This question is for those hard core vinyl collectors, I believe the vs picture disc is not a oficial release (I read that here in the board) but why is so hard to find? All the other picture disc are easy to find. The other question is, in the collection I saw that the only oficial ten picture disc is from brazil? What about the EU (UK I think) one?

Thanks and please I want a philosophical disertation about this issue! I love to read the detailed informaion that some members give, it seems like some of your worked for Epic!

Thanks!

check here:

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=567&st=0&sk=t&sd=a&hilit=brazil

there are only 3 pdk:

-the basket: see the thread about how recognize the original old copies from the brand new fake copies

-Vs: it's a fake...i don' t know if in this moment it can be on ebay...but in past, u alaways found it...and price was about 20-30 euro

-Ten: the braz version is the only version we known...in past we read about an uk version...listed as british version in many online stores but when u bought it, u discovered that it was the braz.
Many members have a copy...all the same...bought especially form Aural site that it's a trusted store about vinyls..
as for many others pdk...especially when they come from south america, there are heavy doubts about its legitimty...
at moment we can't prove if there is another uk version or if it's an offical item...it's listed as "suspect " item!!! :roll:

not a philosophical disertation but just all the info we have in this moment..

why? What do you see on it that makes you think that? I'm new on all this, so I'm a little worried about buying fakes. The other day I was about to buy a green "marbled" promo Vs vinyl, but I couldn't find it on the site under any category, so I didn't pull the trigger... Did I missed something good or did I save some money?

simply cause the audio quality is very bad ...i had two copies ...both bad audio and so also other collectors...second thing ....i don't believe ...only this ....i think it is a boot and not from brasil ...i think it comes from europe ...maybe uk, maybe italy??? don't know

I belive too that the TEN PDK (from Brasil) is a fake, there are lots of fake since lots of years that come from SA and...Germany... I remember when I gone to the vinyl conventions that there were lots of PDK from Nirvana, Metallica, Pink Floyd, U2, Beatles, Kraftwerk, Guns etc....

Another thing is the price, those are fakes but really nice so if you pay a cheap price is a nice addiction to your collection
