We all know that the last book on Harry P is released today. Since months ago, some big book stores have been having the pre-order thingy. And the promotion was immense.
Alas, all went down the drain due to the price war. 2Hyper markets decided to sell the book at a much cheaper price. I was going for RM109 at normal book stores but these hyper M decided to sell it as RM69.90.
Thos big players decided to make a strong statement and 4 of the big kahunas decided to Boycott. Meaning , the book is only available today at their book stores and from tomorrow onwards they will ceased to be available at these 4 major book outlets. But pre-ordered copies can still be collected. Hmmm...

Funny way of retaliation rite? I would think the copies at the hyperM are limited, hence poeple will still buy from retailers. So why punish the readers becoz of this price war.
MUAHAHAHA i got mine at RM69.90 but seriously if i got there and it was no longer available, i would still buy at the normal price and most big book stores were giving like 10-20% discount. It won't be at the HyperM's price but ... still it will be slightly cheaper.
Also all planned events related to HP will be cancelled as of Today.. Dang. those kids will be disappointed.
But I am happy Camper :P
