thanks elscorcho526. If I hear any more idiotic banter from Simon & Sch I will honestly just write to King & ask him to sign a post-it or something and mail it to me.

Dad struck out ... 1 for 3.
Question for anybody that has received the S/L already..........
WAS IT WRAPPED/PACKAGED GOOD?
AKC
I submitted two e-mails to the lottery. The personal failed but the work address came through. I now wait for further instructions which will arrive by the end of the day Friday. I'm getting it, but this one feels tainted. Just looking forward to IT and WTTK....
I also submitted two entires.
One winner one loser.
Hi. I usually just lurk, but I'm too pissed. Both my entries failed. Nasty email just sent to S&S.
Just got this from amazon.co.uk re the signed edition I pre ordered through them:

I think they may be out of the loop a bit...
One lottery entry = fail for me
However my 75 copies from "hack-a-cart" day on their website last week are being shipped!
p.s. only 2 copies actually....mine and my girl's :P
p.p.s. i hope this one has the double fed tipped signed pages like my Under the Dome S/L with two pages signed by stephen king.....and one extra page more than anyone else's Under the Dome. haha! I bet that's what happened to the non-signed ones here. A misfeed that double filled someone else and neglected your non-signed-signed-limited. :(
Got a "Ha, ha, you suck" email, as did my girlfriend. Now, we just have one shot left, with her work email, which she will check tomorrow. Fingers crossed. :) Congrats to everyone that got one (or more) so far.

I tried 3 entries......all losers:mad:
Got my copy here today. Checked and made sure that there was a signature (although tearing through that shrinkwrap felt dirty). Anyways, it was very well packed and I am satisfied with the book itself. The only thing I don't like is the fact that the front is held together by the "Extra!" sticker and the DVD is enclosed in a sleeve in the back of the book that is also sealed. It would just feel wrong to pull the sticker off of the front and unseal the DVD from the back. What do you guys think?
Is the signed/limited the same size/dimensions as the US trade edition? I was considering ordering the slipcase from cemetery dancefor it.
My wife and I both received the losing email. It appears that the odds of winning were statistically very low! I am happy that i received my copy through the darktower hacking gate!
Received my UK facsimile signed edition from the UK. the wrap was torn. so i opened it! disk in the back taped/glued to the back.
1. No luck with the original S&S ordering clusterf**k.
2. Personal email lottery entry fail.
3. Work email lottery entry fail.
Three Time Loser!
Congratulations to those of you who made it through either the original opening day fiasco or via lottery entry and won one or more copies for yourself and family or friends.
Not feeling a whole lot of love at the moment for those who ended up with multiple copies and are now looking to maximize profit. But that goes with the territory, I'll get over it.
three entries....
three losers :pullhair:
im so glad i was able to order one through the hack-a-cart :P
hope it arives safely and with a signature page.......?
Hey all! It's been a long time since I've popped in. I wanted to see if there was anyone here that got the "Congratulations" email (which I see some did and didn't).
I got a congratulation email today and I originally thought that it was just a signed version. With me always being on the road I really didn't take notice that it was the signed limited edition. I was lucky that when I was at the customers site they allowed me a few moments to complete the signup page. So it was a complete surprise when I got the congratulations email today and read it fully! So stoked! I missed him both in Boston and in Sarasota by mere days as I had to move on to the next site! So this is awesome for me!
It's not even so much posterity. I just don't think it will look nearly as good with the DVD envelope unsealed. The thing is actually bound into the back of the book, and although there's a perforartion where it can be torn out, it would leave behind a half inch band still attached to the book, which wouldn't look good at all. Either way, I think I'm just going to leave the thing as is. Hopefully there will be some way to view the DVD online.
My fourth entry was not chosen, so only 1 for 4. Sorry I couldn't help anybody else here get a copy; looking at the results so far I think I was lucky to get even one.
