This used to belong to our very own Gunkslinger (Mike) who sold it to donnacastle (Bret) and now I own the complete numbered set.

    Merry Christmas to ME

    My wife told me not to expect anything else under the tree.

    I need to check with Karen about registering my name to this number at Grant.

    Again, I hope this doesn't sound like bragging. I'm just excited

    Awesome Ralph!

    Wish I could jump on that bandwagon, but seems h ighly unlikely! :-(

    I'd be happy to obtain a First Gunslinger for a good price - not the current going price!

    Again, Thanks Everyone.

    I was thinking about sharing the wealth a little to a lucky member here. Now that I have #432. I was thinking about letting someone here take ownership of 5,6, & 7 #1097 registered at Grant at exact publisher price plus shipping so they can get a LSOE.

    Before I put this on DTbay....does this sound fair or has the market killed this?

    Good question. I think $250 each. It might have been a little less. I think I have $750 in the three signed limited. I purchased and registered all three directly from Grant.

    I'm only doing this to help someone here. If I go to Ebay, the price will go up

    Thanks, Ralph. I asked because I'm in sort of the same situation with #678 of V-VII, but I paid a little more than the list price. I've been debating about eBay or DTBay or just asking for PMs! I've also been debating about waiting until I get Gunslinger #64 (I can dream!) to complete my set. Hmmm....

    $200, $175 & $225 were the respective issue prices.

    Regardless, $750 is a great price - they'd probably go minimum $1000 on eBay.

    Gretchen - unless you really need the cash now, hold on to them - that way when you find your Gunslinger you'll be able to make a $4K purchase a $2.5K purchase!

    I also have a DTV/VI/VII set, but I'm definitely holding onto VII and would like to hold onto V if I can ... that leaves VI if anyone's interested.

    Thanks. I couldn't remember. I know I could get more $ on Ebay but we have so many collectors here that don't have them. I would hope I can find someone here so they can register with Grant and get the new release.

    Do we know for a fact that having a limited edition of DT7 assures a person of getting the same numbered copy of LSOE? Or are we still just speculating based on DMG's prior policy?

    I hope it's true because then I'd at least have the full story with LSOE to match my set since I really don't have tons of hope that I'll ever find the original Gunslinger #64.

    The only reason I'm confident that they'll continue that policy - is due to the headache Karen would incur if they didn't. Imagine how many emails/ phone calls Grant would get with requests for numbers ... it'd be suicide!
