for a teaser poster, given that the movie's not 
out for another year and there are plenty of blockbusters scheduled between 
now and Christmas (which is when I'd expect the teaser to appear).

The first two movies' teaser posters did not include Harry or anyone else 
(the first was an owl with the letter, the second was Dobby).  I am 
prepared to lay odds that the teaser for PoA will be a "Wanted" poster with 
a barely-recognisable Oldman hiding behind a lot of facial hair. It would 
make sense in terms of what's come before, and in terms of the movie's 
plot. The first was an invitation, the second an unspecified warning. The 
movies are clearly "growing up" and hopefully attracting a slightly 
different audience. A slightly different poster design is called for.
