yeah...well...remember...the rest of the world isn't as sophisticated as us!!!!

besides...if it hadn't been for the grace of whichever NOOLer found out about that HMV deal...I might have had to pay full price myself!!!

or maybe I would be bidding on this thing...

snicker snicker!!!

It's exactly what's written on it.. "Let's G"

We still wonder if it's intentionnal since it's not the full Let's Go anyways... :wink:

BTW Shug.. somebody is selling out 10+ promo VHS PAL copies of videos on EBay, 1$ each I think.. I know it's not the end price, but it's something someone like you might like.

They have the original GAWI video.. the one I don't have :cry:

P/S: I meant original promo single video tapes..

"Lets G.." is a edited version of the track "Lets Go" which appeared on the Salvation soundtrack in 1987.

The track listed on Disc 2 as "Lets Go" is in fact the vocals added version first released in 1994/95 as "Lets Go (Nothing For Me)" and not the original "Lets Go".

Hope that helps.

Isnt that the one with the flowery shirt?

I suppose it was inevitable - after all, if a limited release is made of something the fans want, then it's obvious that not everyone who wants it is gonna get it.

And why NOT?:D

Good question...i live in Spain, and here it's not easy to find that kind of stuff. And I got Retro a few days ago with the bonus disc....without many problems. Obviously the bonus disc won't live forever. How many copies are on sale? 12000 in the UK?

Yep, that was my point.

6 Jan 2003, 13:09

Well, if I bought the local edition without knowning about the bonus disc, then see that on EBay...

I guess that would be the way to want it...!

Remind me to add that fine answer to our (currently very empty) FAQ section!

Thank you!

So exactly how many of the 5th disc will appear on the US version? 20,000? 5,000?

8 Jan 2003, 09:51

It supposed to be 3000.

Also, someone is selling CD-r copies of the bonus disk for 10 pounds each right on our own website. Forget the Ebayers, the opportunists are right here amongst us. If a friend of mine wanted the bonus disk, I would just send him the mp3's for nothing. Charging 1/3 the box price for a copy of the disk is rediculious.

Somebody is selling this? I should visit the Buy/Sell/Trade forum once in a while...

Time to tell them to take their opportunistic personality back to Ebay, or worse yet Half.com
