Join the Dots - HELP!

Can anyone explain to me why the 2004 release of Join the Dots is on Amazon for £36.99...

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Join-Dots-B-Sides-Rarities-Cure/dp/B00012SYV4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1293974726&sr=8-3

And the 2007 release is on at £21.99??
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Join-Dots-B-Sides-Rarities-Cure/dp/B000VRXO6O/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1293974726&sr=8-1

There doesn't seem to be any difference in the item descriptions, or am I missing something? :/ confused!!

Hello and Happy New Year!

There's only one release date for JTD, and that was in 2004. Amazon often has incorrect and/or duplicate/conflicting release dates listed for some items. As long as both listings describe the product as new and unopened, you should receive the same thing regardless of which you purchase. There may be different sellers or distributors for it, though, which would explain the price difference and the release date conflict. Be sure you factor in the postage & shipping costs when you compare prices, because those can vary as well.

Thanks Miss Lovecat & a very Happy New Year to you too!

I did look at the sellers (as that was my first thought) but they both looked to be Amazon - maybe one was .com and the other .co.uk?

All I wanted to be sure of was that the more expensive one wasn't somehow better - thanks for the advice, you've saved me a couple of quid! :)

Hello Cats! Hope you had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year to you too!

As you might have fathomed from this thread, it turns out Santa's a bit deaf, so I've had to take matters into my own hands! :)

Can't wait (excited!!!) :D

I know I'm behind the times with Cure releases but it does mean that I can get excited about stuff that's old news to almost everyone else!

How're you getting on with ObsCUREties?

Re: Join the Dots - HELP!

No worries - I am just glad you have been united with your lost demo! :) Hope it was worth the wait!
