    Pure money grab as I would think King gets revenue from the sales of the book-that or it goes to the stand-in Beryl Evans.
    What he gets from this one I bet only covers a day at the spa for, Tabitha!! lol lol


    Spoiler:

    That's too bad.
    However, and I may be in the minority here, I love the blurb on the front! Which makes me like this better than the SDCC version.

    Really want one of these but the shipping is nearly $60 for a book that is a third of that. Sucks.
    Selling EVERYTHING! Come and get it!

    Keeps falling as I predicted. I think prices may stabilize soon unless the elusive 350 make an appearance.

    As long as the availability remains at approximately 150 in circulation the value should remain the same or increase always dependent upon demand. The release of the film should spike it if received well. The rarer they are the more valuable as time goes by, no? Naturally, should 350 more copies hit the market all bets are off. lol

    Especially if they are shown in the movie. Although I dont see why they wouldn't if SONY made them as a promotional freebie for the movie

    Ari has read the script and I think he said there was no mention of the book in the movie.

    That really shouldn't make a difference. Especially, if the film is a success. Folks will be looking for all they can get if the film is a hit.

    BTW, for the record I have no vested interest other than as a fan one way or the other. I'm just an optomist for the film and everything related is all.

    But if a lot of the story takes place in New York, surely they squeezed that in. Otherwise, despite being a nice DT related item, it wouldnt make sense to do such a promo item... even for SDCC where people are keen of artwork and comics.

    Mayhap it was "put in" in a later draft of the screenplay. We will have to wait and see

    Not every prop need be mentioned in the screenplay.

    There will most likely be one other difference.

    On the second to last page, the word "hell" is used, and apparently the good folks at Scribner had issue with that word appearing in a children's book, and wanted it removed or replaced.

    I assume they got their wish, but won't know for sure until the book is released.

    I'm okay with taking out "hell". In the Waste Lands, King switches between quoting from the "real" book and paraphrasing, and I think "hell" is from the paraphrased part.

    Well they still "claim" to be doing Drawing of the Three. And if Jake is being brought into the world via the house in this movie then there is a chance that he may survive this film in which case he would need to be doing something during the Drawing. Perhaps he gets back to NYC during all of that and finds the books in that movie?

    Yes and no. The rarity helps but if no one wants something in the future it's value is not going to rise. There are plenty of very limited edition books that sell for peanuts because the writer is not famous. In this case the desire factor was off the charts but it there a run of normal ones most people are going to be happy with that. So then you have the appeal only as a movie tie in as it's not really tied to king in any specific way and has the signature of an actor. I wanted one but I am perfectly happy with the normal run considering what it is. If I had to guess I will say it will stabilize around the $100-150 mark maybe less. The ones with the clear signatures or interesting inscriptions might pull more.
