I thought this might be a fun idea for a thread what is the most you ever spent on a single King item? Or what is the most you would spend on a King item if the opportunity presented itself?

I don't keep records, but I paid at least £850 for my first copy of the UK 1st/1st Carrie. The runner-up is probably $750 for the Spring '69 issue of Ubris. I think I could justify paying > $2,000 for a Doubleday proof if the opportunity arose...

Pretty modest compared to what some King items sell for but if you would have asked me ten years ago if I'd ever spend more than 100 bucks on a book I'd have ROFL'ed...
