In a position to buy a Lettered Regulators here soon... anyone know of any for sale?
Hey all. Some of you may remember me from being somewhat active on the boards a couple of years ago. Life is life and I haven't been as much at all the last two years, but I wanted to start my search here. I trust you guys implicitly (at least the ones I know from a few years ago) and I'd rather buy from here than eBay/Abe, etc.
I'm in a position to buy my first 1/1 Gunslinger... exciting and a very big deal for me. Far and away, my largest King purchase. That being said, I'm willing and able to pay fair market value for the book and am looking for a copy with a better than good dust jacket. Reasonable free from tears etc. Not perfect by any means, but you know... good. lol. I want it to look nice on my shelf! I'll know it when I see it.
Anyone selling? DM and/or point me to pics if so!
Cheers.
He said he bought it at Half Price Books. He didn't claim to have gotten it at half of the issue price. I wish we had one of those stores in my town. The times I have been to them in other cities they have a "rare book" shelf that has pricier books at collector prices. The usual run-of-the-mill books are sold at half the issue price. Someone correct me if I am wrong. I haven't been to one in quite some time.
Damn, I don't think you paid too much at all. For that kind of condition, 700 seems like a bargain considering what they've been going for in the last year anyway. Some have been selling in pretty crappy jackets with sun faded spines for that price and more. Nice grab.
Impressive that your HPB had that copy. The one near me rarely has good finds like that.
You are correct. The one here in Austin is the second biggest (Behind the flagship Dallas Store) and we have an entire back room of the store called the collectibles section. It has everything from Signed Books and first editions to rare board games, records, and even rare adult magazines I believe
Wow! That is a great find, Oy! Congrats indeed. Sadly, the nearest HPB from me is a state and a half away from me.
Well, if anyone knows of anything even close to that condition around that price range, do let me know!
Looks like HPB now has more of their rare inventory online. I see a signed Insomnia and a 2nd edition Gunslinger (dust jacket is rough).

Looking for a Prime Evil.... fell asleep last night and a fine copy went for $219.. I was 207 I think! Darn:( Anyone?
IMO....that copy that ended last night at $219 went for exactly what it's worth because it has a scratch on the leather of the book. One picture shows it, the other sort of shows it.
It's a beautiful book of course. With that said, I wouldn't ever let my copy go for under $325+. Again, JMO

This guy normally will work out a deal if you are interested:

Start with $200 and go from there.
Good Luck Kris
