Online Bookseller Mails Out 'Deathly Hallows' Early - Gets Sued

As the Harry Potter sale date approaches, there are more and more discussions taking place both online and off. But nobody expected to get their book early. But that's what happened to a guy named Will Collier. His copy was on his doorstep more than four days early. So what does he do about it? He sells it on ebay of course!
Read his article: I was an eBay Voldemort.

Later, I was reading news headlines and I came across: Early Shipping of 'Harry Potter' Brings Lawsuit.

Looks like things are heating up! Do I dare mention the publisher-hacked digital copy that even Newsweek tried to download?

I have managed to steer clear of spoilers so far. I'll be attending the pre-release party tomorrow night and from that point I'll be reading and avoiding the internet as much as possible until I'm finished the book. ;)

PS- None of the articles I've linked to in this post contain spoilers.
