Hi all, any ideas on the value of a Christine Grant S/L?
Grazie mille...
Anyone any idea how much a F/F set of Viking Dark Tower reprints would go for?
Talking about the 2003 books, 1st/1st editions.
Thanks!

Just wondering since there seem to be a lot of these "special" editions. What value do you think there will be for a UK Sleeping Beauties S/L in "shipping damaged" condition? I may be selling mine.
Here is my damaged copy.

Ouch!! I think that's the worse we've seen by far! I'd say you're due a total refund and whatever you can then sell it for.
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
I'm not sure you could sell it at cost with that damage. I'd seek a refund.
Working on getting a refund. Was just wondering if it would be worth selling vs. returning.

Had a look on ebay, but didn't notice anything recent; what are thoughts on the current value of CTCC anomaly edition?
I saw a few on in a local store the other day. They had been remaindered with a black mark so they would be a bit lower in value, but still curious of current rate.

Are you talking about this one?
It shows a little spine damage. Recent eBay sales have been around $50.

If they have a remainder mark, they are worthless other than as reading copies for children.
I think that a remainder mark on a book would affect its stated condition and lower the value, but worthless seems a little harsh.
Either way, I was just curious on CTCC and appreciate the thoughts.

Not trying to be harsh, but it (remainder mark) takes a ~$40 book and makes it worth less than $10 IMO. Not sure what they are selling them for, but as stated, from a collectible perspective, they have no real value.
Are "review" copies worth any more. I have a review copy first ed for Firestarter. Some one said that a first ed first print may be as high as $125? That is more that I thought. I also have a review copy of Misery. They both have a pic of King and a copy of the review. Plus a flat signed Carrie. Don't have a pic of that one though. But I will put it up with my new S\L Skeleton Crew that I just got.
Thanks
This is a nice link that has some prices on some of the more expensive King books. They mentioned that a signed Carrie can be worth $7500. The article is only a year old. That can't be right.
Can it.

$7,500 did seem steep. But some of the others seemed closer. Who knows. I think your value of $1900 is closer to the truth. Thanks.
Now I wonder if my review copies are worth more. Probably not. Oh well. The stuff is still cool to have. I also have a Nightshift, first ed that is inscribed but it has some inside cover damage. So I am sure that would lower the price.
P.S is a first ed Fire starter really worth $125? What about a first ed Dead Zone.
Thanks
Just for the record, I think your review copies look great.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

Thanks. When I bought them from Stu, way back when, there was no mention of them being review copies. It's just that I have never seen them (review copies)before. I like the review sheet. I think it looks cool. My Dead Zone is a review copy as well but it only has the review card, not the review page itself .
