Disappointing

Although I had given the first HP book to a nephew the year it was published, I waited to purchase and read the books until (1) my son was old enough and (2) the series was finished and I could get matching hard copies. A friend ordered this for me through her library connections. It took ages to arrive; forunately for me, I had no idea the box was supposed to be wooden, so I was not initially disappointed by that. However, now that we've begun reading them (my son could easily read them himself but I still read to him at bedtime, and it's really fun to discover Harry's world along with him), I was stunned and insulted to discover that the prose had been tampered with, dumbed down and 'Americanized' for stupid Yanks. I am an American but I know what a packet of crisps is, and when 'chips' has been substituted for 'crisps,' among other things. So now, having spent over $100 for this set, I am going to have to spend more to get the REAL thing. How disappointing. What on earth were the people at Scholastic thinking?! Moreover, why did JK Rowling allow them to do this? I cannot fathom any reason why perfectly ordinary English should have to be changed. Or is it that we really are that stupid, insular, and arrogant that we cannot even read English from other English speaking countries anymore? I am truly sorry that my son will have to read a watered down, adulterated version of these classic stories. What a letdown.

Harry Potter Boxset

I was very excited and pleased to be able to purchase this set, as I am a new Harry Potter fan. The "suitcase" the books came in was not up to the quality I expected. The books, however, being the most important , will last a lifetime and I will be able to pass them on to my grandchildren.

i love amazon.com

i'm very glad that i pushed through with my order from amazon,being a resident in Asia.i received the product in a very good condition,without a dent on the box!i recommend amazon.com to all of u who reads this review.amazon really takes care not only of your orders but of your satisfaction as well.in fact,i got my order a week before it was scheduled to arrive! thanks amazon!

Great Things in a bad box

I love reading these books to my grand children. However, the box is not worthy of the books and what not it holds.

Got Cardboard?

I wish I had known that flimsy cardboard could be photographed so handsomely. I wish I had known that a cheap carboard box, not even as durable as the shipping box, was costing me thirty bucks. I wish I had known what a sucker I could be, and that when after my initial enthusiasm and subsequent reading of other disappointed consumers, that in just 5 minutes after realizing I had probably ordered a disappointment, Amazon already had it "scheduled to be shipped" and so the order could not be cancelled (within 5 minutes!!!??? Wow! Talk about efficient!!), but could be returned at my inconvenience.
I love the HP collection, and had it hit and miss, so I do like having all 7 volumes in a set. But I could make a better box. Hey! You want a real treasure chest for Harry Potter? I can make it happen a lot better than this rip off.
