One question that I have, and maybe I'm blind, but did you notice a limitation for the book listed anywhere on the order page? I saw that they listed it as a LE and mentioned it being a one-time printing but I didn't see the number of copies anywhere. Just curious.
    No, you are correct. I did not see a limitation noted for the book, either.

    Just received my Billy Summers slipcase. Glad to finally have this in-hand as, excluding the Double Day books, it was my oldest pending pre-order. While I hate that it took over 3 years to produce, it did turn out fantastic and might be the best-looking S. King slipcase that CD has produced so far. The color really pops and the design on the front fits the book well.

    I keep meaning to ask Mindy for a list of what they still owe me, and maybe get a refund...some of this stuff seems like it'll just never come out. I don't even know how a refund would be possible on things like the collectors club exclusive hardcovers and things like that. I used to snap up every CD offering like candy, but I have completely lost faith in them being able to deliver on anything in an even remotely timely fashion anymore.
    I recently received a refund via Mindy for many hundreds of dollars for books preordered years ago. I gave up. CD is not trustworthy. No more preorders or Collectors Club. Danny - I am going to be asking Mindy about those CD Club books soon. Should be interesting.

The title changed long ago to 'Shocklines: An Anthology of Terror. At one point I was ordering from CD at least once a month. At this point I do not believe I will ever be a regular customer or CD again. They have developed a complete lack of communication. The website provides no reliable information, and they are basically a paperback publisher at this point. Hopefully I will get the books I have on order but to be honest, I am basically ignoring CD at this point.

    This is why I just refuse to do pre-orders any more, especially from CD. They have books on the docket that I proofed almost two decades ago, including some that I don't even think have been announced. It's just insane.
    I've been ordering the slipcases, and the portfolios for The Stand and Pet Semetery, but apart from those, the last book I ordered was Gwendy's Final Task S/L on 4/12/21.

    I just counted, and I'm waiting on 23 CD orders going back to 2010. I'm waiting for them to catch up before ordering anything else. I may be dead by then.

    I ordered mine on 8/25/15, so more like 9.5 years for me. I know some people ordered in 2014.
    Just bonkers. Absolutely bonkers.
