Sadly not, there were only a limited number on amazon (they bought the origional auctioned book and then made this special edition one) which you had to pre-order. Two days after the actual release date, the limited editions were sold out. But you might want to keep en eye on amazon and e-bay incase somesome decides to sell their copy.

xD Oh Fod, if I never seen one of those special editions again it'll be too soon. xDD I got the regular ol' standard edition from a local store for seven bucks, and I'm perfectly happy with it.

Though I gotta add: it's really a testament to JK's empire when you see those things at Amazon. The days before that was released, the queue was packed full of 'em - mostly the special editions - and it was really humbling. (Pretty much every cart was packed with at least fifty copies each, and I will admit: if I hadn't peeked at a p-slip and saw they were $100 I might have ordered one, too.) But pretty much, after you're stacking 400+ a day you get a little sick of 'em. xD;;

(Standards aren't as bad - not as big, and less chance to poot the thing on the wrong footprint 'n have 'em bring it back to you telling you to fix it. xD)
