That is one beautiful book bought by someone with WAY too much money

Those are beautiful pics of the book and the illustrations. And what a great charity the $$ is going to. Amazon is based here in Seattle.....wonder if they will have it displayed at their headquarters....probably not...that baby is probably locked up in safe with a dozen armed security guards.

Wow, talk about a collectible. I wonder if there's anything preventing her from releasing it normally later? I feel like my HP collection will be incomplete without it!!!

 

[tomandshell]

She could make a lot more than four million dollars for charity if she would release it to the public for sale...

That's really cool, I'd be surprised if they didn't have mass produced version of this. It'd be great if it came in the same sort of presentation.

Okay then... to each their own....

Damn Sotheby's for not notifying me of this auction,for this book would have certainly been in my private collection!

 

[bumblebee]

[MadCow]

Damn! For $4,000,000 it should have been written in her own blood...

Amazon.com got it and it looks like they'll be showing it off.

Wow....I gotta get off of my ass and finish my novels.

I love how intricate the book itself is....not worth $4,000,000 but definitely a one of a kind thing to own

Or a one of a seven thing to own.

I heard the others went to industry "higher ups" wonder how long until one of them decides they want the $ more than the book. Those pages look nice.. I wonder how many times she screwed up at the bottom of a page and had to redo it... that would suck.

 

[King Darkness]

I bid $3,999,999.00. Lost it by one dollar

 

[galactiboy]

Damn King, that sucks... at least you won the Darkness cast, which is actually cooler IMO.

I'm sorry, bro. Better luck next time. If I had been there, just know that I would have forked over 100 pennies for you.
