[access-uk] Re: HARRY POTTER AND ACCESS TO BOOKS

HARRY POTTER AND ACCESS TO BOOKSIan - I thought I heard last weekend that the 
supplier of the HP to Asda had cancelled their order because they discovered 
Asda were going to sell it at £8.95 instead of the regular price of £17.99. 
Maybe you have the updated info on this, but it surprises me as it's contrary 
to what the supplier made public a few days ago!

Not that I'm sure what difference it makes to the supplier, as they will still 
get paid whatever the agreed wholesale price is.

  The availability of the new HP in accessible formats on the Same Book, Same 
Time, Same Price principle was discussed here recently.  However, a piece on 
Today this morning reported that hardly anyone will be selling the book at it's 
cover price.  ASDA has discounted it to £5.  Not very likely, is it, that 
similar offers will be made to consumers of Braille or Daisy versions?  My 
guess is that many people who're fans and who can - of whom I'm the latter but 
not the former - will head for their nearest supermarket and get the book on 
their scanner.
