:wtf:I know this is not Kosher ...But this is a $5.00 book at BEST....and 1st editions sell for less then $5.00 (Maybe if it were signed you could ask this price.)
At that price it must be signed. He probably neglected to mention it.
I'm sorry.....It's NOT my job to ASSUME it's signed.
Spoiler: 03-17-2016 09:51 PMzeligCome on Bruce... You don't want to be Chief Assumption Officer for the Tippy Corporation? Sounds like a fun job. :smile: 03-18-2016 05:03 AMAstroDadQuote:not your job, as you noted, to call out prices either. Seems to me the decent thing to do is simply ask what makes the book worth $200 compared to others that sell for less. 03-18-2016 05:05 AMwebstar1000 03-18-2016 09:39 AMtippy4Quote:As others have commented, it is not your job to comment on my or anyone's prices in this thread. Please refer to post#1 in this thread....either buy it or keep quiet.
And what is the point of marking your second comment with a spoiler?...did that make it seem more clever to you?
You know Bruce, you are doing an excellent job of living up to the reputation of your avatar....a crusty old man who enjoys stirring things up.
That said, thank you for bringing to my attention that I ommited the fact the book is indeed signed. I have corrected the original listing. 03-19-2016 08:30 AMBrian861Stephen King-Desperation-Oversized Print With Remaque Signed Art By Don MaitzRecently won through a HF auction.

http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e3...psfzdlvlzf.jpg
The book is unread, tight straight and clean, a fine copy. The jacket has light edge- and corner-wear, a small crease along rear top edge, another to top front at the "K" in "King," and a spot of heavier wear to rear at top of gutter. Color is great and the overall presentment is quite nice.
$25 OBO. Please PM if interested.

http://www.thedarktower.org/palaver/...The+-+Trade+HC 03-20-2016 03:55 PMfiremonkey66For sale is my signed limited #518 copy of The Stand. 1400 dollars Paypal Friends & Family. The coffin box has a few light scuffs and light scratches, but is otherwise in great condition. The glassine dust jacket is not the original jacket, it is a replacement in the same measurements and material. The book itself is beautiful, unread, near fine, with a few issues. There is a red mark on the limitation page to the right of Berni Wrightson's signature. It looks like it probably happened at the signing (see photos). There is a small dull spot on the leather at the middle front cover bottom edge (see photos). There is another small dull spot at the left spine (see photos). Finally, there is an area of light scratching to the middle of the spine opposite gold page edge (see many photos). And there is an area on the upper spine opposite gold page edge that has two small spots where the gold seems worn away (see photos). I have taken many photos for fair examination. This is the link to my photo bucket collection of photos of the book and coffin box.

It has been brought to my attention that me offering to sell this piece from a very recent HF auction was in very poor taste. I apologize to you all for that and especially to the staff of the site that works so hard to bring these items forward for us to bid on and most importantly to assist in raising funds for the HF. It was an impulse bid and I actually thought it would sell for much higher. I thought it would have been in even more poor taste to withdraw my bid from the auction. Especially a HF auction. I assure you, I will take more into consideration before making future bids of HF auctions. I probably misspoke when I said I was wanting to sell the piece to "purchase more books". What I should have stated was the sell of the piece would have been applied towards a book/s for future HF auctions. My intent wasn't to make a profit on the piece as you can see but to merely offer it to someone here that wanted it at a slightly cheaper price. Again, my apologies as I didn't intend to tarnish the fundraiser or profit from it in any way outside of auctions that I have already won. Thanks for your time.
Brian

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/sg2sIY8.jpg[/IMG] 03-21-2016 01:02 AMstroppygoblinI personally have no problem with this sale. The point of a donated HF item is to raise money for the charity, what the buyer does with the item after that is their business. I can see some members getting annoyed if it was bought to instantly make a big profit, but in this case, Brian was looking to sell for a loss. HF items rarely make good buys for resell anyway as:
a) they have been well announced and most members looking to buy said item would have made their max bid already
b) Price is sometimes 'artificially' raised because of the nature of the sale
I don't see any sentimental attachment to an item sold for the HF at all. It's clearly NOT 'in poor taste' :arg: 03-21-2016 01:22 AMbiomiegMy thoughts exactly! 03-21-2016 01:43 AMJimimckI'm with you Simon. It's a shame someone or some people made Brian feel that post was required, but think his post was very well written and clearly explains where he was coming from. 03-21-2016 02:53 AMbdwyer19Simon is exactly right. Others have resold Haven Fund auction winnings in past years, and to my knowledge were not criticized. Once the item is in their possession, they have every right to do whatever they want with the book.
Brian has nothing to apologize for.
