I didn't post it as the price was/is out of whack. The inscription and the faded DJ lower the deal by $3K+
I suggest an offer of $8K.

Haha, it's funny that you come right out and say it because my gut reaction to the inscription is negative. It's so big and distracting on such an iconic limitation page in the King world. It's crazy to think that at the time, it was only a 60 dollar book, so why not inscribe it before sending it out?Originally Posted by carlosdetweiller
Looking for:
- Philtrum Press Eyes of the Dragon RED #165
- Fine Viking Eyes of the Dragon proof
The inscription might not bother some people because it's Donald Grant after all, and depending on the seller's personal definition of OBO, it might be a good opportunity for somebody to get a complete matching number set for 10 grand or less. If it was being sold by Very Fine Books, it would be 15 grand or more, and somebody would buy it.

The "discoloration" on DT5 bothers me more than the inscription.

Me too.
But still a nice opportunity for someone to own a complete numbered set at a relatively low cost.
I was surprised that this went so cheaply. $2,025 bought by a name from the past, scaryad.
Agreed... under $10K would be a steal... not hard to grab the dust jackets needed for relativity cheap in the grand scheme of things...Me too.

It sold for quite a bit less than I think it is worth. Kerry got a good deal, IMO.I was surprised that this went so cheaply. $2,025 bought by a name from the past, scaryad.

I really don't appreciate you sharing what I buy. There is a reason Ebay has encrypted names. If I wanted to post it here I would.I was surprised that this went so cheaply. $2,025 bought by a name from the past, scaryad.
I had no idea that you were the ebay name "scaryad". I just recognised the ebay name from years ago, (and said so). You have now linked this ebay name with yourself, not me.I really don't appreciate you sharing what I buy. There is a reason Ebay has encrypted names.

Same here...I didn't know it was you. AWESOME item to have.

It's called "The Barbara Streisand Effect".
Anyone looking for a 1/1 Firestarter paperback? May want to ask for a photo of the copyright page. Price seems a little high to me. Or maybe not as you seldom see one for sale.
Fire-starter (E9964)
I think the 1st printings don't have 'Cujo' in the blurb.
Although I think John Hanic has a copy with 'Cujo' and a full number line but I think that's an anomaly.
I have to agree. My first reads, "From the author of The Dead Zone".
No mention of Cujo.

I asked the seller for a photo which I just received and it's a 2nd impression. Mine also makes no mention of Cujo although Michaël is correct as I also remember seeing previous reports that there is a 1/1 with the Cujo mention.
I knew who it was. Bob knew who it was.I had no idea that you were the ebay name "scaryad". I just recognised the ebay name from years ago, (and said so).

"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
Once it was posted that "scaryad" was the winner I knew who it was. But prior to that I had no idea.
But then I really don't spend any time trying to figure out other bidders' identities.
Bidding starting at $0.01 (no apparent reserve). UK seller has only 1 feedback score.
