Harry Potter books sold for $90.000
Some people have so much money they don't know anything useful to do with it...
According to AP, four first edition copies of Harry Potter books inscribed by author J.K. Rowling to her father have been sold for nearly $90,000. The highest bid of $48,000 at Wednesday's auction went for the fourth book in the fantasy series, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire." The books were among seven first edition presentation copies that the author inscribed to her father, Peter J. Rowling, who consigned them to Sotheby's fine books and manuscripts sale. The other three copies did not sell, said Kristin Gelder, a spokeswoman for the auction house. None of the buyers was identified. Well, maybe the deal wasn't so bad after all, at least all prices included Sotheby's commission |
