I don't have any real expectations. I figured it would be just interesting to see how far away or close the apple fell from the tree so to speak. And as a writer myself, I like to read as much as I can just to open my mind sometimes.

I paid $120 to ship two car doors from Philadelphia to British Columbia. 2 books, weigh quite a bit less than one door. CD should be able to ship them for cheaper.
Postage rates went up in Canada last year. A stamp to mail a letter is $1.00 now. Rates went up 35 to 50 percent. Really have to
think twice before you mail anything here.
I was going to mail 2 little packets of hot chocolate to my granddaughter. They were in a small brown envelope and it was going to
cost $5.18. I didn't send them.

Joe Hill...Fireman. Signed Limited at Cemetery Dance. I have officially crossed over from Fan to Addict. And now...I really need a second job. LOL
This actually isn't a signed/limited edition. It's a regular trade edition with a signed bookplate being attached. At least that's what I understood from the email they sent out this morning.
Oh...so should I cancel that order? No good?
That's up to you. You can go into the 'Joe Hill' thread on here and find the link to the bookstore that is taking orders for an actual book that Joe will sign in person on the title page (and even have it inscribed to you this way). They will send you the book when it is time, of course, you'll have to pay for shipping but it's probably going to be cheaper than what CD will charge for shipping. I'm sure CD is doing something special with the bookplate but I know a lot of collectors think a signed bookplate isn't really anything special. I have a couple of Anne Rice and Patricia Cornwell books that have signed bookplates in them- makes no difference to me. It's all a matter of personal choice....
I feel the same way. I would much prefer a signed book in lieu of a bookplate, but it really doesn't bother me much.

Is this the book where a killer has a killing spree on an omnibus? 
Yes! You have uncovered the until-now unknown novel by Stephen King!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!View attachment 14139 Is this the book where a killer has a killing spree on an omnibus?
I ordered one but didn't get an email this morning.....
Finally came in the mail today! Outstanding! Love it!
I love how cemetery dance did carrie. Quality is suberb. For the life of me can't figure out why after all this time it is still not sold out. Which has really hurt the value. Not that most of us here are not in it for the value,but still be nice if it went out of print
It's a separate piece of paper that is often glued or placed into the front of a book with the author's signature on it. (There are also bookplates that indicate the owner's name, but we're talking about ones with the author's name here.) This was done in the UK edition of Lisey's Story, among others.

I picked up a ratty paperback of Dark Tower 7. I'm planning to read it next, and I refuse to prop up that massive brick hardcover when I'm reading in bed. The Under The Dome incident is still fresh in my head. Literally. 
Riding the Bullet and hardcover of Stephen King's N just arrived! Outstanding!
Haven season one and two. I noticed this show has a subforum on here, so I picked these up. Don't know much about this show, so I'm excited to give it a shot.
I stopped by the used bookstore today to see if I could find a copy of Wizard & Glass. I struck out but I did find something I had not heard of before...Its called Fear Itself The Early Works of Stephen King.
I was actually pretty impressed with the SK shelf at the store, I had checked there a few times before and they usually only have a few pb copies but today the shelves were loaded with pb and a ton of first edition hard backs. It really made me sad I'm a little short on cash right now, I'd have loved to buy them all
