Cool, I already have two hardbacks so I don't need them!
I wish I could buy it! But I dont really have the money.

who cares, i want the 7th book
I have the hardback edition already... why is this so important? Hihi, top ten! =)
I already have the hardcover edition, but, this could be really great for present!s

Kool!... even though I already have it in hard-cover. I made it to the top ten! Even though I'm still on my sister's screen name.
Cool! I want one - but I don't think I have money at the moment ...
cool i want one but i doubt i will get it since i have the other one already
i allready have the hardcover book so i dont see myself buing the paperback one
that's so cool, but i like the hardback ones better, they're more durable... even if they are a bit more expencive... but that's a happy bit of news for people who wait sooooooo long for the paperback edition =)
I always get two hardcovers. One to tear into the other to keep nice so, I guess I don't need the paperback version.
Sweet. I've been waiting for this. I have seven copies of each book in hardcover, seven of each in soft cover, both USA and Canadian Versions seperate. I'm on my way to borders!
maybe I'll buy it though I have it in hardcover so whats the point...I like hardcover better anyway
i have the hardcover so i wont be buying paperback...
i have the hard back. but i am seriously considering buying the UK paperback versions of books 1-6. even if the only change in it is the title to book one. I WANT THOSE BOOKS! lol. also i agree with Mrs_Finnegan. HARD COVER ROCKS!!! although i dont think it would matter harback or paperback its still the same. i guess o_o. i have like 20 buck burning a hole in my pocket XD. i wonder how much it would be for the UK paperback versions 1-6 would cost?
hmmm i kinda want them all in paperback to....
all of mine are UK versions...and yeah lol upset336 the UK versions are sooo much cooler!! i have them in hardback, though, and they were kinda expensive.... D= but oh well hardcovers still kooler
ugh who wants papercover books wen u can get the hardcover ones really early?? bring out the 7th book already!!
it's cool to me cause it's just feels like a new harry potter book coming out and now i dont have to take the heavy one with me everywhere yeah i have the regulare hardcover and the deluxe edition but this is still good too and there are good reviews inside it so that's a plus i went and bought it this morning so harry potter is the best ever and i can't wait for the 7th book and the rest of the hp movies harry potter all the way.
why is it sooo cheapp...i could have saved myself like 50 dollars or something...but then i wouldn't have know about like anything and would have been out of the loop...and wouldn't have found out dumbledore died from the book....probably from someone's big mouth...
$9.99? I remember when it was 30 bucks...
yeah that british editions are awesome too i have the chamber of secrets and the half blood prince of the british and since i am a huge harry potter fan i buy anything hp and i went and bought the paperback today and i also have the us hardcover hbp and the deluxe hbp harry potter all the way.
I need to grab a copy of that. I lent mine to someone.
I just went up to the supermarket just now to go and get it when I read about this. It was only $8.63.
Finally! Now I can carry HBP in my purse without it weighing about 15 pounds! YAY!!! lol. (Hi to DA) Savvy?
cool!!!!! i'v been waiting for this cuz i have all the other books in paperback and now i can add the 6th book!!!! and then after that we all just have to wait until the 7th book!!!!!!!! yay!!!!!
Yet again I am disgusted by mugglenets lack of noticing us you do know that we are a country too and we have tons of Harry Potter fans to and we are the United States neigbor we couldnt be that hard to miss since we are the second biggest country I am disgusted Mugglenet should get a Canadian staff member I am really thinking about switching fan sites!
THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Now I can go buy a copy of HBP. And it only costs $6.99 here! This is wicked!
wow thats just awesome=] well i have a hardcover but parts of the book keep falling out (lol) because i read it so much=]]] thats funny, maybe ill get a paperback just cuz it wont break like mine did=]
i wish i wasn't broke! *pout*
Its cheaper at TARGET!!!
yeah its only $6.00 at Target Lol =] I already have two hardcovers so I don't need a paperback though.
what are you talking about you dont need another copy of hbp for only 10 or 5 bucks soccerluver?!?!?!!?!? you can never have enough hp!=0 no, jk i understand. i got mine at costco today for 6.00.
It's been out in the UK for ages and I know someone who refused to buy the hardback but still managed to keep the book from being spoiled. When it was released you could buy it for about £2.50. When the hardback came out you could get it for about £9.00.
o man there is no news anymore. all the spoilers are dried up
Can't wait to get the paper back copy!!!
Got mine this morning. Now I can retire my hardcover.
yeah i bought the hbp paperback this morning and now whenever i go somewhere i dont have to bring my hardcover hbp with i love them both the hardcover and the paperback harry potter is the best book series ever.
It's only $5.84 at Walmart, plus 97cent shipping if you buy it online.
yay! another reason to celebrate the harry potter phenomenon!!!
Who cares? Why is it always BIG news when something happens in the US? I hate that! It's like no-one else in the world matters at all! Everything has to be American or it is not reported! If it's another country, it gets a little add on note if it's lucky! This really boils my blood.
You know, I don't think I can bear to watch another Harry book snap to pieces. I may just stick with the hardcover, but even that one's mutilated!
It's my birkyday today and so I got myself a paperback copy of HBP! It's so pretty! :P
I Went and bought it today!!!!!!! Finally...I have all 6 in paper back and Looking forward to the Seventh with great anticipation
wootwoot chizzle whizzle im off to by it narnes and obles here i come....
lets face it. you are a total bumsucker if you have waited this long to buy HBP.
Why is everyone acting like its such a big surprise??? Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince has been out in paper-back in Austrlia for months! ITS JUST ANOTHER HP BOOK IN ANOTHER FORM!!!! ITS NOT LIKE FRIGGIN' BOOK 7 HAS BEEN RELEASED!!!!! Get a life guys! It's so pathetic, now, I wonder why it's only just being released in America. I was in Koh Samui, Thailand last week and they had HBP in paper-back there too. Poor inocent pathetic Americans, I raise my hat to you all. Just kidding, you yanks are okay, really.
