Any ideas on value appreciated. I have a 600-odd numbered matching set of the grant dark tower books, from no.2 to 7 inclusive. All perfect condition etc, and wanted an idea of what they are worth as a set. I can include a non-signed 1st edition of the gunslinger if it will make the set go better. I have seen some silly figures for a matching 1-7 set and realize that this is not in that league, but would have thought it a pretty nice set for all that.

Set with numbers of 500 are not so much in demand because you cannot get a complete set.

Betts Bookstore has sold sets like this in the past for $2500

"Partial Dark Tower S/L Set: DT II-VII S/L all #520 - books and slipcases are in Fine/Fine condition "

Not long ago. I only have the details of sales since David took over.
