I suppose a selller can ask any price they want. Seems like a waste of time:
La Tour Sombre l'Intégrale, Tome 2 (French Edition), King, Stephen,
So you're saying that the book isn't worth $91.32-$105.02? But it's got FREE SHIPPING! lol
I've noticed that a few months ago, when a french fan was asking tips of where to find this book... and there are only a few copies available online, for this kind of price. Which is twice the original price.
If i remember correctly, it was a limited print run of 2,500 or 5,000 copies each.
There is the same shortage of copies with the french COLORADO KID. It's out of print, and i dont know how many copies were done but... probably not that much. Guess i could ask the publisher.

Interesting!
However, the seller doesn't ship to The Netherlands and it is not possible to send a message :/

How foreign companies get away with using copywritten artwork is beyond me, lol.
In the case of the Spanish cover, the artwork is purchased to the publisher as well.
I do not understand that comment. It is likely that the publishers buys the rights to use the artwork as well. I seriously doubt that major publishers will NOT buy rights for artwork. It's just that OFTEN they use already artwork, as i guess that buying rights is cheaper than trying to get good artwork. Easier, cheaper, matching the author's vision of the book. What's wrong about that?
By the way...check the Spanish cover for Joyland. I LOVE IT.
And it'll be published in a small format (like a pocket book), in hardcover with dustjacket.

Yeah, a lot of times I think rights to art for a book are sold in one country and might even be sold for a totally differing book in another. I think it's just that there are sometimes cases where worldwide rights are sold and sometimes country specific rights.
You're right about artwork being also sold for different books.
Last week or so i've seen the following cover on a book from a different author (dont remember who) :

And i know that the Firestarter cover of the limited edition was used on another book too. Both in France.

Yeah, I've seen that knowing darkness pic on another cover too. That's one example i had in mind when i made that statement.
