[bangoskank1]

As most of you know Sai King is coming to Boston in November. as you also know he will sign 2 books one being the one hes promoting......I live here...Because I have a few First editions I would like signed I am bringing my wife and daughter...only problem is I hafta buy 3 Just After Sunsets books to do this..Not only do I not need 3 but I know that some of you peeps can't get here to get em signed....I will sell two of them at regular cost to two people on here....another problem is I dont know how to choose only two of you (I do have few in mind)...any ideas on how to choose would be greatly appreciated...

Patrick in California.

I'll pay for the book and shipping, cover the Paypal fee, and I'll chip in for gas too! :D

[Randall Flagg]

Thanks again for being thoughtful.:rock:

Thanks!

[Rahfa]

Just to be a killjoy about it, isn't this the kind of offer that might be better if there had been some announcement of venue/rules/time, etc?

It's in Mass., but that doesn't mean Boston, and it might be a reading matched with pre-signed books, or it might be a signing of just the one book like "Best Short Stories" signing...

Or maybe the crowd is huge and people just don't get things signed like they thought they would...

I'm bringing two people with me too, depending on format, and I'll be there very early...whereever it is...haha...

i have a few questions for you rahfa. are you questioning james' integrity? when you say "isn't this the kind of offer that might be better if there had been some announcement" do you mean an announcement of the signing he knows about (which he has cannot control)? or an announcement of his generous offer to attempt to obtain two additional signed copies and offer them for sale here (which is what this thread is)?

james has had some damn good information in the past, and some damn good speciality items before anyone else had access to them, so i'm wondering what exactly you are worried about? if you want your name in the hat, throw it in. if you don't, then don't.

he's not promising us anything. he's saying if he gets the two extras signed he's going to have a drawing of everyone whose name is in the hat and sell those two (at cost) to the two people whose names are drawn.

so what exactly is the problem? am i missing something here? if this is simply an attempt to "just be a killjoy" as you say, then please take it to another thread. maybe the displeased and bothered thread. we're all pretty excited at even the prospect of this and really appreciate james even thinking about us at a signing.

say thankya. :)

[Woofer]

Just to be a killjoy about it,

That won't get anyone's hackles up at all.


isn't this the kind of offer that might be better if there had been some announcement of venue/rules/time, etc?

Bangoskank1 has already stated when King is coming (November) and what he will be signing (2 books, 1 of which is the new collection), and then he offered the extra copies of Just After Sunset at cost - quite generous.


It's in Mass., but that doesn't mean Boston, and it might be a reading matched with pre-signed books, or it might be a signing of just the one book like "Best Short Stories" signing...

Or maybe the crowd is huge and people just don't get things signed like they thought they would...

Or he could decide to personalize everything. Or Tabby and Joe could show up and sign stuff, too. Or it could be canceled because of bad chicken consumed the night before. That in no way negates the generosity of bangoskank1's offer.


I'm bringing two people with me too, depending on format, and I'll be there very early...whereever it is...haha...

And will you be making an equally generous offer or selling them on eBay for good $$$?


if this is simply an attempt to "just be a killjoy" as you say, then please take it to another thread. maybe the displeased and bothered thread. we're all pretty excited at even the prospect of this and really appreciate james even thinking about us at a signing.

I second these comments - particularly thanking James/bangoskank1.

Is this one of those "No Good Deed Goes Unpunished" kind of things.

Bango is making a very generous offer, why bust on it? If you don't want to throw your hat in the ring for the chance or opportunity, then don't. You won't be missed.

I completely don't get people like this.

Bango - ignore them. Please. I for one, and I know other folks, really really really appreciate the offer.

Edited To Add : Yeah! What turtlesong and woofer said.

( sorry, should have finished reading the thread before responding ).

[what]

wow... i can't believe i didn't see this earlier... is there any exact info on when this is happening? I have family in the area and they would be more than happy to attend this for me!

*edit - just read on the sk boards that the info won't be released till Sept... ugh

[douglasesper]

hello bango...
cool even if he didn't/doesn't personalize it i know tim would flip out...personally i am not much of an autograph guy, but if you could arrange for me to shake kings hand...hehe just kidding...but please put my name in, and thanks for being cool
douglas esper

[alinda]

bango, I know you keep your word, ( me too :ninja:) I got some really great mail from you today....thank you it is wonderful!:couple:

[Ricky]

hey ...just so YOU know...you have no clue who I am...

I think it's quite obvious who you are...you MUST be Stephen King! That's why you are giving the two books away because why would you want a signed copy of your own book? :rofl:

In all seriousness, you are pretty cool for doing this. There are very few people in the world who would be as generous as you. :)

[Matt]

If he is Stephen King....well, I'll shit my pants flat. :lol:

[TLC]

ummm, hi!

Can i be included in the draw?? If not, it's ok....but I thought I'd ask, i'm still kinda new here.

you know, I've thougth about this before, (King having a membership on this site) it's scared the shit out of me, the possibility that I may have talked to Sai King, and never realized it. Cuz chances are, if that did happen, i probably said some dumbass comment, or fucked up in some way :lol:

[alinda]

It could happen...ya think?:ninja:

[TLC]

I think it's very possible!! He'd probably get a kick out of reading all of our posts!

[The Lady of Shadows]

okay, first of all if he were stephen king do you think he'd do something so stupid as to give out all this primo, original, collectable, stuff? especially stuff that he got before anybody else could get their hands on it? please, he's the master of horror not the master of stupid. :rofl:

dialing. waiting. ringing.

hello?
yes, hello. i'd like to speak to mr. obvious please?


second, i'm sure that sai king spells much better than james ( :P to you james. your last few post have been horrible. i say just horrible boy!). :lol:

third, james doesn't swear nearly enough to be sai king. seriously, i swear more than james. think about it. i use fuck in practically every fucking post. it's like my signature fucking word. can you see sai king writing without swearing? has he ever written anything without swearing? anything other than maybe speeches (oh, wait i've heard him swear in a few of those so nevermind. . . .) :nope:

fourth, why on earth would stephen king want to make matt shit his pants flat? that would be just plain mean! :wtf: :lol:

:P
:grouphug:

[turtlex]

I think it's very possible!! He'd probably get a kick out of reading all of our posts!



It's true, we are amusing as all get out.

[alinda]

:lol: James you getting all this? :lol:

Really come on guys focus!! Were getting a chance to buy a book here.
Its a good deal to be sure, but come on this convo is bordering on silly.:wtf:
Don't you think?
Good point there t/s Sai King does write better/dirtier, and besides he (SK)
if he were here, likely would just lurk. I doubt he'd be too very involved.
One more thing ...turtlex, that cracked me up!:huglove:

[bangoskank1]

tsk tsk tsk....eye taek sech ofence on knot beeing won hoo ken spel...do ya ken?

I think I'll lurk a little more...I have a score to settle with Bricey boy.

[Brice]

A score? :unsure:

Sounds ominous!

[alinda]

take it to the first lines thread boys , yer scareing me ....:lol:

[what]

Oh yeah... can I get in on this? The family will be in Holand of all places for all of November:(

[Brice]

A score? :unsure:
