    I just picked it up at auction for US$55, but it sure is a fake. Some points make it clear that it is not original:

    THE WEIGHT OF THE DISC (SEEMS TO HAVE 180 GRAMS); THE FINISH OF THE PACKAGING IS TYPICAL OF NEW PRESSINGS; THE DISC BAG WHICH IS PAPER AND IS VERY WHITE (IT SHOULD BE MORE YELLOWISH); THE WRINKLE AROUND THE LABEL THAT DOESN'T EXIST. Another important point is the matrices as previously reported:

    Side A : 843 191 1 S1 = 1 670 08 111
    Side B : 843 191 1 S2 = 1 670 08 111

    The material is of high quality, a fake worthy of a MOV, but unfortunately my copy has everything to be a fake.

      Must have for the grunge fans! Precursors of the entire Seattle movement

        I pay 22€ (Mint) in spain, must be a bootleg but i can´t find any diference wiyh the original press.

          my copy has the following matrix numbers:

          Side A : 843 191 1 S1 = 1 670 08 111
          Side B : 843 191 1 S2 = 1 670 08 111

          Can anyone tell me if it's teh original press?...Personally i don't think so...

            Looks like someone is making good copies of this version. I have the exact same version as Sootheboy:

            My copy:
            Side 1
            843 191 1 S1=1 670 08 111

            Side 2
            843 191 1 S2=1 670 08 111

            The original from 1990:
            Side 1
            843 191 1 S1=1 670 07 111

            Everything else is exactly the same, but I paid 15 Euros for it in a record store. It was in the used records section, but it's in NM, M condition. I doubt it's the legit 1990 version, obviously we couldn't all have come across this gem for so little money. Nevertheless, it's worth it!

              I have paid 39€ for it
              I have the same Question as Snow_Records
              which makes me think there's a bootleg version of this out there that's nearly perfect. Anybody know if there's something like that? All numbers match, matrix runouts, notes, bar code, labels - everything.
              We need further Informations to sure wich copy it is

                Found a copy almost for luck... It sounds great, it's like new... But I just paid 20 euros for it. I double check and triple check all the references to be sure... It's an European copy. How can it cost 200 euros???

                  I just bought a copy of this for $34.99 from a very knowledgeable store, which makes me think there's a bootleg version of this out there that's nearly perfect. Anybody know if there's something like that? All numbers match, matrix runouts, notes, bar code, labels - everything.
