As previously reported, J.K. Rowling has donated a first edition signed copy of 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' to be auctioned on Ebay to raise funds for Peace Hospice. The auction has now ended, with the winning bid £4,500.00 (just under $8,000.00 U.S.). The winner will also receive a personalized letter from JKR.

It is very generous of the winner to buy the signed book for £4,500.
It is very cool to get a letter from JKR.

That's great, it's wonderful to see how much people would pay for a good cause (or a signature from JK)

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
