Please help reactviste permissions on my LokiJake login. I've been able to login but can't send messages to anyone, post, etc.
I can post with this new login but hoping someone can contact admin or Jerome to fix the LokiJake. I just want to post :-) Thanks in advance! -Jake
I think Jerome is out of town, not sure who else can you help you at the moment.
I just sent an email to
*****d@msn.com
Thanks Jerome for the help with my account :-)
I'm sure it's not a surprise to anyone here, but I wanted more books in my office/collection and added a bookshelf to move the books i had in the hallway to where i could see them.
Acquired 1st editions Thinner and Running Man. Neil Gaiman Neverwhere 1st edition/Signed limited edition 386/500 bookplate to FEP. Also signed to title page, with mind the gap speech bubble.
The hallway books went on top of new shelves. I also moved my Eyes of the Dragon and Black house to where I put the new additions. The desk is now a little less crowded and only has my slipcase editions plus my Gunslinger 1st and 2nd printings (unsigned). Of course Rachel Readman's sculptures and my bookends were not moved.
I have some room now to add a few more as long as they are within agreed to budget with my wife. Apparently when you have a baby coming in March, you're supposed to control spending :-)

Looking good, Jake and congrats on your newest arrival in March! Great month to be born btw
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
Nice adds, and an even better add in March! Congrats man. I see those shelves and you know what I particularly like? Those gaps that will be filled, and the doors you'll be securing to them to keep the tomes away from baby hands
I thought i had found this great deal for a Tennsco shelf with glass and it turned out to be a glass kit only, so i bought the shelf. With the track and instructions, it looks like the glass will not physically go in, though I admit to possessing very limited technical ability. You're right of course that I'll have to figure something out :-)

Big congrats on the expected new addition to the family!
After receiving Neverwhere copy I posted above, I started looking at more Gaiman books and found American Gods #377 slipcase edition online. It turned out the seller was Borderland Books in San Francisco, so I was able to inspect and pick up in person. I included in pic signed ticket/key from the Coraline premiere after party (my brother volunteered for event in Portland years ago and Gaiman signed after borrowing his Sharpie).
3-14 updated pics to reflect return of the #377 (had faded window spot and overall fading vs the #188 in mint) and add of Neverwhere.
When I read your reply Antoni, I started thinking about how I was going to protect more valuable books on shelf since I bought a Tennsco glass kit that won't fit; anyone need a big piece of glass + track? . I recently had some good luck that the power button on my computer quit working and got permission to make some office changes. I told the boss (my wife) I needed more work space on my desk and while reorganizing, solved the problem of where to put some of those vulnerable books I had on shelf.
While the Crimson King doesn't stare at me all day anymore, I'm happy how the whole thing turned out. I have all my DT books together and have the new Gaiman/Bachman books with the other non-DTs. Hopefully this will be the last post for awhile where everyone has to endure pics of my complete office again, but wanted to show CK + some of Maerlyn's Rainbow and book arrangement.

Cool solution - for now . Great adds. I love how the collection is expanding nicely from the original Dark Tower roots...
After receiving and posting here about #377 S/L American Gods which I knew had the faded spot on book cover from window cut into slipcase, I found this #188 S/L that had no window/faded spot. It shouldn't have been that big of a deal, but it bothered me enough where i snatched it up. Both copies are great condition minus the faded window spot on 377 (which is also overall more faded), but the #177 is Mint. I of course didn't need 2 copies but what can you do Maybe Borderlands will give me a partial refund...

After seeing so many amazing posts and collections here, I'm sure everyone here understands that sometimes you have amazing days even with a limited collection like I have. Receiving my CK sculpture, Gunslinger #51 and my 1st set of books when i started collection come to mine for me. It's also an amazing bonus to share those days with people on this site who get it.
When I acquired #51 set early last year, two of the books had already been sold. I asked the seller Departed Books to reach out to the buyers of Wizard and Glass and Song of Susannah a few times and in both cases there was no response. When Anthony/firemonkey66-hope i have your name right- (awesome, amazing, grateful pop in my head) posted on my thread that #51 for Song of Susannah was on ebay, I was able to reach out the the seller to have him end his listing and do a deal (via ebay so he wouldn't get penalized) where he would sell it to me outright since i didn't want to take a chance of it being sold to someone else (or wait). I purchased on Sunday and it arrived today. After a couple of glasses of wine to enjoy the moment, I opened package and am now only one book away from completing the set. It was in plastic and the seller only unwrapped to put covers on dust jacket as he had planned on keeping; it is in perfect condition.
I reached out to the seller of the original set again to forward a somewhat ridiculous offer to the buyer of Wizard and Glass #51 (including offering to physically travel there so he can inspect trades i'm offering so no worries about mailing). That aside it's a great day where i can cross out one of my two wanted books in my signature and halfway to filling the two missing slots. I have #293 and Publisher's copy of SOS, but the #51 is more valuable to me then both of them combined. I'm stoked/happy/on cloud 9 tonight with the full bottle of wine almost finished
