If you do a search for Chinese Democracy on Amazon, WTTJ comes up, click WTTJ, and CD come up.

That just confirms my guess in my last post.
I'd be interested in Jarmo's opinion on this.....

So, like, Are we going to see it? And is soon the word?
(That will always be one of my favorite quotes.. whoever made that remix of "Chinese Democracy" with that line in it, you make me laugh every damn time I play it)
In all sincerity, I've placed a call to my friend to see if he can pry any info out of his Geffen contacts. Last time I tried this I got a terse "No Comment" - but we'll see if it proves any more lucrative this time around.

I gues the price has nothing to say. Looks like they just replaced the title on the WTTJ preorder-page with Chinese democracy and are now awaiting further info from the label. Let's be honest, folks, this could only mean a few things.
First: Are we sure Amazon only lists a release when the record company told them to to so?
I'd say YES. Anything else doesn't make any sense.
Second: 2025 is a default date.
So what does it mean?
Amazon was told last month to list WTTJ. It is unsure if Universal actually intended to release that one or if they just did it as a message to Axl.
Now they were told to list CD instead. Could mean two things: CD is indeed on the way. Or maybe Geffen is again trying to force Axl. I think the first speculation is more realistic.

As usual logic points us in what seems the only possible correct direction.....
.... and then you realise you live in GNR bizarro world where this can so easily be total crap.
@#$%Funker
PS Can I confirm that in all these years, this is the first time that Amazon have EVER listed Chinese Democracy?

I buy lots of stuff on Amazon, and over the years I've never seen CD listed.

I can confirm on the Amazon listing, too - CD has never been listed there.
(Not even when the Dec 3, 2002 thing was happening with the print ads and all that)

By the way, when this thread was started the sales rank was about 15000 or something like that.
How much is it now? 3000?
Are the ranks based on clicks or on preorders?
If they're based on preorders, it should soon be in the first ranks and then there will be far more publicity to that listing.

I doubt Amazon would mess around with jokes considering that a are a major online store. ?To agree with everyone, this is the first time I have ever seen CD listed too. ?If CD were to be released at a 12 midnight store opening on
Dec 31, what would you do go out and celebrate New Years or go get Chinese Democracy?\
CD switched back to WTTJ, and is now around 2000 sales

It does NOT switch back. Don't use a link, look for it by typing in "guns n roses chinese democracy" on the Amazon search and you'll get directly to the CD-page.

Has anyone bought this?
How come a CD selling website gets the scoop?

It's gonna be the no1 sales "20 yrs" previous to the release date.
Isn't it already record breaking?

I wonder why....
If this or that had been told by the label, they'd know the labal.
I think it's another party who told them to put this.
