Thanks guys but the shipping cost is what is really killer getting them across the pond from what I saw on eBay. Probably will have to try my luck stateside first then cough up the dough for the one's I can't find here.

No doubt but at least you guys have given me a great benchmark to compare prices both here and in the U.K. so I can get the best bang for the buck or pound as it may be . I do appreciate that!
I too am on a first ed hunt after losing a truckload of books in a move last year. I've found UK postage to,be pretty good to Oz. The USA and Canada is heartbreaking. The exchange rate is a killer, but as stated above, the postage is sometimes twice the cost/value of the book. I'm trying to do 3-books at a time with each seller, combining post. Still expensive,but a more cost effective.
I've got most of the U.S 1st/1st except for some of the really high end ones. Found an eBayer here in the states and looks like his asking prices are about what I'd pay or less if I had to get 'em from the U.K. with the exchange rate, postage, and all. Love the U.K. cover art BTW. Most are way better than their U.S counterparts IMHO.
This is true and how I acquired a lot of my U.S 1st/1st. I hit multiple auctions of folks selling lots and ended up with several duplicates but not bad when the average price paid was $3 to $4 per book and in surprisingly great shape. I'll definitely looking into it. Thanks!

What's the value of a 1st printing of The Talisman, signed only by Straub?

I thought about that one as well. It is in brand new condition by the description...of that is true than it's worth the extra bit of money IMO. I paid over and above for a mint condition of IT because they are so hard to find these days.

What tempts me about that copy of The Talisman is that I have a Straub signed copy of Black House as well. Not very fancy, but would still make a nice set.
Is The Talisman a first edition though? Why does VJ mention First Edition Thus in his listing.
Just curious.
