srboone's collection

[srboone]

Visited B&N again today (since it's a block away from my movie theater) and took a look around. I found this in the Bargain Bin. I don't know that I'll ever read it and if I hadn't just read Carrion Comfort, I would have passed by it without a thought.

It is a 1st print trade HC.

But when I looked at the title page, I saw this.

Spoiler!

None of the other copies of BH there had this. I looked online and it appears to be his signature and it doesn't appear to be a facsimile. I can't say where and when it was signed (though I can probably make up a good story) and I'll have to do some work to rejuvenate the DJ, but it looks like I got a signed copy for $4.39 (with my rewards member ship and coupons)!

Very impressive collection, so jealous, I will be posting my collection soon. I found a signed copy of a Chuck Palahniuk book in the bargain section at B&N once, actually four signed and stamped copies of Snuff hardcover for 3.99 each so now I obsessively search the bargain books for signatures

[srboone]

Cool! I think I'm gona start combing them for signed copies as well!

Can't wait to dive into this one!

If I were an author I'd randomly go into book stores and sign a few copies when no one is looking.

Looks like a photo-shopped job to me.

I actually gasped when I saw it. It looks like my forarm did when I broke it.

Another package from CD. I've been looking at this for more than a year and finally bit with a 50% off coupon.

I have the ARC that I got in an SK grab bag along with an SOD1 a while back.

I got this in the dinged books sale and I couldn't find anything wrong with it other than it not having a DJ, which Dan was kind enough to send me after I mentioned I was looking for one.

Ha! Teriw, I did the same thing! I love CD and their dinged books!

OMG! Where did you get this? I'm so jealous of you right now!

Me too. But make sure your recognizable so you don't get arrested.

I had to order it online.

I don't think it's carried instore. At least it wasn't in any B&N stores in KC.
