Prices have become outrageous.
I agree with John that the signature is OK. The COA adds nothing. In fact the photo shows King signing a hardcover book rather than a softcover like the one being auctioned. At least it looks like a hardcover book being signed to me.Looks okay, but the COA makes me very hesitant about it.

No idea regarding the price, but IMO KIng's signature is legit:
Gahan Wilson & Stephen King autographed magazine article, a note & envelope
Might work if your name is Dan. Seek 2nd opinion on signature and ask questions about DJ price, numberline etc.

I'm confused by the first picture. Is this the first of 9 he's selling?
Knowing Gerald, he'll have 9 copies
I thought of 10; downsizing to 1Knowing Gerald, he'll have 9 copies
Just a fyi a new unfolded dustcover for this Firestarter can be bought for $40.60 plus shipping on abe book's, I just checked there I bought one just recently.
Hi,I thought of 10; downsizing to 1Knowing Gerald, he'll have 9 copies
10? That's just being silly. No, there was 9, and it looks like this auction will sell, so I will be down to 8. Interestingly enough, you can't sell multiple copies at the same time because they are all different. If I had done that, it would be a violation. Anyway, I don't want to sell them all. As David Morse says in "Contact" to Jodie Foster, "Small steps, Sparks. Small Steps."
Take care.

I saw this one yesterday morning... at that point it still had a $1100 BIN option. I almost jumped on it but didn't have the funds available...
It is not there now... I wonder why it was removed? Maybe thought it would go for more? I am at a grand in the lead... However will NOT go any higher...I saw this one yesterday morning... at that point it still had a $1100 BIN option. I almost jumped on it but didn't have the funds available...

"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
Really? I am sure I have seen numerous auctions where you can just buy it Simon... and bids are going... maybe I am wrong though!BIN option disappears when first bid is placed.It is not there now...

You are correct. When there is a reserve, the BIN will remain in effect until it is met or exceeded. I did not remove any feature. Funny enough, I cannot even view the auction. I can only login to eBay and check the status through my account. It does not display the current auction in S.E. Asia for some reason.Unless there is reserve.

Try a proxy. You could use the TOR browser and it will assign random IP addresses from all over the world. If one IP address doesn't work refreshing to another might. That's a good way to view regional content. I'm not sure what your specific issue is but it's worth a try.You are correct.
