He has 0 feedback and will not show the copyright page too. I asked. NOR will he state where it was signed or how he got it.

It is good.

Had I seen it first I would have jumped on this.......without asking a single question.

Full disclosure. I bought it. She sent me the copyright page and it checked out. I think sig is real... book not the best but for $325 (what I got it for shipped) we SHALL see. IF legit... I think it is a SCORE. If not, I start the bullshit process of getting my damm $$ back. lol

Well Kris......we know the signature is legit....it comes with a COA after all :lol1:........

Congrats.....and I hate you.

LOL sorry brother... for what it is worth.. I still 'heart' you:) haha

Well, I am not a signature expert, and rarely ever offer my opinion, but, I am wondering about something. It looks like a newer signature, and I thought king doesn't like to sign Rage, or am I wrong?

He sighed RF’s a couple years back... so not entirely true.

King has stopped the publication of this book.

I am aware of him signing a copy five years ago.

He signed one in DC at the George Mason event in 2011

He has signed a copy for me a few back, as "Stephen King aka Richard Bachman", I think it depends

That's another stolen listing. Signed book is still available here:

Oh damn - good eye. Explains the weird cropping.

That sucks :frown2:

Well Kris......looks like you took a bullet for us.......condolences......odds are you will be able to get your money back after jumping through a few hoops.

Like I said....If I had seen it first I would have done the same.

EDIT....I see the original listing has been pulled.

I’ve been refunded full amount. The idiot provided a fake tracking number so eBay just gave it back to me. Easy!

I initially asked him to let me buy the dustjacket & custom case only, without the book. He wouldn't sell them separately; I had to buy the book also.

I have pictures of both copies of the books together, and I'm also selling his copy without the book jacket on eBay now as well.

I have been sent a barrage of cuckoo messages, name calling, and threats over this. If anyone had taken one second to ask me about this, I could have explained why I bought his copy before I sold mine, and proven with pictures before all of this started.

It is an authentic, hand-signed Stephen King book. It's an extremely rare and valuable part of a large collection that I'm selling for very personal and painful reasons. To have people slander me and my auction over their own preconceived misconception is unfair. It's fine if you don't like my items, or doubt the veracity, but harassing me on eBay and swearing at me and calling me names shouldn't be acceptable from this community.

Who cares??? The book your selling is fake as shit. You are being called out because you are trying to pass off something that is totally not real to rip someone that may not know off.... So yes... you sir... are a douche.

---

Looks like he's going to keep up with these fake signed by himself books. He has a Doctor Sleep that doesn't even come close to matching signatures from the tour, it does however match his pathetic attempt he made on the Carrie first edition. It's so sad to think some fan/collector not knowing anything gave this ass over $1.5k for that Carrie which had been doctored and not signed by Mr. King.

I wish someone would stop this guy. He is a total piece of shit.

If enough members report the item as fake (I did), ebay will at least stop the auction.

I had over 45 (last count) from my post on the FB group say they reported that Carrie... and it sold. WTF. Waste of time I think reporting it unless seller takes it down:(

I'm a bit surprised that 45+ didn't get it pulled. That is a shame.

I thought THIS ONE was worth sharing just for the description:
This is a nice copy. Inscribed,signed, and dated in the year of publication on the title page. The DJ is unclipped, fine, and protected in mylar.Strong binding and clean of any ownership markings. The cloth spine is nice. The boards have a couple of gentle bumps. The signature is a slight variant from most others I have handled, though I find the "Best wishes" and the structure of the date 11/16/93 to be spot on. In any case, I guarantee the authenticity for life - and I have priced it accordingly.

'a slight variant from most others I have handled...' Ha! and it even has a bid. Very sad.

That's just sad. He certainly put in the effort with the description though.

Same seller has this beauty (another variant no doubt.)

King signed that one on a roller coaster.

I just went through their sold list, and in the past couple of months they have sold almost $2,000 in King stinkers alone.
Shameful.
