Wow. This whole thing ended up being a giant cluster. Their response to Simon is utterly ridiculous. I don't believe for a second they have signed/lettered anything and if it ends up that they do who gets them?
I'll get the April box and this Salems Lot "special edition" because the hassle 'aint worth it and I am done.
I am going to write the letter 'A' in all of my Stephen King books and then I can honestly say I have over 750 lettered King books.
I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.
And the people bowed and prayed, to the cell phone god they made...
Well I ended up with a signed Unbury Carol so I'm a little appeased. But not enough to un cancel!
Given the way these folks are behaving, I am very glad that i did not order anything from these individuals since the Gwendy's box

"A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King
In looking at the Reviews section of the NRB page on FB, I don’t see any reviews referencing these issues. Very few poor reviews that are a few months old. Have reviews been deleted somehow?

For me, the reviews are listed in order of "Most Helpful" (comedy gold as mine is first in that list! ) but you can also order by Most Recent and Star Rating - check how yours is being ordered.

It appears that they are deleting them. I don’t do facebook so I’m limited to what’s public, but if anyone has been posting much negative feedback, I don’t see it.

just checked and I see Simon's posts, so don't think they are deleting them. didn't see them until I saw Simon's comment about how they are sorted (don't do facebook, so was unaware of that). For me with the "Most Helpful" sorting, it is fairly buried, maybe for Simon it is near the top, since it is his comments (so more "helpful" to him?).

Ah - I see. Since I dont have a FB account I can’t see the full review or the comments beneath it.

I don't think they can delete reviews, but they have deleted posts on their page that were not complimentary.
The phone app does not appear to provide an option to re-sort the reviews. Annoying.

I don't have a FB account and read the whole thing. I also saw Bill's review.
I almost wish I did have a FB account because I had a few thing I would have said.
He called Simon a troll.
He said Simon wasn't a customer.
He posted parts of emails to support his position.
It appears as if he asked Chuck to have King sign signature pages on April, 3rd. Chuck told him, "Sorry, but no" late on the 4th. I see this as Chuck not giving a fuck about Vincent.
Tyne Hunter replied, an hour before the start of the sale, to an unknown previous email from Vincent asking for King's signature that "Stephen will not sign as a matter of principle, regardless of [your bullshit] the account, money, relationship." That reads to me that Vincent shit the bed.
What I'm not seeing is anything about The Outsiders tour, which was his excuse in the first place.
"One day you're going to figure out that everything they taught you was a lie."
I hope that this causes some publishers to stay clear of them. I mean they must have gotten permission from Lonely Roads to do Gwendy's right? I'm just shocked reading all of this and I didn't even order the book.
Fuck it!!! I say we flame the shit outta the fuckers!!! Nobody, but nobody does my boyz/girlz like that!!!!!! You'all feel me??? Peace be to ya, but I gotta do ya!!!!! lol
Get in there and "Like" all the comments by our FFF (Fellow Forum Folks) and let 'em have it in the comments section!!!! These guys don't deserve to "make a living" in this racket!!!! So load up those flamethrowers!!!!
