I have the white one from The Collector. I'd sell for what I paid for it and shipping to me + shipping to you. I can't remember exactly what they went for but someone on here might. Basically, I'm looking to break even.

I may still have an unsigned copy. I honestly can't remember if I had both my unsigned copies signed or only one. My Joe Hill collection is mostly packed up right now, but I'll dig them out and look if you need one.

Yep, that's the one, Patrick. If it's too much trouble to dig it out, don't worry about it.

**sgc1999** · 07-31-2011 11:07 AM

**Jimimck** · 07-31-2011 08:37 PM

OK Gents, what I am about to type may offend some hardcore collectors, but I've made a decision to fill in a few blanks in my collection with BCE editions of those out of my reach for the time being.

I'm keen to pick up Fine/Fine, early edition BCE copies of the following:
- Carrie
- Night Shift
- The Stand
- 'Salem's Lot

As far as I am aware, there are still BCE editions printed the same year as the original 1st/1sts? If so, thats the year I'd like to grab, rather than later printing editions. Yeah I know, If it's not a 1st/1st, why would I care what year. Don't know why, I just do :-)

Anyway, I'm in no hurry, and am aware these are readily available on Ebay, and so this is really just a call to you guys, as I expect if anyone here has any they want to get rid of, I can trust that they will be in good condition.

Also, I'm aware that shipping from the US will probably cost more than the books, so I may be best to keep an eye on Ebay UK anyway.

Cheers
James

**biomieg** · 08-01-2011 12:47 AM

I don't think you can tell the year of printing on a BCE. In the case of 'SALEM'S LOT, the blurb on the front cover is different on early and later printings so that may help, but other than that... I'd just go for the best copies you can find. You could also try and find later trade printings with a DJ price etc. At least with these you can more or less guess how old they are.

**Jimimck** · 08-01-2011 01:36 AM

Thanks Michaël, I didn't realsie that about the BCEs.
Yeah good point, just get the nicest copy I can find for a cheap price. I just want some place holders until I win Lotto or something

**sgc1999** · 08-01-2011 05:39 AM

I grabbed a mint bce copy of carrie for about $10 or $15 or so on ebay last week. says copyright 1974 stephen king on inside page. right above that says library of congress. tired of searching for a true 1st/1st too. not that i wont grab one asap.

Don't know if it makes any difference to you or not but I believe the BCE are a different size that the firsts but most of the 'early-later' printings are the same size.

**Randall Flagg** · 08-01-2011 07:18 AM

Good point. Not all BCE's are the same size as the original.

**Jimimck** · 08-01-2011 01:22 PM

Cheers guys, I'll try and see if I can find same sized ones.

Eric: PM replied.

Dick: thanks again pal.

No one. That book was limited to only 800 copies.

**jhanic** · 08-02-2011 05:54 PM

I think there were 850 copies.

Yes you are correct!

**Jimimck** · 08-02-2011 06:26 PM

I could write 1093 in my trade edition. Would that help?
