Just my nickels worth on input, I would take that $4,000.00 plus and purchase a few true 1st editions of SK books, rather than spend it on a special edition. To each his own, but whew that's a lot of cash.

IMHO as many 1st editions are just standard trade editions with exorbitant price tags, I would actually prefer to own an ultra deluxe lettered edition of Stephen King's work over any 1st edition. I am aware that most 1st editions of Stephen King's work can fetch monetary value far in excess of the price of PS Publishing's Carrie, I just prefer to enjoy reading his work with the deluxe treatment.
If only I had the money to even try and score a lettered edition of one of Stephen King's books...

Just my thought, 1st edition, the first appearance of a book, trumps Deluxe reprint, in regards to collecting. As for enjoying what you buy and read, I'm all for it!! And as most of you know about me by now, I rarely buy Stephen King. Have all I want...But I will pick up a few of the Cemetery Dance editions coming out, LOL!!!
