    Default Complete collection

    I am trying to find a complete hardcover collection of first editions for my boss. Any ideas on where to find this?

    Hi Pah!
    You don't say if you read SK at all, so I wonder if you realize you're talking about ALOT of books! Many of us here have made this a lifetime project to collect first editions of his books. I have about 50 of his books, maybe 35 of which are first editions.
    Also, there was more than one publishing house, as his works span decades, and there is no one place to go to get this "collection". Even if, like Srbo said, you have very, very deep pockets!
    Good luck! (You must really love your boss!!)

    As Sirbo says Hope you have Deep pockets, even used hard covers are expensive not to mention hard to find. GOOD LUCK!

    I wonder what the total value of this collection would be. Duma Key cost me $35.00 hard copy. October 2007 I printed his Print-Friendly List of Works, it was 7 pages long. DEEP POCKETS indeed!!!

    Good luck.
    If you want to get an idea of what sort of price King's books can fetch, check out e-bay. Search for a first edition, hard-cover of The Stand. I think you'll be pretty darn shocked.

    I got most of my older hard covers from used books stores, but you can find quite of few on e-bay too.

    Hi everyone! Thanks for all of the good info so far. I am just locating the collection for my boss, not paying for it!! He is an avid fan, and not concerned about cost (it must be nice). I have located a few sources where I can pick up a few hardback first editions, but I would love to find most or all, from one place. Also they need to be in a condition rated 1 or 2. I am about to check out the link from Srbo. I will check back here soon. Thanks again!
