The funny part about your statement is that he lives about 5 miles from me...
They make me sad
The second one has been removed.

What was that 2nd one, Ceri? I only ask because I reported one yesterday that was absolutely terrible and had one of those illustrious COAs from a reputable company. Although if you LOOKED at the COA, it wasn't even for the book in the auction!Hoping it was the one removed (but I can't even remember which SK book it was).
And I reported the first one. Ridiculous.

srry i dont have regular internet access to remove them any more, i will try to do my best to still kill 'em when i can...
I didn't see them before they were removed, but they couldn't be worse than this...

...and the seller is called, "authenticsignedfirsteditions". Cheeky!
This 'lovely' signed first edition burns my retinas and hurts my brain...
And it's not a first edition.

Apparently that's because the seller name lousyf*ck*ngfrauds was taken.
Indeed.And it's not a first edition.

Another irritating fake. Reported. Grrr

That one IS terrible. Also reported.
John
No, no. It actually IS signed. Just not by Stephen King.
Of course, the seller obviously doesn't believe it.

I'd love to own a kicked around copy of Tommyknockers signed by none other than "Steven Stiger"
Mostly embarassing I feel...
Here's the question I sent him:
Do you have any idea how horribly fake that signature is? Do you realize that IF it were real (it's not) you still couldn't expect to get five dollars for it on that mangled book. I'll send you five dollars though to remove this hideous fraud from the internet though. LOL
Hahaha!
Haha! You crack me up! I will pay you $5 to take it down.
Can't wait to hear if you get a reply!

What do you think of this one, would be nice to see the signature bigger as it looks like SK was drunk when he signed it.

Ick, ick, triple-ick. Clicking on the enlarge button and seeing it a little bigger makes me lean even more toward thinking it's fake, although there is some semblance to the real thing. Even if it IS real, though, I don't think I'd want it. Did I say ick?
ETA: The sig itself just plain doesn't look right - lots of things wrong with it. But "with best wishes" and the little squiggle are what gives it some possible merit, IMO.
