    I grabbed:

    Seductions, The Girl in the Basement, Methods of Madness, and The Disappeared and Other Stories by Ray Garton
    Brides of the Impaler by Ed Lee
    Picking the Bones and Mad Dogs by Brian Hodge
    The Family Tree by John Everson
    I passed. I was on their site and it was getting dangerous. But after the gift certificates and credit plan, I needed to just cool it.

      The only thing I did go for is CD's credit plan. I was wondering who else at this forum got the credit plan. Cap

      Books are weapons in the war of ideas.

          I went for the CD credit plan but I also went a bit mad at Camelot.

          I am travelling to Tampa in January and so had already bought these books, which I will collect then:
          The Green Mile by Stephen King/gift edition
          Talisman/Black House by Stephen King and Peter Straub/gift edition
          Gunpowder by Joe Hill/unsigned state
          This Dark Chest of Wonders: 40 Years of The Stand by Andy Burns/limited (to be published)
          Gravity Dreams by Stephen Baxter/signed state
          Last and First Contacts by Stephen Baxter/limited
          Mayflower II by Stephen Baxter/signed state
          The Dispatcher by John Scalzi/limited
          Riding the Rock by Stephen Baxter/signed state
          Starfall by Stephen Baxter/signed state
          Universes by Stephen Baxter/unsigned state
          Xeelee Endurance by Stephen Baxter/slipcased state

          And then over the weekend I grabbed these ones

          John Scalzi

          In a separate deal with my new favourite board member, I will also collect the first four Old Man's War S/Ls from SubPress. I already have the 5th.

          So I will have some very heavy suitcases to bring home (to Australia) with me.

                No doubt! That's quite the haul.

                  I know it must look like that, but I have been paying off the top half on layaway for about 8 months. The sales purchases average out to $23 each - many on here would pay as much for a single book as I paid for the 18 books.

                  While I was shopping the sale, I had McCammon's Stinger in my cart but by the time I got to the checkout, it was gone. Anyone here like to fess up?

                  I also noticed that lots of the Lansdale books I'd been eyeing off were no longer for sale and I was sure that Jeffingoff had beaten me to them - I know he's been buying up on the Lansdales. But then I saw that he resisted, so I should apologise for the awful things I said about you Jeff.

                    Hahahaha no offense taken! For sure I was looking through all the Lansdales and pumping the brakes. After padding my CD account with a healthy amount of funds, I had to kind of pretend I didn't see anything.

                      I always seem to be in hock with Camelot myself.

                          An unsigned Joe Hill book? That's quite a rarity!

                            That's how you know he had actually won the Lottery - I don't think any of us regular Joes can afford an unsigned Joe Hill book.

                              I am sure the awful things you said about Jeffingoff still apply, just not for the original intent.

                                True. It will be one of the only Joe Hills I have that hasn't been scrawled upon.
