    You're right. Well spotted. It is still a huge drop from $175 to $70.18

    I did not know there was a S/L version which was not signed by King. That means King's signature costs $195. That's the difference in the issue price of the two versions.

    150 signed by King called the artist edition. It includes an original pen drawing by Glenn Chadbourne bound into the book.

    Well, in fairness that one was listed as a buy it now at $20 and was only listed for 41 minutes before it was grabbed.

    As I mentioned in the Intriguing Auctions Thread, I think the DJ is FADED......

    Notice the color of Stephen. Should be more yellowish. I had one that faded and it looked A LOT like that one...

    If a Member got it, I certainly hope it isn't. Let us know!

    Grant's website is showing dj's for DTIV still available for $20. So, even if faded maybe it is replaceable.

    I stand by "the mighty have fallen". 4-5 years ago this book was selling for over $100, and more likely $200.
    If you say the market (for this book) hasn't collapsed, then what would you pay right now for a mint condition DTIV? The first person to say $150 should PM me.

    I don't think I mentioned it in this forum, but there was a Christine S/L that recently sold on eBay for a little over $400.

    That auction was "jacked up". Ralph had a max bid on the S/L Christine for $600.00 but the auction disappeared.....Something was screwy.

    Is that information from the seller or elsewhere, Jerome?. If this is regarding item # 350526510963, I am curious as I have been in contact with seller and was arranging to meet up for a cash transaction on another book. He ended the other auction per our conversation and everything was fine until the day before our meeting, he said the lady selling the book has changed her mind and is no longer selling it. Odd, or so I thought.....

    The seller of the Dark Tower IV may not of had a clue of the value . Just like the Bag of Bones phono Buy it now $189.00 free shipping when the auction ones sold for around $300.00 & $10 /$15 shipping.

    Nothing was amiss on this one, I personally know this seller had this listed elsewhere as well as ebay... it sold Private Party. and not for the price listed of over $400.00,
    There is a huge amount of backdoor items that mysteriously disappear from ebay listings.
    I also know this seller has a Dolan's Cadillac's for sale @ $400 (it's number is below #5)

    Do you guys think the future of king collecting is looking up or down right now? Should we be spending money to get the latest or hold out to see what happens?
