Signed Mistborn 2?
« on: September 14, 2008, 03:31:06 PM »
Anyone knows when I can expect (if I can expect) to be able to buy a signed hardcover of Mistborn 2 from the Brandon Sanderson store?

I got Elantris, Mistborn 1 and I recently preordered a signed Mistborn 3 and now I'm really beginning to feel that I want a signed Mistborn 2 for my collection.

I popped off an email to Brandon asking the same thing (we're in the same boat, you and I with those signed books) two days ago, but he's got a lot on his plate now, so I don't expect a response any time soon.

How about Mr. Sanderson just sell autographed index cards for like fifty cents (including shipping), and you just glue it in whatever book you want, even books not authored by him?  Buy 10 for $2.00?  Good idea or great idea?

I have one I can sell you. The inscription reads:

Quote from: MB2 Inscription
Andrew Thorbear--

Great to meet you. Stay cool in Las Vegas and remember that there's always another secret.

Brandon Sanderson


How awesome is that? It's like he knew in advance (duralumin + atium?) that you would be buying this one of a kind personalized book from me for the original purchase price plus $150 s&h.
Now you've got all the ones with beards on one side and all the
moustaches on the other.

Hey, now now. I think it's awesome that Brandon sells signed hardbacks on his website. It really shows his devotion to the fans. I'll eagerly await when he sells more.

And Utopia, if you even MENTION that Brandon could "show his devotion to the fans" and/or message board users by giving out free signed copies of MB3, you're gonna get ten thousand knives down your throat. I don't know how or when, but it will happen, because I am getting quite aggravated with your idiotic posts.

Actually, Utopia, he did consider something like that.  (I'm not sure if he's actually doing them.)  They were called bookplates (I think) and they were stickers you could purchase.  He would sign it and personalize it if you wanted, and then send out.  Although, I think that the price was a bit higher then what you've suggested.
"The custom of royalty in referring to oneself is to naturally employ the royal 'we'.  We are very happy, we are very sad, we are bored and suffer from ennui.  For a royal prince there's no such word as 'me', It's always 'we'.  So rightfully I should be two or three, don't you agree?"

Signed copies of MB2 are coming soon?  How soon?  Well just as soon as I create the store item for it--which should be about 30 minutes from now give or take 30 minutes.

Supplies are limited, so don't expect them to be on sale for very long.
Screw it, I'm buying crayons and paper. I can imagineer my own adventures! Wheeee!

No.  What do you think I just happened to place it up just a few minutes ago?  Well ok, I did.
