    No...no.... must collect it all...bwahhahah...my precious...collect it all! (done in best Gollum voice!)

    I agree it's an interesting King anomaly just not a 100K worth to me! Do you have some unpublished Misery dust jackets you could sneak onto the market?:excited:[/QUOTE]

    Exactly... not worth it...

    True, they originally wanted the higher price and printed the jackets then changed them with the clipped corner and sticker. But, none were actually published or sold on a book.
    Maybe prototype...

    You are right, a first Philosopher's Stone, a signed Hobbit, have reached iconic status. I can't figure out how a never published prototype dust jacket reaches the same iconic status?
    It is just...

    Alec,
    I have mentioned this before but honestly do you think this item is worth that much money? I know "it's worth what someone is willing to pay".
    But, I just can't figure out why ANYONE would...

    Hey Ari, I have one. If I remember right it's a story on the Dark Tower world and King. Not an interview. There is a really interesting story on Gary Gygax on the whole empire of D & D. -K

    HPB usually pays 10% or less. So if they looked it up and thought it was worth $4000, then they paid the person $400, or less, because their managers get a commission
    based on sales so they pay as...

    I got the same reply, but my email states $5000 refundable deposit.[/QUOTE]

    You are correct it is a "refundable" deposit. I mis-read it. For the record, I have never bought or dealt with Emmanuel...

    I asked for a list and got a reply that said they had an interested buyer who put down a $5000 non-refundable deposit.
    So, somebody has money to burn.
    I seriously doubt the collection is worth...
  12. Why would someone pay $23.00+ for this? Just go...

    Why would someone pay $23.00+ for this? Just go on the Bangor Daily News site and order a copy, I think it was $6.00 with shipping. They keep up to six months.
  13. Ditto-classic X-Files, great writing!

    I wish! Same little pop-up box you see at restaurants that use tablets - gives you a choice between 15%, 20%, and 25%...

    Oh, and they are selling them for $120 (not as bad as Very Fine Books, but...

    Bookmark makes this very valuable:

    Is this seller a member here?

    Marc Brenner was one of the original supercollectors. Stu sold off most of his collection , I'm guessing it was around 2000? It was before Charlie Fried's.
    Marc is credited in the Beahm book, an...
  16. Good point on the private distribution!

    In cases like The Stand it is easy to argue that the Lettered shouldn’t be worth more than the S/L, as they are the same book but I do put more value on the Lettered. That being said I have a...

    It's not weak Alec at all, I have bought many King items "just because"!! I just threw this out as a topic of discussion.
  18. I guess because I was in publishing for many...

    The perception, on the part of some collectors, of greater rarity due to the lettered limitation. Even though the books are exactly the same, the idea of owning one of 26 can be more appealing for...

    While I agree with Alec and David about the rise in popularity and value of Lettereds, there is one area I have never understood and I'll just throw it out for discussion.
    I've been collecting for...

    I don't think it's a complete same numbered set. It looks like Wizards & Glass is number 290 while the rest are 272, pretty strange. Maybe I didn't look long enough.
