....outstanding muchacho!!!!!!.....Soooo.....Heading out to one my good book find places a couple of weeks or so ago, I ended up having a good day. I took the new bridge between Indiana and Kentucky which put me coming in to Half Price Books from a different direction. Doing so ended up being a blessing. I stumbled upon a second Half Price Book store that I didn't even know existed. When I went in and headed straight to the Horror section I stood in silent amazement. Staring back at me was several of the 'older' copies of SK books. They stared back with what appeared to be perfect unblemished dustcover spines. I stood silent as Carrie, Cujo, Shining, Thinner, Night Shift, Salem's Lot, Dead Zone, Firestarter, Danse Macabre, Pet Semetary and several other copies sat there waiting for me to take them in my hands. More SK books than I had ever seen in one location before just sat there. My mind was racing like a kid given free reign in a candy store. Paralysis held me in place as my mind raced. Had I somehow traveled in time or had someone died and their unknowing children sold their perfect book collection to the store just to get rid of them. My hand shot out to Carrie first and it was perfect. Like most of the books there, it appeared to have never been cracked open. It was not a first edition but it was nice. I started stacking up books in front of me as I compared each book to my list that I keep stored on my phone. Many were First Editions, many were just better copies than what I had in my collection. I ended up replacing 9 books in my collection and I hurried to the front to pay and get over to the other HP Bookstore as quickly as possible. Could I be so fortunate a second time? The answer is yes. The other store looked almost identical to the first store and I replaced 4 more books in my collection. The price of books ranged from 2-9 bucks and I was ecstatic that I had scored such a big find. Plus, for 2 bucks, I picked up Clive Barkers Book of Blood which has a really cool story called The Yattering and Jack. A story that I read in High School many years ago and was happy to find again.
All in all, it was a great day that still leaves me wondering how they came into so many near perfect books from the 70's and 80's. Leaving the second store, the cashier was amazed. He said I found some really nice old copies and that he was completely unaware they were back there.

Hmm...I see there's a Half Price Books in Ft Wayne, IN (about an hour's drive from my neck of the woods). Thanks for the idea, Cowboy.
