Fans snap up Harry Potter deluxe edition

NEW YORK -- It's months away from being on bookshelves, but fans can't get enough of the seventh - and final - Harry Potter book, no matter the cost.

Not only is "Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows" topping the charts of Amazon.com and Barnes & Noble.com, a deluxe edition, priced at $65, is No. 2, outselling the "You" diet book, Sen. Barack Obama and an Oprah Winfrey-endorsed memoir by Sidney Poitier.
