I just bought a copy of STEPHEN KING: THE NON-FICTION by Rocky Wood and Justin Brooks for $49.99 on eBay. It retailed for $75 through Cemetery Dance. Has anyone been able to get a cheaper copy yet?
Good deal, Bob!

I think it is a really good deal. Her eBay ID is katharath and she says she has multiple copies.I just did the same as you.
John
That's the one!
John
Damn you, damn you both!!!! I ordered the damn thing two years ago, waited for two years, and paid, oh wait. I didn't actually PAY for the entire book. I used store credit for $50 worth of it as I recall. Never mind.
Margaret Emmie Mackey Catoe, you are, have been, and always will be my soulmate, and I love you.
Con todo mi corazon, por todo de mis dias. And I always will, in this life and into the next.

I just sent an email cancelling my two outstanding orders, one of which is SOD I Lettered. We'll see how efficiently the refund process goes.
If you don't get a reply email them and tell that you're going to contact King's office.
That worked for me.

I just picked up this copy for $37.50. As new. The item description says slipcased, although it is not shown in the photo. I was the only bidder. There must really be no demand for this book. I'm glad to get it, though.
I think it is a really good book and you got a nice price on it. But, as you said, there is not much demand. Especially with 2000 copies printed. Think what it will sell for in two years.I think it is a really good deal. Her eBay ID is katharath and she says she has multiple copies.I just did the same as you.

I think it will go OK for you with only the two books preordered. Keep us posted.I just sent an email cancelling my two outstanding orders, one of which is SOD I Lettered. We'll see how efficiently the refund process goes.
Thanks! I'll give an update when I get a reply.
Did anyone order Stephen King Goes To The Movies? Did anyone get their copy yet? I ordered it off of Cemetery Dance. I got e-mails from Subterranean Press saying that all the copies have been shipped. I go on Cemetery Dance website and it says "Forthcoming"
WTF
Not a bad idea. The only time I pre-order from them is when I want a matching number for a signed limited (Secretary of Dreams 2). Otherwise I avoid them like the plague.

Hi pixiedark,
Here is the Stephen King Goes to the Movies thread. Members will likely post there when they start receiving their books.
This was in the latest newsletter from CD:
I just wish they'd publish the thing and not keep adding art. It's been almost two years!As we mentioned in our last update, The Secretary of Dreams (Volume 2) by Stephen King has been designed and is being proofread right now, but Glenn Chadbourne noticed a few places in three of the stories where he could squeeze in even more artwork and asked if we'd mind. Since the signature sheets are still in the works and the interior isn't set for the printer, we told him to go for it!
This week Glenn turned in THIRTEEN MORE illustrations for "The Monkey" and he's already working on more for the other stories. You can see some samples of just a few of these illustrations in this special new art gallery on our website:

There will be HUNDREDS of illustrations in the final book, but we just wanted to give you a taste of what's to come. Here is the link to the previous preview pages we've posted:

I agree, John. Although they say the additional artwork is not the hold up, I wish they would just get on with getting the book out.
Well..I'm off the email chains they sent. I really don't want more excuses and promises, so what's the point of receiving an email that will piss me off?

But Ari, if you're off the email lists, how will you know when to spend your money on the next announcement of books to be imminently released?
John
You guys hit the nail on the head. I could really give a rat's ass about more Glen Chadbourne artwork. Give me my god damn books and stop updating me with useless information.
I think I am done with them. I would be better off just keeping the money in the bank and earning interest, and then buying the book for a 20% premium on ebay when (if) it is finally released.
My bank is FDIC insured. If CD goes out of business, I am screwed.

WANTED
Signed 1st Edition of Storm of The Century (Paperback)
well I got this in my email box today from Lonely Road Books, which is basically a high line CD, run by CD.
I hate to say it, but the only author CD has ever done Gift Editions for is Stephen King. I have a sneaking feeling this might be a King book.All of the paperwork has now been signed and we're preparing to announce our next project very soon. We've actually had this one secretly in pre-production for a while, but now that everything is in order, we can really get moving. We cannot say what this project is just yet, but it's certain to be the most exciting Lonely Road Books project to date. In fact, we expect such high demand among collectors that this book will be the first LRB title to also be published as a collectible, unsigned slipcased Gift Edition (since most collectors will miss out on the signed editions). Think of Cemetery Dance's Gift Editions of From A Buick 8 or The Secretary of Dreams, or Donald Grant's Gift Edition of Desperation, and you'll get the idea what kind of special unsigned edition we're looking to create.

Interesting!
John
Didn't Bev confirm that it wasn't a King book a few months back?
