This looks like a scam to me...I certainly haven't heard of such a thing, but wondered if anyone had any info:

    I don't have it, so I don't know...but it definitely looks like someone just replaced what was there with a poorly aligned pj logo, and is calling it a variant and charging double for it.

    lol jimbo how much do you want for your limited edtion spaceman tee :D

    the seller is a fool, im guessing he opened it up, span it round and resealed it.

  • A few weeks ago someone posted a thread asking if the Amazon vinyl pre-order was a different cover because the picture that they had up looked like the picture on ebay but more correctly aligned. I wonder if it is the same person? Or if the seller in this case just put the album sleeve back in wrong?

    Either way it is not originally sealed. Bunch of savages.

    EDIT: I found the Amazon link but they have since changed it to the real album art. Funny!
