I would vote on a slipcase in the price range of around $30 as most likely I will need to buy 2 of them. One for the collector's edition and another for the signed trade from the tour. Are they both the same size?.
I regret opting for a slipcase instead of ordering the traycase for Six Stories, but somehow I don't think I'll have any remorse for skimping here. My vote is "yes" to a slipcase, but I would not really be interested in a traycase.
just received a newsletter from Cemetery Dance, they will release two different slipcases and a traycase for Under The Dome.
Tomas, since I'm very pleased with the quality of your slipcases I really hope you'll come with either a slipcase or traycase (or both in case you'd like to satisfy everyone

I just saw that myself, and am putting a newsletter out shortly. I will release a case as long as there's enough interest. I'm asking people to go here and vote in the forums. If I get above 50 I'll be making the case.
I contacted S&S about the poor description that they gave of the S/L, especially about the stamped case. Here is their response: Unfortunately, this edition was not advertised with a "slip case." The "case" of a book refers to the hard cover beneath the dust jacket. If you remove the front portion of the dust jacket, you will see the stamped image of a dog. I apologize for any confusion.
I have never considered the boards of a book to be a "case". Sounds like a lame excuse to me!
Calling a stamped image of a dog a stamped case is ridiculous. Since we all thought we already paid for a slipcase, a fairly inexpensive case would be my preference. I don't feel that the quality of this signed edition book justifies a real fancy traycase. I don't think I'd want to pay for a case that's a lot nicer than the book itself. I'm sure the story is great, which is the most important thing in the long run, but if you are going to make a limited edition then do it right and make it something special that people will be proud to own.
I too am disappointed that my S/L edition didn't come with a slipcase. I would be interested in a slipcase or a traycase and would be willing to spend up to $50.00 for it.
