Is the Ten yellow digipak being bootlegged?

There are so many of them on the bay at the moment (well 5, but considering there's only 5000 of them, thats a lot).

Given the bootlegging of the basketball picture disc, then I reckon that more PJ fakes are finding their way onto the market.

I think it's clearly possible.

But... are we sure there are ONLY 5000 "official" copies?

I'm guessing there were 5,000 made of the limited edition version with the black circle sticker (31-468884-12) and then another run of the version without a sticker (01-468884-13)...

Maybe Stu, its definitely possible, especially when some of them have mint yellow spines. most i see have some element of fading on them

But the value of these isnt so high so would it be worth it? interesting

My spine is still yellow and it's from the early 90s. You should avoid direct sunlight.

This yellow digipak was one of my favorite CD from my collection during the 90's (got the black sticker release).
But now... it seems less rare than any other maxi CD promo on the market and declined definitively in my heart, bootlegged or not.

I'm 100% agree with you.

That's how I keep all my Mogwai. I also never feed them after midnight.
