Thanks Tomas. Yes I have one of your Salems Lot cases (came with the book I purchased via eBay). I don't have the prints to go in it though, so hadn't thought of that when I saw this.

This does look so cool, I really want one. Just having trouble convincing myself my $16 first edition deserves it lol

I can totally understand that. Of course if you pick up a signed 1st or a S/L down the road you might kick yourself a bit.

While I'm not limiting production per se - with two other companies doing cases for this book I'm not confident enough demand is going to be there to keep these available on an ongoing basis.

I went into this case project assuming some cases orders would get siphoned off by the months in advance pre-orders that the other folks put out there, and based on orders so far I was pretty right. (Although it was kind of nice seeing some posts from tdt.org members wishing they had held off for my case :) )

Yeah while the CD ones are nice, they are very similar to the others they have done (UTD, WTTK etc). Your one is very unique.

You know what, I think maybe I will grab one, with an intent to pick up a signed edition in the future. I'm not a flatsigned collector (or much of a S/L collector for that matter), but this just may be the inspiration I need to add a nice flatsigned to my collection. I did love this story, so what the hell right....

I saw your order come in, thanks James! This is totally going to class up your regular 1st edition even if you don't "upgrade" down the road.

Curse you Tomas. I've just negotiated (I think) to buy a flatsigned first edition to go in this new case.

I'm not even a flatsigned collector, but couldn't let a standard 1st edition live in this awesome case :)

Hi Tomas,
Any update of the shipping schedule of the tray case? All set to go later this month?

Cheers
James

All set to go, I expect they'll start shipping out the week of the 27th if not a little sooner!

Sweet
My signed edition is getting shipped today, so looks like everything is coming together nicely.

(insert Thomas' "excellent" impersonation)
