I wouldn't buy either one of them.
I had a recent fire sale on all my extra Dark Tower books (so I could buy Sins of the Fathers off Shannon). This guy bought most of my stuff; the prices he is now asking for the items he bought off me are insane, and his item conditions are questionable. For example, I sold him two W&G firsts for $70 (total). The books were both pretty loose, had dog-eared pages and reeked of smoke. One of them had a gouge in the dust jacket spine. I described my books extremely accurately, including the smell. Anyway, it's hard to see but in this auction he is selling a W&G as Brand New/Nice/Perfect/Good DJ; if you look close, you'll see that the DJ has a gouge through the letters "ST" on the spine. I feel bad for anyone who buys that book at that price. I have no problem with the re-selling, but pretending that this book is "perfect" is just silly.
Both forged

lol that is the best fake real signature I've ever seen, lol.
That is pretty bad. Thanks also for pointing out the seller to us, Robert. He has lots of King items listed and I had considered bidding on a few of them. One of the the Viking Gunslinger 1st. Did you sell him that too?. His reply to my inquries on it is as new. No flaws. Now I am reconsidering buying anything for him at all!.
I sold him Viking DT I - IV, but they were book club editions. None had prices on the dust jackets, but II and IV did have full printing number lines. Given that right now he is listing I and IV, showing the number line only for IV and showing the price for neither, they could be the ones I sold him. The books I sold were in very nice shape, but if you really want then you should just consider signing up for the doubleday book club.

Ha ha! Oh, man...yeah, I think that one's probably not legit. I laughed out loud, and I'm not even a well-schooled collector. (sirens going off, "whoop! whoop!")
