    I think he said in the email he didn't want people sharing this link yet...

    Jared has OK’d the link now so feel free to repost or update
    "A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

    It's been a while coming -- I turned in the introduction in April 2019 and signed the limitation pages in October of the same year.

    Sometimes I'm just lucky. I happened to be checking email when Jerad's message dropped yesterday and jumped right on the site to order. Wasn't even tracking this one, I'm super happy to snag a signed/slipcased copy!
    Alright, we'll call it a draw.

    After the signed edition has already sold out at the $260 price point? That would be an insult to Jerad as he could have charged much more for that version with an SK signature.

    Insult? How so? If Jerad and King did this much like the Full Throttle release? I am at a loss what you mean....

    The book is shipping in a month. It's highly unlikely anything could change on that schedule.

    Yeah prob. Might be just my spidey sense tingling... Just cannot figure why King would give Jerad a S/L after trashing him without signing a copy? Makes me think...

    Only if we walk to King's house carrying the copy of the book to be signed!

    I wonder how many folks buy the book under the false impression King is signing it. The first impression of a book advertised as "signed" is that it is signed by the author. Never liked that characterization when someone else is signing it. Anyone can theoretically sign a book but that doesn't make it a signed book. Having to read the fine print to figure this out only makes it slightly better.

    "Artists signed slipcased edition. $260." is above the order button.

    The newsletter very clearly stated that the book isn't signed by King. It's the only sentence in bold. The order page states it's not signed by King three times.

    I'm sure the dummy who bought a $280 book without reading what they're buying will feel right as rain after selling it for 3x the cost.

    But maybe it's signed by Richard Bachman.. Jerod did put the word "not" in italics

    But I thought Bachman died from pseudonym cancer in 1985.
    Maybe Jerod has some old tip-sheets he signed.
    I'm sure if there is intelligent life somewhere out there in the universe, they are wise enough to stay away from us.

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding but wouldn't a SK signed limited be priced higher than $260? If so, why should Jared forgo the additional revenue the signature would generate to the flippers? As for the Full Throttle comparison, wasn't that for the lettered edition? I'm not aware of a lettered Long Walk so unless Jerad has something up his sleeve ...

    Regarding Throttle, it was indeed for the lettered.

    The price was high (but not crazy high at 1.5k) which was the reason why the book was strugging to sell and it took awhile to do so.
    If a King signature would have been known, it would have sold out right away.
    On the secondary market, the book was quickly selling at 3x the original price

    So yes, a Bachman signature would seem very unlikely given the price... but who knows?
