BBC News is reporting that the first complete signed set of Potter books is now up for auction to benefit a charity named Books Abroad: All of the books have been signed by the author JK Rowling and are so valuable that they are being kept in an Aberdeenshire police station. They will be auctioned off on eBay in aid of local charity Books Abroad which supplies books to children in 80 countries worldwide. The Potter books are expected to raise at least £20,000. Thanks to everyone who e-mailed with the tip!
