That has been my biggest problem with it all in 40 years of collecting. Navigating a course through some serous rip off merchants. I have been very lucky to have met some superb suppliers along the way who would genuinely look out for stuff for me. They still do too.
    After the reissue of HTDAAB this year, I thought they might follow up with more, but maybe sales on that made them reluctant...


  2. I had this and it broke a few months ago. Couldn't get JT tickets then this...

    They could easily make a market for this fantastic album. It deserves the accolade of a stand alone release in my opinion. Just look at some of my earlier posts of the amount of promo material i have around Zooropa.
    Someone should have the vision to make a box set, surely!
    Exactly!
  4. If they release Man as the last album there should be a boxest, the artwork will Boy on one side, Man on the other, including all albums

    I think that the overload of U2 would have been too much this year after years of nothing previously. Maybe POP will see a 25th anniversary. Who knows. If they can reissue other albums this year then why not the better two of the lot. Zooropa and POP. I should imagine sales and quantity of pressings would dictate the market.
  6. Those glasses came in a nice holder inside the Uber Deluxe box set. It is quite a wonderful design and a lovely item to have in my collection. Only tried the shades on once! They are back in the pouch resting.
  7. Talking about high prices on 90-00 lps as Pop or HTDAAB...they are more rare than the others old just because they came out in a moment of vinyl-zero-interest in the world.they didn't print as many copies as For the 80's and they didn't sell that much.only maniacs Like me or elizium or maybe blueeyedboy bought them at the time of issue.we now own something very rare and expensive.hard to find ( passengers For example ) and sellers Know it.
    Look out For so many fakes around....like ATYCLB Picture lp or else
    Who b.t.w. Got those albums...well.take care
