Oh, goodness me, I was off line during the start of the corrected 
wand order discussion. I didn't think it worked like that! another 
illusion shattered! woe is me! 

I wasn't really interested in the value of the book, more the lack of 
warning, I know you've all said there has been no publicity about it 
but I didn't relaise this extended to the books themselves.

ok, so a really OT question. - what's the difference between a 
'edition' and a 'printing'? I thought that the former was changed 
everytime changes were made to the text and the later merely related 
to any given print run. .... If that is the case I think I'm finally 
getting what you were all talking about a few weeks ago about this 
....

Oh the scales have fallen from my eyes and I do not like what I see
