Thanks guys.

ps can we get a thank-you plug-in (if thats the right term lol) for the site?.

[gsvec]

You mean like these guys?

[lophophoras]

I'm another one who can't see myself getting a 1st Gunslinger, though that doesn't bother me as I far prefer the cover of the 3rd printing. Maybe I could get a 2nd one day though, how much do they usually fetch?.

I paid about $175 for a mint Gunslinger 2nd but I have no idea if this is cheap, expensive, or average.

I think I paid $255 for a mint copy in a slipcase back in 2004/05.

[Cloysterpete]

You mean like these guys?

While those little smiley guys are cool I mean like on some boards (sk.com for example) you click a button to thank someone. Then it leaves a message under that post....thanked by cloysterpete. Don't know if it's possible with this forum software though?!?. Not my area of expertise lol.

[Bev Vincent]

Jordan added it as a feature to the skmb, which runs the same program, I believe.

Jordan added it as a feature to the skmb, which runs the same program, I believe.

Judging by the numbers the sk.com board is a newer bit of software, vbulletin 3.8.4 compared to 3.7.2 here. Hopefully the feature is possible on version 3.7.2.

ps
Do I sound like I know what i'm talking about lol

Anyone have a fine condition trade edition white lettered dustjacket they want to sell or trade me for one of my slightly messed up ones, maybe off of a reading copy? I will even pay you a reasonable sum for it along with the trade. I have 2 copies, one came from amazon and the book and jacket suffered a good hard corner smash (going to be a reading copy) the other is a signed copy i picked up (got it for $109 shipped) but it just arrived packed very poorly, loose in a box with some newspaper stuffed around it, the book survived intact but the jacket edges are all rolled over and it is torn where it wraps into the book.

So would like a nice one for my signed copy !!
please help !!
Thanks
Rusty

Wouldn't it be almost easier to walk into a local retailer and buy the book?
I've seen nice copies-all discounted 20%-40% off retail at B&N, Costco, Walmart, Target etc.
Walk in, hand over ~$20. Done. No shipping, no surprises, no hassle.

I am looking for a decent condition Grant 1st of The Waste Lands and also looking for the ARC/prooof of the same. Please PM me if you have one and how much you are looking to get for it.

Thanks,

Looking for a set of the Plume "Collector's Edition" trade paperbacks.... ala this:
[IMG]

Theres Carrie, 'Salem's Lot, The Shining, The Dead Zone, Firestarter and Cujo. (the last three don't have the same cover design as the first three) I know these aren't really worth anything, but I'm looking to snag 'Salem's Lot, The Dead Zone, Firestarter and Cujo if anyone's got extras!

Did you find these? If not I have the set of 6 that I'd be willing to sell/trade. They are all 1st, never cracked open.

Looking for the UK S/L Desperation/Regulators set with signed bookplate.

[ChristineB]

I am in need of a 1/1 of the Revised edition of The Gunslinger. Willing to pay up to $60, hopefully that is a reasonable price.

I am finally going to tackle this series and wish to start with the revised GS since I have yet to read it, have read the first edition a couple times now.

[Randall Flagg]

Christine, I'm moving this post to the King items wanted thread.

[ChristineB]

Thanks Randall. Those darn blond roots again.

I'm looking for a Pet Semetary edition of Earl the Flat Cat if anyone has one/spots on online...I'd like to put it in the baby's room

I saw one awhile back and made the mistake of not bidding on it...now I can't seem to find them (plenty of regular everyday Flat Cats...just not the Pet Semetery ones) and I'd like to get my little one started on the right track early \



Edit: anyone have an idea of what a fair price for this item might be? I admit I have no idea, and since I can't comapre list prices, I'm a little lost.

Really I think the best thing is to just to decide roughly what you're willing to spend. I haven't seen any up for auction. Honestly I've been wanting one for awhile myself. As for worth though...??? It's kinda' hard to say since they don't show up anywhere much, so my opinion is whatever amount you can be happy with putting towards it is it's precise worth. I know you were probably wanting something more specific, but I wouldn't have an idea even of what others would be willing to pay for one.

[Ves'Ka Gan]

Yeah, I'll have to think on it...I'm not sure how much it's worth to me, to be honest.

[Tito_Villa]

Not sure if this is the right place but im looking for a copy of the US ARC of Joe Hills new novel Horns. I have the Uk version and im willing to trade or buy it outright. PM me!!!

[Lowmen45]

Hi, I need a hardcover of the Gunslinger, and of the Wastelands. I owne all the audio formats, and all the rest in Hardcover, but am missing these two. Anyone got any Idea on a place besides amazon I could find an older edidtion of these two, for less than a million dollars a book *sarcasm*. The reason I ask is because I see people raping others for these books on ebay. I got a copy of the reprint *Drawing of the three* the second print of the first edition, with same cover as first, for 25$. I later went to ebay and saw it for over 300$. I just want a reasonable deal, and dont want to be taken advantage of. I love the Grant ed. of the Wasteland, with the plaster man on the cover.
