Sending out review copies is no guarantee of a review. However, places like PW and Kirkus and Booklist are long-lead sites -- they need copies long before other review venues like general magazines...
Could be Barry pulling another one of his scams.
Remember when he had only 1 copy of the Gauntlet proof available, and everyone who bid "won" one?
Not being in the industry, I suppose there are reviews by Publishers Weekly and Booklist that I can't see, but I'd love to see even a snippet of a review from a'Trade Reviewer'.
Strictly gut...
What will happen is this:
The interview states 4 copies. A few week later we learn that it was "no more than 20".
So assuming there are 20 copies, in a year or two we will all get an email...
It took a Canadian to spot it. Well done Eric.

I think Bob was also right.
UK Black House sampler?
I think this time around it went for $1100 or so.

I've bought three books from Bob in the past! :thumbsup:
I think it comes down to this: if you need the money, you need the money and no one can tell you otherwise.
If not, then I think its obvious that you preserve the piece of King history, especially...

Ahhh... that makes more sense. Is it yours now, Bob?

My bid of $800 never even reached the reserve.[/QUOTE]
Yikes. I wonder what its actually worth, especially in that condition.

I think its one of those quagmires of the english language, where theres multiple meanings to multiple words and everyone might have a different opinion on the word.
To my knowledge theres...
I've had it explained to more times than I care to recall, and still can't give you a proper answer! Proof, ARC, Galley, etc, etc, etc all describe essentially the same thing. There is a difference...
Betts has one thats been for sale for quite a while. I think it was part of Chris' collection. Item # cc758, price $225.
