I've just been reminded...

...that some HP fans, fed up with the text of the US editions of the books being messed around with, are choosing to order the British editions from Amazon UK instead. This is fine if you really want to order all the way from the UK, but there's a much simpler and probably cheaper method --

Just order them from Canada. Our editions have the same text as the UK editions (not the US ones), and if you preorder from either Amazon.ca or Chapters Indigo, they'll ship it to you by June 21st.

This public service announcement has been brought to you by an annoyingly smug Canadian.

You sure they're not doing these things in queues? First ordered, first shipped?

Last I checked, Amazon and Chapters both were claiming they'd ship your order as soon as the books came in. I suppose that might have changed in the interim -- I did order back in January -- but I wouldn't be surprised if it hadn't changed, either... *goes to look*

Yep, they're offering "release date delivery to your door at no additional cost" on both sites.
