    I think it's the first time that Fiction Records have pressed all of them on 180gram Colored Vinyl. Other companies have pressed them on standard black 180gram vinly, but not on 180 gram colored vinyl. So..they are kind of right, but.... seriously, I MUST HAVE THESE. The kicker is that if you live in the US and you are buying online from the UK, you know that you are going to be paying $40 - $75 if you get them at market price. With exchanage rates and shipping, my best guess is that buying all of these represses is going to be somewhere between $250 - $400.

    We really need to organize someone that will buy these and ship them to us...you know, Pay Pal them the money..etc.

    The even crazier thing is that I am a The Cure vinly collector and I generally buy two copies...one to play and one to keep wrapped up for "collecting" purposes, so I'm seriously screwed on this one.

    Well, another US fan hoping for a miracle...I must agree with a previous poster, at nearly a 300 - 400 dollar investment, it seems like I'll only ever have the chance to see them in a photograph. Guess I'll remain happy with my first printings of the original releases, at least I can say I bought those when they came out! OH, and the double entreat plus, which seems to be the only cure item headed to the states for this years RSD. Guess its a fair trade, we did get 6 Reflections shows over here. And I did manage to spend my entire years budget on getting to one. :-)
