Here's his reply-100% MONEY BACK IF NOT HAPPY
My response (I forget my exact words...this is the general idea though)-You should have taken me up on the offer of five dollars to pull it. Now I'm reporting you for selling this fake. No five dollars for you and hopefully your auction will be pulled for you very soon. Have a nice day!
Looks like someone named Steve S. was the book owner at one time possibly.
I have a Uncle named Steve, maybe I should get him to sign a few and then sell them on ebay...
Life is a garden...dig it!
I think this seller was discussed, maybe not...but what do people think of the eBay seller camelot_si. Theyu have had several signed King books up for sale. I have found some blatently fake but a few looked very legit. They have two up for sale now...was looking at the 1st edition Shining
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
Shining looks legit to me, but not HIA. Looking at the seller's feedback, though, Greg's (Shibus) purchased a couple of books from him.

The Shining looks legit.

I have my doubts about their copy of Hearts in Atlantis.
Here.
The "g" looks too big and the "Stephen", I can't put my finger on why, but it doesn't look right.
Here's a question though, did Steve have any signings during 2000 when The Shining is dated? It's a little close to his accident, so I thought the question should be asked.

Some of their signed book does look good to me too. I just don't see how the seller, if they are a serious collector, could explain owning this:

That sig actually doesn't look bad and the fact that the entire page is black would explain why the sig is in silver Sharpie, BUT I still think it's more fake than Pamela Anderson's breasts.

It certainly looks fake to me.

I found a signed and dated (in the year of publication) copy of SKELETON CREW on ABE. I have long looked for such a copy. SKELETON CREW is one of the few books by King that I do not have signed.
I asked the seller for a scan of the signature and here is what I got. I know what I think but told the seller I would submit it to the group for a collective opinion.
I agree. There are too many letters in King.

I don't like it. And this is the closest I've been able to get to YOP. I've been looking as well.
I guess it all comes down to a simple choice for me. "Get Busy Living, or Get Busy Dying".
This is an 85 sig I have. Maybe it will help compare:
