    A Gunslinger burger, that's right! I want one. Sarah probably does too. David will after a long day of sorting things out in the store.

    Don't want to derail the Bett's thread any more than I've already started to, but you will definitely need to start a discussion on this topic in the Random Thoughts thread and let us all know the dates as soon as possible. Also for maximum exposure, perhaps start a thread in the other forum where TDT.com get-togethers are discussed.

    Keep up the good work David! And don't hesitate to ask for feedback or help!

    Sold 4 more of my "stocking stuffers" today. Have now sold about 1/2 of the books I've accumulated over the last month. Guess I'm doing something right!

    I gotta say that David runs a fine ship at Betts. I ordered two books, one listed as a sale of a reader's copy (still a 1st) and a second 1st that help complete my set of 1st Editions) they were both upgrades to my copies which hads embossed stamps of "from the Library of..." from back when I was young and foolish and knew nothing of collecting.

    Now I have nice 1sts of Christine and Different Seasons - the Readers copy was better than the 1st ed I had anyway.

    Thanks David!!!

    And they also arrived well packed and rather quickly too!

    I am so glad that Betts is open for business!

    Only two more 1sts to go (both toughies on my budget - Salem's Lot and the Gunslinger) and the 4 Bachman paperbacks to go!

    Hey collectors!!! Would you be interested in seeing a sample list of what prices I am realizing these days at Betts? You might be surprised at some of the prices people are paying...sometimes much different from eBay.

    If there is enough support, I can put a list together. It will not betray any customer relationships.

    I'd actually love to see that. Now that you ARE the market, it would be very interesting for sure.
