Alex......
Congrats on your win & prize, enjoy....:)
Could we see that FDNS letter? :drool:
yep ok. Remind me that tomorrow, ok?
A quote from it : "i believe there is another man inside every man, a stranger..."
I was looking for a reading copy of Salem's Lot a few months back. I saw an auction for a fine condition book with no dust jacket. Price was 3 EUR including shipping.
When I got the package in the mail, it was surprisingly large. I was thinking the seller is little crazy to use so much wrapping material for the book.
When I oped the package I was like :drool: , since inside was the Centipede Press edition of the book. :)
That's a great surprise kkemikk.
I've had plenty of awesome deals on King books over the years. Too many to mention.
Today I received the Collector's Edition of Under the Dome with a Cemetery Dance slipcase purchased off ebay for £30 ($46).
If I had bought them seperately from the US, the shipping costs alone to the UK would have been more than that.
Here are my 2 newest additions. Salem's Lot 1st edition book with a 3rd state dust jacket. Not to easy to find ! Has the un-clipped $7.95 price and Father Callahan correction on the flap. 2nd is one of the signature sheets from the S/L The Stand. Betts sold these just a short time ago and the buyer was kind enough to sell me one of the 3 he had.

Haul of the day :
Movie press kits of :
Children of the corn, The Night Flier, Golden Years, Pet Sematary, Firestarter.Haven (thanks Pam for helping out with delivery outside of the USA!)
Today i met once again Bernard Werber (one of the most popular french author), which did invite me to come at his place to get the proof for his next book (publication date : 1st of october)
So we talked a wee bit about new technologies bla bla bla. Then he asked me how many proofs of his books i already have, and handed me the new one.
He also gave me the one from his previous book. I thought i had it, but took it anyway (i am collecting his books, so...), and i was happily surprised, when, at home i realised that i only had the finished book!
So today i got 2 of his proofs, from the man himself!
Too bad i forgot to ask him to sign any of those.... >< I guess that i'll go ask him to sign em at the book signing of the publication date
Congratulations, Jeremy! A VERY nice haul!
