Can anyone confirm that they all came as plain white labels w/ fold-out sleeves? Not that I can afford to go after it, but those are the kinds of traits that would make a bidder a little suspicious. I've never seen a copy in person of course. Just curious to know if it's the real deal
Don't know about the white label, but the PS is the original.

Label is fine, glad I sold mine when I did, talk about timing, phewwww. Let's see if it hits the 2K mark.

You're right, hard to tell though. What a bastard. The buyer'll be pissed off when he figures that out.

Heh, I don't understand the "still sealed" craze at all.

Any chance of this being the original?

It could very well be, although...

Play it safe and ask for a scan.

If it's an original that's a very good price.

Just be wary of this wording in the description:

"WAS RELEASED"

The words proceeding should say: ..but now on Strikeforce Records!

Has anyone seen the Retrospect guy sell an original, OOP CD before? I haven't. It's very romantic thinking, that the biggest bootleg/unofficial rereleases seller is offering the original this one time ;)

And he doesn't mention "original" even once. If it was the original, he would have used that word 100 times.

I guess it's a boot. I have an original copy for trade by the way, but I guess I need to make myself a decent wantlist first.
