    Appears that releases are going to be phased to allow people a little more opportunity to pick this one up.

    I'm passing on it but strictly due to personal reasons. The artwork looks fantastic.
    Yeah, they said an order link will go out at 9am EST, and go live at 11am EST, 3pm EST, and 7pm EST.

    They've done this staggered ordering for past releases, but it's been a disaster every time due to website malfunctions. 

    I'll grab this one because it's one of my favorite SK books, and with Francois' artwork, it should be a nice production.

    I completely understand Ron and your position. I have generally avoided the PS King editions as I am not a fan of their design decisions, and do not find them a value purchase. Different Seasons is a King book that matters to me. I was very disappointed when I was not able to get a copy on initial announcement, due to PS's ecomm site, and have been looking for one on the secondary market since its release. I just couldn't justify the silly after market prices it was demanding. I also do not really care if it is a PC or numbered so this was an easy decision for me.

Maybe -- maybe -- if it had somehow been a Numbered copy (which I did try to get at the initial offering but was defeated by PS's poor order process)...but I don't like PC copies, I don't particularly like the art that is in the book, I have a perfectly nice (at least NF/NF if not F/F) HC trade 1st of it. With all of that suddenly in mind, I realized that FOMO almost blinded me as well to the tune of $150+. The sting of losing it again is lingering, but I'll get over it...wish it would hurry up and sell out, though.

    Now reality has set in and I'm going to pass. $167 is maybe just a little much right now.

    FOMO almost got to me.

    You may want to try again. I should have explained my issues. The site showed it as available and the first time I tried. The purchase failed with an error that they had 0 on hand. I checked and the site showed the item as out of stock. Figured I may have missed out and walked away. Remembering the web issues form the original attempts to purchase I went back to the site, and it again showed that I could order. I tried again and the order went through. As of now the site appears to still have on hands. Good luck, the ecomm site PS uses clearly is having issues.

    11/22/63 is one of my favorites. I sold my signed trade earlier this year so dependent on price I certainly have interest in this.

After I look at the pictures again in that context, it certainly seems that they’re correct. I have the signed/ltd. publisher’s edition so am trying to convince myself that I don’t need to violate my red line of no variants, but, man, Francois V.’s art is just remarkable…so we’ll see.
    Hmm. I hadn't caught that (from the art), so- thanks for the (possible) heads-up. I, somewhat regrettably, sold my 11/22/63 signed copy you are referring to years ago, and, as I have a complete matched-numbered PS King set so far- I'm definitely interested. Mostly, I was intrigued by the "Esoteric Order of Dagon" art- which looked fantastic- as 'Innsmouth' is one of my favorite Horror Stories (Lovecraft or not) full stop, so was more sidelined by that. But, yeah- Francois' art looks great, as always.

    Awesome and congrats. If you would like you can create a PS thread. I'm sure it would be a good place to share the PS love.

As always, I do wish they used a sturdier feeling slipcase such as the ones offered by CD but I'm sure it helps them reduce cost and production time. PS has this line down pat as they seem to be able to produce these SK limited editions rather quickly compared to others. Can't wait for the next one!

    Hope this is an ok place to post this as I didn't see a dedicated PS thread.

    I forgot to order it, sadly. But I'm way over-budget at the moment, so it wasn't meant to be.

    I don't think it'll be too difficult to find on the secondary market some day.
