    What do you guys think of this Gunslinger:

    Dark Tower ~ The Gunslinger ~ STEPHEN KING ~True First Edition 1st Printing 1982
    Overpriced, no?

    I like this part of the description: "Light perfume odor to pages. Vaguely lewd gift inscription, written in pen on the front free end paper to a previous owner".

    Weird, right?
    The absence of a thing, this can be as deadly as the presence. The absence of air, eh?
    The absence of water? The absence of anything else we're addicted to.

    "With many best wishes" is vaguely lewd????

    That book is overpriced and has been relisted quite a few times.

    I don't think anyone's offended but take your time reading all the threads. There's a lot of information to take in.

    A clamshell is a type of case to store your book in. Also referred to as a tray case. It has a hinged lid. A "remarque" is a drawing in a book usually done by the artist who illustrated the edition. They can be very small "doodles" or flew fledged intricate pictures. We have a remarqued "Dr. Sleep up for auction for the Haven Fund raiser to give you an idea. Questions are more appropriate in this thread...

    But you arwe certainly not upsetting or offending anyone. Takes some time to get used to the site. Enjoy!!!

    AMBER.. I support the remarks made about Tippy4 and was at the event in Toronto when Rick (Tippy4) got the copies he is selling.
    Note: His price includes shipping which is a definite plus and any of us who have bought from him know his packing is top notch.
    You never know what shape your book might arrive in when purchasing from an unknown seller..... (like on ebay).

    Could be the S/L, easy enough to tell if it has a number or letter or PC written in it. If it's an S/L the sig is authentic. Take a nice photo of the sig page and closeup photo of the sig and post it in the "Ebay BS Game:, Questionable Items, Signatures and Sellers" thread and the experts here that are in the know will tell you their opinion.

    This is one of my target editions - what do folks think about the asking price? - too steep or about right?
