Been in their book club multiple times and never disappointed. At $14 a book, for a signed limited edition, it's a no brainer.

As did I. Was thinking I'd pass on this club (I've joined every one CD has offered over the last year), but those marketing emails the CD folks send will wear you down! Next one will be 'Just 5 memberships left!!! Hurry, you idiot!!'
And they're probably right. I'd probably feel like an idiot in a few months when everyone's getting their 7 S/L's for $100 bucks, and there's several very cool ones in there.
What intrigued me the most, and really gets credit for convincing me to pull the trigger is that 6 of the 7 books are completely unannounced. That means with one exception, these will NOT be editions CD has already announced that I intentionally skipped, or a double of something I've already bought.
I have no doubt that it is the smart move, but as i have mentioned elswhere (i think) for me $100 is huge.Originally Posted by richardsrarebooks
It is with the utmost repect and no small amount of jealosy for everyone here that i must note that some people here will drop on one S/L what my wife and i make in an entire month combined! I'm not whining (i don't think), just the simple reality of my position right now.
That being said, I'm glad i did this and very excited to see what arrives!!!
Thanks everyone, and CD!!

I'm looking forward to them as well, and very excited to see what the SK relate item will be. My suspicion is that it may be perhaps Bev Vincent's or Robin Furth's excellent Dark Tower editions, but that is an utter guess. Could conceivably be a Salem's Gift, but doubt it since they aren't signed. Or maybe we'l be COMPLETELY surprised and it will be something entirely off of our radar! Any other guesses?
Such a great deal when $14.00 get's you a new paperback or two perhaps.

Just a guess but I think the 'Something special for King fans' will be a book by Kevin Quigley.

Well, you get the idea....
Still waiting for the Carrie portfolio though. Has been awhile since I ordered it.

Yeah - I was just thinking about that today. When they heck are they supposed to be out?
This was my thought as well.
Quick question--how long does it take to get a gift certificate that I ordered from CD? Not being impatient, I just forget things after awhile...
I don't think it takes that long. If you haven't gotten yours I'd email Mindy about it.
. Mine came by email immediately after ordering!
... or Richard Chizmar. Maybe he'll bind the Revisited essays.Just a guess but I think the 'Something special for King fans' will be a book by Kevin Quigley.

I ordered a gift card in I think May or June and STILL have not received it! It was the promo that gave you $50 for $50... did others not get this yet either?I don't think it takes that long. If you haven't gotten yours I'd email Mindy about it.

Hmmm...I got a confirmation immediately, but no code. I hate to bother Mindy since she's always to busy...perhaps I'll give it a couple more days. Thanks guys!. Mine came by email immediately after ordering!
Brian, thanks a lot for taking care of the Dark Advent issue. You're the man, man.
It's pretty much sent within seconds of the order completing, so if you didn't receive an email with your Gift Certificate code, just drop Mindy a line and she'll look it up for you! The emails sometimes get snagged in ISP's spam filters.

We'll more than likely do that, but we're a year (or two) away from reaching the endzone on that one, and King keeps moving the goalposts.

Alrighty, I'll bug Mindy. Thanks Brian.It's pretty much sent within seconds of the order completing, so if you didn't receive an email with your Gift Certificate code, just drop Mindy a line and she'll look it up for you! The emails sometimes get snagged in ISP's spam filters.

I agree, though we haven't yet seen the Carrie Portfolio, I love the idea that each book would have it's own set, along with original artwork opportunities, I'm becoming hooked on them!Every book commands one... part of the set!

Do they request that you don't share it? If so maybe you can message me. I am in that book club thing but never got a list.
