What an amazing Christmas gift!

I have the best Mother in Law in the world! I was just so excited that she actually found a hc copy of Carrie. I have been looking forever! Really doesn't even matter what it is worth, I would never part with it!

Hi,

Of course it doesn't matter to you what it's worth, and neither it should, but perhaps you should think of getting it valued and listed on your household insurance in a world where people are looking for a million bucks for some photocopies.

Sorry to sound so mundane, enjoy your gift!

Long days and pleasant nights

sooooo jealous ... I keep looking in the secondhand stores here but very rarely find any SK hardcovers let alone a Carrie ....
worst thing is - I had all the early Hard Covers until some filthy thief broke into my house and stole them and my LP collection

JBJ, what an awesome share! You greeted me kindly my first day here and I've experienced your thoughtfulness firsthand--NO ONE deserves that treasure more. Happy-happy-joy-joy! Sending my warmest holiday wishes to you.

[LIST][*]She found this gorgeous copy at a used bookstore in Mesa and paid under $5 for it!
[*]The biggest surprise was when I opened it up Sai King's signature was staring back at me. Not only that but its a first edition .

Hi,

And it's an object lesson in WHY we should never pass a second hand shop, charity shop or yard type sale without thoroughly checking out the books.

They're still out there, folks!

Long days and pleasant nights

JBJ, please inform your mother-in-law that her actions are ruining all the jokes and that she should stop it immediately. Congratulations.
