I've gotten a few items lately; the BAG OF BONES candy and the THINNER stress reliever from Shannon, a Canadian first of THE LONG WALK in great condition, and the dogtags from HEARTS IN ATLANTIS from E-bay (I was the only bidder):

Sweet (pun certainly intended in relation to your BoB candy) additions Steve :smile:
First time I have seen or heard of the Bag of Bones candy. Nice.
Congratulations!
I saw the BoB candy before and I wasn't really sure if it was official or not. Do we know anything about it?
All I know is Shannon had it for sale among his many King items and I thought the price was right! I'm one of (the few?) people who liked the Brosnan movie and so I was very happy to get this promotional item.
I received my PS Publishing CHRISTINE a couple of days ago. It's a very nice book!

"Merlin1958" thinks your collection "sucks", but I think it is wonderful and that is a very nice addition!!!
Why thank you SandMAn. I think your vacuum cleaner sucks too.
There was a big package on my porch today from the UK with 5 Stephen King books inside, including these 2 omnibuses. They are book club editions most likely. They have ISBNs, dust jackets, and one even has a number line, but no prices:

I like those omnibus editions. Carrie and Tommyknockers though, what a random combination.
Arrghh, I could make a joke about that, but I won't.
Anyway, better late than never, I finally got my 3 special UK editions (except for the facsimile signed one which I already had) of DOCTOR SLEEP. Ironically, I still don't have the trade UK hardcover, but it's on order from CD. What number did I get in the 200 signed edition? I'll never know, it's wrapped in an impenetrable force field I believe is called shrinkwrap:

5 x Congrats for NICE new SK UK books !!!
Sweet additions indeed Steve :smile:
Thanks Frank and Grant!
And thanks James! I received my Australian versions of the UK DOCTOR SLEEP and THE SHINING trade paperbacks today. Two versions are sometimes better than one:

No problem pal, glad to see they arrived.
Today I got my UK hardcover of DOCTOR SLEEP from Amazon.com.uk. I ordered it late and was afraid I'd get a beat up 2nd or 3rd printing, but instead received a completely unprotected (except for the cardboard shipping box) near MINT copy and a 1st printing!

Congrats!!!!
Just noticed the Orson Scott Card books Steve. The look really cool. I've read the Ender series and am looking forward (I think) to the movie.
I enjoyed the movie. It's been a long time since I read ENDER'S GAME, and the movie brought back memories of the book, although of course I recall the book had more material in it.
A few recent acquisitions:
