Grant W&G giveaway!!!

[Brice]

Ok, I've thought long and hard on this. I have a Grant hardcover of Wizard and Glass. It is not in the best collectable condition. It needs a new dustjacket (I believe you can still get one from Grant really cheap) due to minor shelfwear and rubbing against other books when it's been pulled out. I bought it when it first came out and had no idea of it's value. It's been my reading copy...and as it's my only copy it's been read many times. Aside from the rubbing/shelfwear on the dustjacket there is some dirt (quite possibly can be cleaned) on the outer page edges and I am a smoker. And I HAVE smoked while reading it. With that said, I have a dilemma...I need a new copy and know myself well enough to know I won't buy another as long as I have one, SO someone here must help me by taking this book from me. Thank You! :D


Ok, now the rules:

1.You MUST need it (not already have the Grant HC edition).

2. You MUST want it.

3. You MUST love it.

4. You MUST NOT sell it.

5. You MUST have no less than 50 posts (off topic posts do not count).

6. You MUST do a giveaway soon after (doesn't matter big or small).

7. You MUST enter via PM.

Please DO enter the drawing irregardless of where in the world you are. Shipping is free. You have until the last day of February to enter. It will not ship till sometime in March. I think that's everything. :unsure:

[Darkthoughts]

Cooool :wub:

[Brice]

Cooool :wub:

:huglove:

I assume this means you are interested???

[Spencer]

excellent idea Brice! I have the HC, so I'm not in the drawing, but I know how hard it is to find one. I was lucky enough to get it through a bookstore special order when it came out. Someone will be very lucky to have this!

I just wandered into my local Waldenbooks and found it on the shelf. I was thrilled as I didn't even know he was working on it actively (I had never been on the internet back in those days for more than a couple minutes and even then only once or twice in the early nineties). It was just one great big motherfuckin' surprise.

[Ari_Racing]

Congratulations!!!
I already own the book so I'm out, but this is a great giveaway!!

[Brice]

Thank you Ariel! :)

[Brice]

Sorry! :(

[Storyslinger]

:) NO big deal.

[Brice]

At least you have one. :dance:

[Aaron]

Awesome, Brice!

I'm totally putting in for this. All I have is the Viking edition. :cowboy:

[Brice]

Much luck to you Aaron! :)


After this is gone I won't even have a paperback copy until I get a new HC. Yes, I'm reading it now also...kinda' saying goodbye to it properly. :D

[John Blaze]

thanks quid, this is an awesome giveaway!

[Brice]

Hey, it's my pleasure man and thank you!

[Letti]

I love the "you must make another giveaway part". It's very foxy and good. Great idea.

But next time please giveaway yourself, Brice. :wub: That would be the best.

But, I'm not sure there'd be entrants dear. :unsure:

I think I will add one more requirement: The winner must post a picture of themself with their new book. :D I like this rule.

[Brice]

[Patrick]

Excellent giveaway, Brice. The only hardcover I have of this book is the S/L so I suppose that disqualifies me. Good luck, everyone!

[John Blaze]

showoff! :P

[MonteGss]

This is a cool giveaway and but alas, I am not qualified.


You rule sai Brice!

[Brice]

Thank you guys! :D


Patrick you will however qualify if you mail your S/L to me now. :rofl:

Why are you not qualified Monte? Do you already have it?

[MonteGss]

No, because I can't commit to having a giveaway shortly after. I don't have any King books I don't need. I want to have one and will, someday when I have something cool and worthy. :)

[John Blaze]

it doesn't have to be a book, does it?

you can give away your toaster..or a microwave. I can use a good microwave....

[Letti]

Or you can give away yourself.

[MonteGss]

Nah, no microwave. I would want a Stephen King/Dark Tower themed giveaway. ;)

[Brice]

Nah, no microwave. I would want a Stephen King/Dark Tower themed giveaway. ;)

Well, even if you were to buy something off ebay or from a used bookstore you would qualify, but that's entirely up to you though. Time is winding down so you'll have to decide soon.

[MonteGss]

You know what Brice, I just thought of something I can give in a potential giveaway. Please do count me in! Thanks!

[Brice]

You are in. :D

[Erin]

If I win, I'm demanding that Brice mail himself along with the book. :evil:

[Brice]

:rofl: Yes, I'm sure it is Bruno..

[John Blaze]

[Brice]

If I win, I'm demanding that Brice mail himself along with the book. :evil:

I would love to enter but I try to limit my hardcover copies... there's only so many I can hide in my apartment so they don't get eaten by the hardcover-carnivorous-cat-children I have living with me..

Well, you'd be welcome to enter, but it's definitely one to be sure to keep out of their reach. It's not a cheap or easy to replace book. It is up to you.

[John Blaze]

you can enter and give it to me if you win.....

:D

[Brice]

Hey, I just noticed there isn't a rule against me entering. :lol:

[Mr. Rabbit Trick]

Hey, I just noticed there isn't a rule against me entering. :lol:

There is now!

[Brice]

Hey, I just noticed there isn't a rule against me entering. :lol:

Hey! >< Wait! I thought we got to make the rules for our own giveaways.

[John Blaze]

new rule, only JohnBlaze can win giveaways. :D

[Brice]

Ok, but you know what they say about rules being made to be broken, right?

[John Blaze]

you watch yourself, I'll get the rule police on your ass!

[Brice]

...and the winner is:
