But Tuesday, four days before the official publication of the eagerly awaited book, the owner of a Brooklyn health food store sold his last copy of the children's novel to a New York Daily News reporter.

He told the newspaper he received a shipment of four Potter books Monday and was never informed about the 12:01 a.m. Saturday embargo. All four copies sold very quickly. The fifth installment of J.K. Rowling's series about a boy wizard has already gained more than a million advance orders on just amazon.com and its American publisher plans to print a record 8.5 million copies.
