New Harry Potter Book?

Has anyone else had this issue with it? I bought a copy of the new Harry Potter book on Saturday and it is tearing apart. The front cover is ripping off. I took it back to the store I bought if from and every copy in the store was the same way.

WTF?

Update:

I have noticed with the last several hard bound books that I have bought theat the publisheres are really cheaping out. This was a manufacturing defect. I refuse to pay almost 30 buck for a book that is falling apart before I read it.

    I had no trouble with mine in the 8 or 10 hours I was holding it. Sorry, bad luck.

    Ask for a refund, then buy it from borders. I'm really sorry your book is ruined, did you at least get to read some of it? I hope they will refund your money! I hope I helped!
