| | Czech Deathly Hallows to be delayed in supermarkets
The Czech translation of the final Harry Potter novel will be arriving in bookstores soon, but will not be for sale in supermarkets for a month. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will go on sale on January 31st in bookstores, but supermarkets will have to wait until March 1st.
This is due to the publisher, Albatros, favouring traditional bookstores to supermarkets. Supermarkets usually sell the books at lower prices, resulting in losses for bookstores. This was seen in the U.K, where Asda lost around 2 million pounds.

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |

Mmm, that's a great company move...But, I'd want to wring their necks if I lived in Brazil...Although, I usually get mine at B&N anyway...
Meeeh. X]

That's because ASDA can afford to stock a product which generates them loss. This is a smart move, imo.
