    Trying to decide if any - or all - of these are genuine signatures. At first I thought no, then I thought yes, now I'm not sure. If they are, they look a bit rushed/cramped.

    I don't like the "Firestarter" or first "Misery" at all.

    The third "Misery" (the BCA one) MIGHT be ok. The loop on the Stephen is a bit too big and the "King" looks like "Kig" but it does vaguely match some of the signatures around 2009 on the sig forum. But still don't like it much...

    Is there a technically correct term for a book like that? First edition BCE? (whereas just calling it a first edition without mentioning BCE is lying by omission) Early BCE? Original BCE?

    Rubbish. Deceit. Fraud. Worthless (other than to actually read).

    I wrote him. His listing says that we should check SKs site to verify the first edition so...

    ************************************************** ******************

    "if you are not sure of it's edition, go to Stephen King site to see that this is a true first edition"

    That's great advice. You should take it, and then stop listing a BCE as a first edition.

    I'm tempted to buy them all, and then get a refund while leaving negative feedback.

    Does anyone know who this person is? Goes by the name of "rareandsigned" on ABE. Advertises himself (or herself) as the "leading Stephen King autograph expert on the internet." What an overinflated claim!

    I looked through multiple pages on on Yelp (searched bookstores in Leeds) and didn't see any mention of SK. Thought it may have helped narrow it down but it didn't. Sorry.

    Rareandsigned.com has it's own website. Wonder if it's the same guy.

    Slaps head. I should have tried that first. It seems like it could be the same company as they boast having a massive collection of over 300 hand signed SK books. Here is the link to the about us page:
