Good question!. I just bought a copy off eBay (paid about $40 Australian) Are they (the various colored u2-3 vinyls) rare and collectable or not?

I would say it was a fake. First off, the 7" label on the vinyl was different. That is the label from the 12" version shown on the ebay picture.
7" Label was:

12" Label was:

I'm no expert mind you. I'm not even sure any of the 7" vinyls were numbered, but perhaps a more informed member may enlighten us. I would say if it was numbered though it would have been done in the same fashion as the 12" versions with a sticker on the front.

Yes, but the ebay one is a gold versrion something, the lower pic is the normal version. Seen already several different versions, how many are out there

Prefer the one with the sticker on the sleeve, but priceless

I was saying that the 7" versions had a different label regardless of colour. U2Wanderer which is generally a good staring point says nothing about a gold version. But like I say, maybe someone with more knowledge will reply

I think the gold / brown vinyls are essentially one and the same. Were they released individually or as part of the 4 play pack? ie; black 4 play, yellow 4 play, orange 4 play, white 4 play and gold / brown 4 play? A definitive list of the authentic 3 - out of control 7" vinyls would be nice. Have trawled the net re same but the best that I can find is the wanderer.org site. Anyone?
