    They don't show up all that often -- for whatever reason. I last saw one about 12-15 months ago on ABE. It went for $600 or $650. Listed in all-around Fine condition and sold. I think that might...

    This is what is called a "bubble;" coupled with the hysteria from the "new" SK collectors believing that this market is normal and believing everything they are told in various internet echo...

    OK, in the last 3 weeks there have been a handful of "surprisingly high" amounts paid for books that, in my opinion, are not impossible to find. Three numbered Firestarters went for $2,700 to...
  4. Please review your comments on the discussion...

    The debate rages on... I talked to a few people that got 2nd's there. I have not talked to any attendee that got a 1st (personally). Playing devils advocate here... some might have grabbed the book...

    I have Stanley Wiater's wife's copy of The Girl Who Loved Tom Gordon and it is a 1st/1st. I also have her complete set of The New Lieutenant's Rap. There were both 1st and 2nd printings at that...
  6. Because of its scarcity, I'd need to see pictures...

    Because of its scarcity, I'd need to see pictures before I'd venture a guess on a value. An early signature (1982 and earlier) with an all-around VG rating could fetch >$5K to a serious collector. ...
  7. Absolutely agree that early UK editions are...

    I am of the opinion that the earlier UK editions, such as the Doubleday equivalents, and others (Danse Macabre, Firestarter, Cujo, etc.) are considered desirable as well as their US counterparts....
  8. These are referred to as PC copies for no other...

    These are referred to as PC copies for no other reason than they are not numbered or not a roman numeral. The 4 copies were just signed extra copies that Jerad had. Since I had 2 of the 4 I called...
  9. Beautiful book! There are only 4 copies of this...

    Beautiful book! There are only 4 copies of this version of the book. I owned 2 of them at one time but traded or sold them outright through Betts (David). I'd say the buyer got a decent deal. I...
  10. Thanks, Alan. I appreciate the information. I...

    Thanks, Alan. I appreciate the information.

    I disagree that the information is useless as a price guide. Looking at pure prices with everything else constant, you can develop what I call a...

    Alan -- How many signed Viking F/F (or close) Misery's has David sold over the last decade? Thanks,

    John

    Yeah, he posted many pictures of many rare SK-related items on this site.
  13. Fine is not perfect...and I do not believe that...

    Fine is not perfect...and I do not believe that there aren't any F/F copies remaining. So if you're looking for a VG/VG unsigned copy, I believe that $2K-$3K would be what you'd end up paying. I...
  14. Kris, Condition -- F/F or lower? Signed or...

    Kris,

    Condition -- F/F or lower? Signed or unsigned...or both? A UK Carrie is the most difficult non-limited SK book I've ever tried to obtain. It's even more difficult than a UK Night Shift --...
  15. With "A clean copy" meaning F/F, I would say a...

    With "A clean copy" meaning F/F, I would say a copy like that would fetch northward of $600. More if you have the early state DJ with 1982 on the back. They are hard to find with legitimate...
  16. Sorry that I missed this conversation a month...

    Sorry that I missed this conversation a month ago. A red Roman numeral SL is a rare breed. I owned both I and IV. When I used David as an intermediary to facilitate the books and money in exchange...
  17. Yes, very hard to come by! You'll be hard...

    Fine copies are very hard to come by. I think you’re looking at ~ $1,000[/QUOTE]

    Yes, very hard to come by! You'll be hard pressed to find a F/F UK Night Shift for less than $2K. If you do find...

    Then you'll be called CD, lol! Just kidding folks.
  19. A long time ago, and on another site, I saw a...

    A long time ago, and on another site, I saw a listing of the latest numbers known (at that time) for the various signature dates. Not sure where that was or if it still exists. It was a neat point...

    You will get an amazing bargain if you get it at $1K. See if you can buy it in a few installments...GOOD LUCK!
