I got the Amazon.com 7" that they listed as "Capitol," the CD is definitely Capitol (got mine from Amazon), but the 7" is still the EU Parlophone release. Figured as such, but wanted to put it out there.

Ok so at the moment, the official CD releases known so far are:

EU, US and Canadian

 

Promo's are:

2 UK versions and US version, right ?

Yes! :-). ...I'm 99% sure! :-)

Does anyone have both the US and Canadian ETIAW singles and can post the back cover, just to see the difference? :)

I only have the canadian one.

 

 

It's hard to see, but I think the only difference is at the bottom, last line, on the right hand side of the barcode: it says Made In Canada.

 

Well the line right above that also says the it's manufactured in Canada.

 

Also, I think the US one doesn't have the EMI logo I think

 

The Us one probably has a bit less writing on the back, and the FBI piracy warning logo.

 

Hope this kinda helps, but I'm looking into buying a US cardsleeve so as soon as I get it, I'll let you know

Thank you Evelien, so I should have the Canadian on its way soon.

 

I was looking for the US one, I've checked both amazon.com and newburycomics (bought from them twice before), it would be $10.35 with the first and $9.98 with the second to Europe, and they should both sell the Capitol only version :)

You've got it mostly right. US has the FBI piracy logo, then the Capitol logo, then the EMI logo across the back cover (above the tiny writing and UPC code). Then, at the very end, before the UPC number, it says "Printed in the USA."

 

 

Just got full Internet back up (yay!). So I can scan it later for you, if you still need it.:-)

Thank you girls, you're always so helpful..might as well order from amazon.com then, at least they send to Italy, while a lot of american ebayers don't or ask for expensive registered mail, I never had any problems with items from the US so it really bothers me that I'm missing on a lot of things because they had to deal with stupid Italian ebayers :(

If it means anything, I buy a LOT from amazon.ca, amazon.UK and amazon.de! They usually have better prices than a lot of ebayers and have better shipping rates. I haven't shipped to Italy in years, but I dont remember the rate being terribly different from other EU countries? I'd have gotten a second and sent it to you, but chances are Amazon gets better post rates. :-/

 

If you think of it, (for you doritji or axe) hit me up for any upcoming US releases you guys want. I get free shipping from Amazon to my house. Then it'd just be post USPS to you. (usually around $10 US for first class postage, 7-10 day, but sometimes cheaper, depends on the weight). Not sure how that compares with Amazon.com, but never hesitate to ask if I can get and send it cheaper for you three.

 

@doritji, I will totally get you the scan of the US ETIAW and any serial numbers from that vinyl. I'm on shift through Friday morning, so will try to get those to you that evening. :-)

Oh really thanks, for the moment the only thing I need could be the US capitol Etiaw, seeing that the only US proper capitol issue is the custom etiaw cd. If I decide to buy it I'll inform u :). If I need anything else I'll alert u. Really thanks!

Yeah I always check with the various amazon because it happened to me as well that they had a lower price, the only problem is that sometimes they have a few versions of a release listed but the description is not really helpful to understand what's the difference.

 

Thanks for offering to help, I'm gonna order from amazon.com this time, we'll see when LP5 is coming out if I'm gonna need your help :nice:

:-) no biggie. Like I said, amazon might be able to ship it cheaper most of the time. But if they ever try to inflate postage, I'm always here. :-). It's mostly fun to use google to translate the pages I can't work through on my own. :-)

Looks ilke we're all set for a new collectors era. there's already mention of limited editions :p

Wtf, I have to win a big amount of money.

Im exited about the limited edition of this album + paradise single :dance:

Wtf, I have to win a big amount of money.

 

 

Ditto

I'm worried to know how much the pop-up thing is going to cost :uhoh:

yes and just how limited it will be. I hope it's not like the Christmas Lights thingie. I wouldn't mind if it's somewhat limited, but it has to be possible to find for a decent price

Its an album ,cant be That limited :uhoh:

 

It will be VERY expensive:lol:

It'll probably be "limited" like the 7" singles box set. 50000 made or something gigantic like that. I'd guess $75 US retail. So SO anxious for the pre-order to start.
