Nothing to do with the last few posts.....got my shipping notice for the final grab bag of 2019. I ordered two and got two tracking numbers. That's a first for me. Just thought folks would be interested. No complaints, I love your grab bags.

Hey Brian - I know I’ve been pretty critical of CD lately and I know you guys take a lot of flack but please don’t take this the wrong way. I think a lot of old time members here and newer members like myself are seeing a return to the dark days of 2007-2008 with SOD. All the PR and goodwill you all show here is certainly helping CD’s case but the delays spanning multiple years are really piling up again. We get there are issues with printers and other delays but delays spanning into 4-6 years are really killing us. We are paying A LOT of money up front for books we aren’t getting for years and the anger is starting to boil over a bit. I know you probably are not in a position to accept Payless pre-orders but gosh, I have to believe that would help CD’s credibility and reputation at this point.
Strangely, I take nothing you've posted lately in the wrong way! I agree with your feedback, and I fully see (and agree with!) the points you and some other collectors have raised about the current backlog.
From my conversations with Richard, I think 2020 is going to see a lot of catching up now that we've gotten rolling with our new printers and reconnected with one we hadn't used in a while whose main focus will be a particular line of books to keep them rolling along.
I definitely hear you about your concerns and understand where you're coming from, and I think we all agree that a smoother running operation would benefit us AND our collectors greatly. That's a goal we're pushing for. It would certainly make everyone's lives easier!
I know you know this, but always feel free to ping me if there's anything I can do to help you. And if you have a concern you want to bring to my attention or ask about, and you don't want to post it here, PLEASE do email me. I'll find out what I can, and get back to you as soon as I can.

Great to hear.....very excited!
To the person who left the feedback with a concern you have, I should have mentioned, please feel free to email or PM me if you want. I take your concerns seriously, and there are no repercussions with sharing "bad news" with me. I can leave your name out of any feedback I send around the office, if you just want to bring something to my attention in a general sense. (Compared to, say, a specific problem with your order that needs fixed, etc.) Thank you!

Did CD produce a slipcase for the trade edition of Strange Weather?

For those who were concerned there might not be movement on THE STAND while we wait on NIGHT SHIFT to be printed, I did want to share this... I think it's going to be a good looking design!
I'll have a lot more news to share on this one in a few months. Thanks again for your patience.
Best,

The contents of my CD grab bag if anyone's interested:
https://pbs.twimg.com/media/EOLAeS6X...name=4096x4096
Flight or Fright was the only one I had (and mine was second printing, and this is first, so that's cool). Any recommendations from that pile on what I should read?
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHhh
The contents of my CD grab bag that I opened today stunned me.
I was definitely not expecting the Rosemary's Baby...my jaw dropped. I would have been happy with everything else without that. Nice to get a reader copy of Cardinal Black so I don't have to handle the S/L. I missed the Flight Or Fright so very happy to have a 1st of that. Can't complain about a 5th copy of The Institute due to the association with my first King signature and seeing him with Joe. Thank you CD!!
Wow....I purchased two grab bags and can only hope they equal yours!
That's a sweet score indeed with RB AGE.
You don't know my kind.....You don't my mind.....Dark necessities are part of my design.....
That is one of the sweetest grab bags I've ever seen! Now I truly regret not ordering one. Congrats on the awesome score!
Greetings!
I am looking for a lettered edition of Horror Hall of Fame, specifically Letter "S," published by Cemetery Dance in 2012.
Even if you are not sure about selling, if you are currently the owner of this beautiful publication or know someone who does, please do not hesitate to contact me!
I did designs for Jeff for both UK and US First Editions. You can contact Jeff at jeffrey.whiley@ntlworld.com
"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
Will CD be offering any remarques for Night Shift?
