Yikes. For that price, I would've thought something would've been included to house it in (with that, it would be a good deal).

Yeah I'm getting it because it has the extra novella that won't be published elsewhere and I'm sure it'll be a good production so I certainly don't regret getting it but I'm still annoyed...I think back on the IT 25th Anniversary Edition from CD and that had more pages overall, around the same number of color plates (if NOS4A2 has more it's not by a whole lot) and still cost $125 for the Gift Edition. Unless I'm missing anything like premium binding or better paper IDK why the cost wouldn't cover a slipcase.
Fortunately there's a guy recommended here who makes quality slipcases for cheap (jeffrey.whiley@ntlworld.com) that I'll try contacting so it's not the end of the world but...

I'm not disagreeing that I wish there was a slipcase. In fact, I love the way Gauntlet does it by offering the slipcase for an additional $25. But, on the other hand, if there were a slipcase it would probably have doubled the price by SP. case in point, Locke & Key S/L's were all $250 each. I was actually quite surprised that it was "only" $125. I'm also glad they didn't do a gift edition. That would have just been more money that I didn't need to spend.
I don't own any of the L&K LEs but I figure that has to do with most of the book using a glossy paper stock for the comic.

I forgot about the novella. That's a pretty nice bonus, too.
A NEW GAME BEGINS
So I've been thinking of what slipcase I should get.
Jeff Whiley has these two for Joe Hill. I asked if he took custom titles but I know nothing about how expensive plates are. They cost 12.95 euro which amounts to a little less than 20 dollars.
On the other hand, I know Stephenkingcollector might be making one for $35 dollars if there's enough demand. I imagine that his will have NOS4A2 on it.
I've never gotten one from either so I was wondering if I'm better off ordering from Whiley once I get the measurements or wait for the SK collector one.
And before anyone asks, I've decided to not get a Dolso one at this point. Maybe in the future, though.

I own several slipcases from Jeff, he alwasy offered:
diff. colors for: Slipcase + printing
diff. printing: JH or Joe Hill
And of cause more or less everything special is possible.
Here are some of my custom slipcases from Jeff

I inquired about a custom title and the plates cost up to £45
Hm if that's the case I'll probably just stick with the preexisting plates. Given how big/thick NOS4A2 probably is I wonder if Joe Hill's full name would fit on the spine vertically?

I should add that that price is if he can use the plate again. If he thinks he could use it or other projects you may only have to pay the standard slipcase cost.
I guess I'll float the NOS4A2 idea by him then and if not then no harm done.
