no tracklisting but a nice picture, happy perving.

doesn't the "7 inch poster" turn out to be a big fuck off poster of all the 7" single covers?

i can hear the orders now.

our currency is nosediving at the moment - this now would cost me the equivalent of twenty pounds more than if i had ordered blind about a week ago.

i'll have to see if Europe and the US can fix their economies like China said in the next couple of weeks.

Aye but the artwork for the TITD CD is different than the HMV single. I would love them just a little bit if they made that CD1 exclusive to the £165 box set for giggles and shit.

hmn, how happy would people be if the box set featured different artwork to the HMV version of the CD single, and felt obliged to buy it just for that?

Theres an advert for the O2 gig in the new Mojo and the picture looks like this one. She seems to be wearing King Arthurs crown. Thieving bitch.

i'm looking at this box set, looking at my PFAYM special edition that arrived today, looking at my JFPL special edition.

i know this idea has come up before, but surely the bigger seller would be re-issuing all the albums in the style of the JFPL/PFAYM special edition sets, having the 2nd disc full of relevant to era non-album singles, b-sides, etc? if they are "closing a period" now, a full on retrospective like that would make more sense, especially as the "groundwork" has been done with the Japan only 2 CD versions.

If you forget the You Love Us Heavenly single. Then yes I guess so. Or the fact that half the singles weren't released as 7"
