Re: ordering from Waterstones in London

A friend of mine in the US did exactly this. He called them up and paid for his books over the phone. I am not sure whether they can ship them themselves, because this friend knew somebody who was travelling from here to the US and he got this person to pick them up and post them once they were in the US. You could simply ask.

Oh, and this brings up the question, how different are the British and North American versions of Harry Potter anyway?
