Amazon says the same thing and says you can get it delivered by Feb 16 if you order in the next 18 hours and choose one-day shipping.

So, apparently the only two RP short stories are "A Day in the Life" and "Interlude at Duane's"?
I have both "Barrens and others" and "Soft and others", and I cannot find any other stories where Jack appears.
Let me know, Lexx

"The Wringer" from the Night Screams anthology (1996) is the one that FPW is thinking of putting into one of the last 2 Jack books (which is why it doesn't appear on the Secret History list). That anthology can be had for as low as $1.00 on Abebooks.
That makes 4 RJ short stories.
There are also a number of Otherness related short stories that do not have Rasalom, Jack or Glaeken in them.

"A Day in the Life"
"Home Repairs"*
"The Long Way Home"
"The Last Rakosh"*
"The Wringer"
"Interlude at Duane's"
"Do-Gooder"
(*incorporated into novels)
Check the bibliography for publishing details.
Not in the biblio (which is current through the end of 2008) is "Recalled" in the Matheson tribute anthology just published by Gauntlet. It's not a true RJ story (he's not the central character), but I guess it could be considered an associational story.

"The Long way Home" is in the horror anthology, "Dark at Heart", from Dark Harvest. Mine is signed and limited, but I thing they made a trade edition as well. Look on abebooks.com

Look on abebooks.comErr. Sorry about that statement. Yes "The Long Way Home" is in an anthology (the one you mentioned) as well as on a German Audio CD and a German story collection. FPW's bibliography doesn't list any trade edition for Dark At Heart.
It is currently only "in current publication" on Amazon for $0.49
Abebooks has copies of what looks like the Dark At Heart anthology (various authors) for as little as 6.94...although none of the entries for the book list FPW as a contributor...but the publisher and date (and title) are correct.
One of the sellers has a picture of the cover and it has FPW, so that must be it.

However, in my own defense, it is not listed on the Secret History list (any longer).
It appears to only have been published as a broadside by Lavendier Books in 2006 and you, yourself state that it is, "For completist nuts only." That pretty much describes me and a number of others that can be found here regularly.
As far as getting a copy, the e-bay link on the WORKS page is dead (and can be removed now). However, Abebooks has two copies available for $35.00 from a seller in Providence (up in HPL country).
Thanks, for the heads-up about He Is Legend, Paul. Now I am off to buy it instead of waiting for a used copy...should've just done that anyway (dur).

Well, it appears that "Interlude at Duane's" appears in a book called "The deadly Bride" by Ed Gorman & Martin Greenberg, which could be just a reprinting of the "Night Screams" book that previously had that in it! Also, where can I locate a copy of "Do-gooder"? AND...what is "Home Repairs"? When I try to look it up, all I get is home improvement books! :-(
And, while I did manage to locate a 1st edition of "Artifact", I cannot find any listing for "Recalled", if you could also kindly tell me what that is!
many thanks,
Lexx

FPW's bibliography that many have mentioned, above, is located at this link. FPW himself says (at the top of the bibliography) that it is up to date as of January 2009.
"Interlude At Duane's" is listed as being published in both Deadly Bride (2006) and in Thriller (2006)...but it will be reprinted in FPW's short story collection Aftershock and others next month along with "Aryans and Absynth". I do NOT believe (and FPW's bibliogrpahy does not list) that "...Duane's" ever appeared in Night Screams (1996) so I wouldn't count on finding it there.
"Do-Gooder" was a 500 word story published only by Lavendier Books. It can, these days, only be found from independent/used sellers. E-bay currently has a copy for $35 and AbeBooks.com has two listed by the same seller for $35.
"Home Repairs" was a short story originally published in Cold Blood, a collection edited by Richard Chizmar in 1991. Abebooks has numerous copies, as does Amazon and likely e-bay as well. The story was incorporated into the Jack novel Conspiracies.
Recalled (it is NOT listed in the bibliography). The only place that I can find it listed is in the Richard Matheson tribute book He Is Legend, published by Gauntlet Press. This book is currently on-sale, new for $50 as a numbered but unsigned edition.
Can't help with Artifact since I do not collect outside the Ally-Adversary Cycle (yet).

Now Abebooks has only one copy of Do-Gooder left...I just bought the other one.
Heh.
