From SKMB:

"My understanding is that 850 will be going on sale. There are more that were signed (1,000 total) that are being held back for author copies and for the publisher's use."

Thanks, Alan. I wonder if they will be numbered. I doubt it, but I'm hoping.

Tip sheets are flat signed (which just means no personalization). They are not numbered editions, just signed and will not be personalized as they are being shipped out immediately and Steve does not have the time to personalize them in any case with the book tour coming up.

Here is the details of the UK version:

"Here's what I've been told by Hodder. They are releasing a collector's edition of 700 copies with DVD, a slipcase, and a facsimile signature (Stephen did not have time to sign copies). Their copies will be available through local bookshops but I was not given a list of specific book sellers."



Due to the "facsimile" signature only, I think this will be available on the secondary market for well below the issue price.

I totally agree. This will be similar to how a gift edition holds onto value 70-90% of retail. The two things this edition has going for it over a typical gift edition would be the low print run and the fact it's in the UK added costs like shipping to the US may eat up a higher percentage of the markdown then usual.

(Sigh) boy I wish King had time to sign these. I'm fully expecting a much better product then the US edition otherwise.
