wow that's a lot of money. Yah I had hardcover 1st editions for everyone, but bu someway or anther I broke them. But they were American so I figured they wouldn't bring in very much. But also doesn't the fact that their were mistakes make it worth more than your garden variety British 1st edition? :ermsmile:

If they have mistakes it makes them far more valuable.

My OotP has at least one spelling error.

Well I have first editions of all five books

But they're all messed up from over-reading lol.

That's wicked. Mine's in pretty good condition apart from some bent pages.
