^^^ As long as your cd press code is DIDX-043197 01 * ** *******, then you have an OG copy, if the press code reads anything else then you have a repress.

some time ago someone posted an url to one Japanese CD store on this site and I dropped then an email about the CDs they sold. I got an answer some time ago. He claimed that they had contacted each individual artist and were allowed to repress their CDs. they had that 2-11 too as well as hella other rare shit.

They are probably lying to you. There is no way some random guy in Japan is gonna be able to track down some random street cat in the Bay or the South....they are hard enough to find in their own backyard!!

im thinking about bidding on it.
If it does turn out to be a japan repress,....what does that mean? Do they just recreate what the original would look like? Is there any way to tell if what you have is a japan repress?

why is it that this seller has a ounce of game cd to sell every few weeks? (germany seller)
Basically this seller only sells reprints, and all the reprints come from that Japanese online store that we all know about. The way you can tell that it is a Japanese reprinted cd is by the press code having the letters "H-TKY" in it, like the G-Slimm cd and many others he has up for auction right now. They will also have a long bar code style line in the press code, which I am not sure the purpose of.

Also if it isn't a reprint that he is selling, he gets his buddies or a secondary account to bid the cd up more than it would sell for. Then when the auction ends he just offers a "second chance" to the person he outbid in hopes of selling it. It seems that most people don't take the second chance offer though, since he re-lists those cds a few weeks later, and then sadly repeats the cycle in the next auction.
