    Default Dark Tower Same-Number Sets: Wanted page !

    Hi Folks,

    according to the Dark Tower Same-Number Sets: Who owns them? Topic,
    I asked myself for weeks now, why we do not have a place where we collect the searching members also.


    I mean, getting a full # Set of the Dark Tower is (if you do not have the luck or founds to buy it complete, or have been one of the DT1 owners)
    a long and exiting journey, but you often need any little peace of information that you might get.


    Thats why i want to get the Grandt "Wanted page" back online, and give everybody the chance to place the # s/he is searching for here in this topic.
    I will complete it as a list according to the owners page.

    One note: To be on the list doesn't mean anything else but: somebody who owns a # will have the chance to find you.

    If more then one member searches for the same #, i will just add both so that they can find a deal. There is no demand regarding exclusivity, it is just informal.

    I know we have the search page, but this is changing fast, and you have no chance to search for a # as the term is to short, and people write it different.
    Thats why i see a demand for this list ;D

    If you are searching for a certain # drop me a PM or post here in this topic!
    Hope you will all be able to find what you need!


    Inspired from Merlin, i will add DTs that you are holding in a second list. For trade or not, it will tell the people where the # is.

    This seems like a pretty good idea, though since I only own 1 TDT S/L (TDT V, #1131) I will be little help, but I hope it helps some members in their quest.

    Hey Merlin,

    thanks for your addition, as i am unsure if you are actually searching for the other books your idea inspired a second list with books "i hold" (without being on the trip to complete)
    this is a great addition, as anybody who might have the other ones can get in contact with you (or not) or whatever.

    Thanks for this input!

    IF i added you to the holding list by error , i will change this !
    And i hope everybody else will go to the shelves now, and get my their numbers ;D

    I am holding DT III LE #889 & DT IV-VII, WTTK, LSOE LE #625, WTTK UK LE #153

    I am searching for DT LE #153 for all Grant books.

    I was thinking, if one were completely crazy about having a definitive matching DT signed set then it would also have the UK Wizard & Glass, The Gunslinger and The Drawing of the Three S/L audio sets plus the Wind Through the Keyhole UK S/L which is only 200 copies. That would mean there could only be 200 possible matching sets.

    I actually know who needs Gunslinger #196 to complete a full number set (he's on this site), and he know's it's available to him. All he has to do is pull the trigger.
    What is he waiting for? I would even give you a deposit to hold it... if the reason was not enough cash. I think (for me) the holy grail of collecting King is a matching set... Cool of you to hold onto it man!

    Thanks for adding me.

    You can also add that I have #602 TWTTK and would be happy to sell/trade it if someone is looking for it.

    I'd also probably be interested in any other S/L #379s.

    Of course. Yes. I only added the UK book to show my reasoning for wanting the #153 for the Grant books.

    Seeking ANY Dark Tower (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII) # 171

    Also Seeking Dark Tower Books # 203 (Paying Layaway on V & VI but I don't have them in hand yet)

    I OWN LSoE and TWTtK # 171 and plan on trying to complete this numbered set (or at least II-TWTtK)
    I also OWN a PC DT:VII

    Might never be able to afford a DT:I Gunslinger S/N LE and it will probably be the last book I go for.
    More likely I will attempt to get a fine/fine 1st edition and get it signed in person by Sai King.
    I DO plan on completing a set from II-TWTtK.
    I'd be a candidate as a prospective buyer for a "bargain" copy of I (eventually)

    I also am looking for ANY King S/N LE # 171 (especially Doctor Sleep to match my copy of the Shining)
    Wanted
    CD Carrie Portfolio 719
    Dark Tower S/N LE's 171 or 203
    ANY Stephen King S/N LE #171 or 719

    A Storm of Swords #218 or 346
    Ancillary Justice #455
    American Gods (+ SC Reader copy) #624

    Michael Whelan original art
    DT VII: Michael Whelan Remarque

    I have TWTTK (2012) which came out after LSOE (2009).

    Should read this:

    Divemaster is a good man.

    If you're interested, here is the story of how the rest of the set came together. I posted this a couple years ago in the matching number set thread (with a couple minor edits):

    June 2011: LSOE, LSOE AE - John Hanic. He bought them on eBay in order to secure the right to purchase TWITKH. I bought another set specifically to trade with John, so he could still get TWITKH.

    Oct 2011: I can't attend the King reception and signing at Fall of the Books back East, so Ralph Mulleins takes my 1st/1st of The Gunslinger to the signing.

    Nov 2011: DTIV UK (not really necessary for a complete set) - In January 2011 I just missed this at Betts - saw one of those SOLD signs that David puts out before removing items from the site. I contacted David, but it was too late. He had just shipped it out to a buyer in Australia. Flash forward ten months: Recently while perusing the forum over at Cemetery Dance, I ran across a photo of the book in someone's collection thread. I contacted the owner and we worked a straight across trade. He was not a member here at TDT at the time, but he is now. Thanks, Grant (Bad Penny)!

    Dec 2011: DT V, VI, VII: Simon had recently purchased these at a Heritage auction I missed. He posted here at TDT looking for the others. We worked out a sale/purchase.

    Here is the set, including my signed (but not S/L) 1st/1st edition of DTI:


    (Note: I also have #196 of TWTTKH, but it was not yet released at the time of this photo.)

    This set is especially meaningful to me because of all the collector friends that have assisted with trades or sales to help me put this together.

    Thanks, Bill. I agree with you, due to the kindness of other collectors.

    Here is a more recent photo.
    Spoiler:


    The UK S/L of TWTTKH in the photo is #121.
    I'd like to trade it for #196 if that copy ever shows itself.

    Edit: I just remembered that this thread is not for UK Dark Tower limited editions.

    You are welcome and that is why it is a "Great Story". Because of the "Family nature" of this collecting community. Everyone helps each other, provides funds for charities and are capable of helping fellow members in tough times. This IS the best internet community on the World Wide Web, hands down!!!! Folks here are simply AMAZING!!!!
