What happened to the Lumley wants list?
I stumbled upon it the other day, now I can't find it:confused:.
It lasted a few years so it must of been popular. I was going to post on it, so I will have to start a fresh one.
I've only just started collecting, as before my new PC and my internet era I didn't know where to find anything special. Local bookshops in Australia only have massmarket PBs and I have read them to death.
Anyway, if anyone has spare copies of any of Brians works, I'm interested in buying them. I am restocking my entire collection so if you need space on your bookshelf, a bit of extra cash, or you need to empty a box of old PBs even, I can probably help you. I'm looking for every edition of everything eventually(my wife thinks I'm obsessive-ya think?:rolleyes:).
I also have a heap of other authors, if you want to swap, I'll be compiling a list soon, lots of Ramsey Campbell, Richard Laymon, James Herbert etc. Don't know if they are popular over there or not, but, it's an idea.
My email is on my profile if anyone can help,
thanx.

Can anyone help me?
There's a copy of Caller Of The Black on Ebay for US$20, its not in good condition, but I'd buy it-it's the only one I've ever seen. How much do they usually go for? Another thing, he does not ship to Australia, I begged him but he won't relent:(. If anyone can recieve it and send it on, I will pay you for your trouble(plus postage of course.), so if anyone has some advice etc. please let meknow,
thanx.

$20 isn't a bad price at all, but you might want to look here: http://www.abebooks.com/

If he'll ship to the UK I can fwd it on to you.

I have a copy of it, so you would get it ;) you can ask anyone round here that I am trustworthy :)

Hi Matman - I live in the US....I can ship it to you. I know that it would drive me nuts if there was a book I wanted and couldn't get because I lived abroad. Just let me know!

You could depend on Tom. I'd say he's very trustworthy.

Thanx for the offer Tops, but the seller refused to let me bid because I was not a registered US ebay member:mad: . Pretty damn frustrating, maybe next time.

Ok, since I finally had a financial year that was worth writing home about (I sold my old house), I'm looking for a few books I missed because of their cost.

Sixteen Sucking Stories ( I know - tough one)

The Dreamlands Series by Dimension House (Delirium Books)

Anyone have these that are extra or they want to get rid of? Yeah, I know - I doubt anyone wants to let these go - but it never hurts to ask. Thanks for any info.

A little more than I though they would be, but don't forget Dave, only 26 sets and they will go up in price. And if you do ever get a set, wait till you see the interior art from Dave. Fantastic!

About "Sixteen",if you ever find one, figure on about 600.00 to 800.00
