Title: Help needed - fake or legit - jap only promo
Post by: wadey on September 17, 2009, 07:02:23 AM
i finally got myself a copy of the Jap only promo but i need some help trying to find out if its a legit copy or fake
im pretty sure its legit but not 100%
as you can see it is nearly a mint copy and looks unplayed
the record label looks to be centered with no visible white, it comes with a plastic inner which is arch shaped. the matrix is machine stamped. the letters on the spine are bold with a space between GN'R and Guns n' Roses
i paid ?36 inc shipping so if its fake its no big deal
any help would be appreciated  :)

It looks to be in great condition!

As you stated, this is the main way I know of telling if it's a boot or not too:

"the record label looks to be centered with no visible white"

so it looks pretty authentic to me!
