Gosh I'm sure this question was asked a dozen times already and I apologize in advance - but I'm in the market for a set of the CD Carrie, SL, The Shining, and while I know Night Shift isn't in hand yet, for someone to have a "matching set" do the rights get transferred with the last book? Asking before I pull any triggers.
Cemetery Dance does not do rights on a book unfortunately. So you can have matching numbers on all four current DD books and means nothing to them.

That is a bit harsh, and incorrect. CD does a great job or trying to match numbers/letters for a buyer. There may be no declared "rights" for secondary or tertiary buyers, but if requested. CD will do everything they can to accommodate the customer.Cemetery Dance does not do rights on a book unfortunately.

That statement is true. This statement is not:
In fact I will go further than that and say that no individual purchaser has any 'legal' rights to receive a matching designation. Most smaller publishers will go to great lengths to ensure you have a matching number or letter but are under no legal obligation to do so.
Even Suntup - who's extensive matching process I am intimately familiar with (and it is waaay more complex than you could possibly imagine) will only 'try' to match your previous designation. Again there is no legal requirement for Paul to do this, just good customer service.
"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
Verry helpful. I'm late to the game of buying the CD DD books - and while I would prefer (and pay more for) a matching set, I don't want to go through the expense of buying the set (then negotiating for Night Shift) only to have the books and not be able to reserve the next one. If it's a matter of sending proof that I am in possession of the latest, great. But if it's a registration system (which it sounds as though it's not), then damn.That statement is true.

Given CDs organizational problems, suggesting that they deal with matching numbers for pedantic collectors is nothing short of sadistic. The perfect storm. At best, hope you will receive your CD book before dying of old age to avoid unnecessary grief.
I think if you have Carrie, ‘Salem’s Lot, and The Shining all the same number then you should be good with a request via email to Mindy for that number of Night Shift. Unless you’re a lifetime subscriber, CD doesn’t hold numbers. And if you own all the same number, then I doubt any one else will request that number because they won’t need to match the previous releases. If you know the number I’d move this convo to email with Mindy.Verry helpful.

Though I think you should be fine.
But what I think and what I know and reality are three very different things with very little overlap.

Generally speaking first dibs goes to whoever bought the previous book in the series. Now if that person happened to have sold off their whole set, but still has say Night Shift on order with a matching number request. Often we'll contact them to see if they still need the matching number. But there's another wrench in the works here, and that's retailers. They pretty much all get matching numbers and they continue to get those numbers (even though they sell their books). There's only a handful of times where I've pulled a number from a retailer, and they weren't happy about it. So we always do what we can, but we can make no promises. This all said, if you're looking for a full matching set, shoot me an email I might be able to hook you up (no promises though)
No. My statement is true. As far as a guarantee right now it means nothing. Not sure why "legality" came into the conversation but you are right that offering rights is good customer service.That statement is true. This statement is not:

I disagree. Your statement is wrong. CD has bent over backwards to match my number at times. If it meant nothing they wouldn't have bothered.

Having seen your previous posts, i realise the futility of trying to argue with you, but wrong is wrong. It's clearly not true as Dan has already attested to with his response. It DOES mean something to them, that is irrefutable.

And literally no one disagrees that there is no guarantee. They are saying they will try to match which means it does mean something to them even if they don’t guarantee it.It does not mean anything to them in regards to a guarantee.
