| | |  Six thousand pirated Potters seized
Following the arrest of a man in New Delhi, India, 28,000 pirated books were seized, with just under a quarter of them being Harry Potter. The raid happened in a factory in Pandav Nagar area, where illegal copies of novels, including the 6,600 Potters, were printed. Quote:
He used to sell the pirated books at very low prices at the traffic signals and to foot path vendors, they said.

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
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. |

I bought a pirated book once, by accident ofcourse. it was supposedly 'Gossip Girl', hehehe, but the bits where she's on the internet site were all in some odd language, or no language at all.. Anyway... The moral of my story is.. DON'T BY PIRATED BOOKS!
