GRADING: BOOK first, DJ/or slipcase/traycase second MANY Consignment Prices are set by the consignee, NOT me! Contact me at david@bettsbooks.com or (203) 292-8616 My address for mailing items is: Betts Books LLC David Williamson, Caretaker 130 Curtis Terrace Fairfield, CT 06825-1210 BETTS BUSINESS TYPICALLY IS DONE LATE MORNING/EARLY AFTERNOONS WEEKDAYS I AM NOT AVAILABLE SUNDAYS AND ALL MAJOR HOLIDAYS. Betts Books LLC is an on-line site; there is no physical book store. Because I am a business, it appears that PayPal only allows $ to be sent to me as goods and services (for which they extract a 3%+ fee)...Some customers out of USA still can send Friends and Family (no fee)
Just an FYI...I work another job roughly 3pm to midnight Sunday-Thurs THE CANDY STORE HAS BEEN "RESTOCKED" ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK! I AM A BOOK Above images of Father Callahan (me) are by artist Michael Whelan (Gunslinger, The Dark Tower, Little Sisters of Eluria, Firestarter). Image on the left is a painting that I now own....the right image is a sketch Michael did of me for Knowing Darkness Deluxe book (which I also own). ***ATTENTION*** If an item is marked Sold, Hold etc. and you have NOT gotten an email from me, you can assume that the item is claimed by someone else. I try to update the site and also email the "asker" of the items at the same time when it comes to large uploads...so if you have not heard from me yet, those items already marked Sold are claimed by someone else and therefore not available any more. Sold means claimed and paid for; Hold typically means claimed but not yet paid. 99%+ of Holds become Solds And here (below) is a link to a revitalized site by artist Don Maitz http://www.paravia.com/DonMaitz

***TESTIMONIALS*** "Although I have been perusing David's website at Betts Books for quite a long time, I only recently made my first purchase. The quality and condition of the books were spot on and the packaging was phenomenal as they arrived completely unscathed at my home in The Netherlands. My first experience with David at Betts Books was a pleasure and it will keep me coming back again and again. David, you are THE go-to-man for Stephen King collectors!" Brad S. - The Netherlands David is a shining beacon in the world of king collecting. He provides outstanding service and razor sharp pricing, coupled with an in-depth knowledge on all things King. It's no wonder Betts Books always gets a chunk of my disposable income. Scott. New Zealand. David Williamson, the curator of bettsbooks is also a collector. As such, the product I usually get from him is in excellent condition. I also appreciate him setting up layaway plans for cash-strapped but equally passionate collectors. Leo Giving a thumbs up for Betts and its caretaker David. His knowledge of collecting King makes Betts the number one stop for all your King collecting needs.- Ralph Mulleins Simply the best for Stephen King books- even better than its excellent reputation leads you to expect. The stock is impressive and constantly updated, prices are dangerously tempting and the first class, friendly service I've received from David has led me to consider him more as a friend than as a seller. Kieron Spackman, Bilbao, Spain THE place for Stephen King items. Great quality and packaging which is invaluable when shipping "precious" items in the mail. The most fair person running the site-David Williamson- a King collector himself and extremely knowledgeable in all things King! Hope you keep doing this for many years ahead! " As a newcomer to SK collecting , I have already ordered 3 books from Betts Books starting with Full Dark,No Stars. It is an amazing bookshop to deal with as I enjoyed an excellent service and good communication with David ,Betts' Caretaker. I hope to do more business with him in this fascinating field." MOSHE PRIGAN HAIFA , ISRAEL "Hi David, I would like to thank you. In the accolades for the David Williamson & Bett's Books column - you have made the entire experience of selling my Stephen King collection a smooth, fair & professional experience. I can't say pleasurable since I sold an almost thirty year passion (less the hold out DT series, which you will likely be involved with at some point in the future!). Well, yes I can say pleasurable since you fielded my numerous questions, inquiries, phone calls with patience & good humor. It took me several years to decide to sell, and you are a large part of why I was able to arrive at and feel good about the decision. Anyway, please feel free to count me as a supporter of your endeavor in keeping the Bett's name flourishing. I am guessing you do not really need additional references, endorsements or positive reviews, however, it would be my pleasure to speak up on your behalf if requested. DM from Florida
