I have a couple of auctions running at present, one that ends on Friday and one I just started a few minutes ago. You can check ‘em out here. The first is the signed/limited of Cujo from mysterious press and the other is the German limited edition of It, which is also the first world edition. I just poke my head in the big cabinet that holds all my King stuff and look around until I see something that I either didn’t remember I owned or that holds no sentimental value for me. If it falls into one of those categories, it’s gone. I expect my signed/limited of The Regulators will go up soon. I can’t remember ever being more disappointed with a limited edition. I agonized over spending the $325 list price on it when it was first released, queued up on the phone to acquire one of the copies the day they became available and then got this book that was barely more than the trade edition in a cardboard box.
I’m getting very ruthless about my collecting. I’d much rather line the shelves with copies of my own books, now that I have some of them with which to line shelves!
There’s a baseball autographed by Stephen King over there right now (as of last night, anyway). My piggy bank would have to eat a lot more pennies before I could get it though. *grumbles* I think the buy now price was $499.99 or some such.
Heh, my books don’t take up very much space -so King is safe in my library. He even has his own bookshelf all to himself. *grins* I wish I had enough books to line my shelves with my own work… but…. I’m just not that interesting, I suppose.
But I’ve got to order this …I never heard of the ITALIAN CHARM BRACELET with STEPHEN KING book covers!!!!!! I have a few charm watches and this is too INCREDIBLE to pass up. I gotta have one!

That charm bracelet is interesting. Must be a custom production.
*shrugs* not sure… but it looks pretty cool. I wonder if they did a print of the books, sized them, and then slid them through some sort of a cover over the charm? My charms don’t have covers though -it’s so hard to say what they did. Maybe they got the rights (somehow) to publish them directly on the charms. It’s way cool though.
