A friend of mine has got a 'promo' of Earth Vs Wildhearts and it is signed on the sleeve by the band.

Any one any clue what this is worth?

It is not for sale so need to say "£2 and I'll buy it" :lol:

;)

Also only has 11 tracks on it. And Caffeine Bomb not present so genuine promo copy (I assume, correct me if I am wrong please).

Cheers

Yep, I'd imagine it's a 1st pressing promo.

No idea what it's worth though, sorry.

Have you tried 'record collector' or any of the other mags?

Never read any of them, was jsut hoping for a rough guide, I took a guess at £40 ish, but wondered if anyone else would agree or disagree.

Would 'record collector' list signed stuff aswell?

I've looked on www.eil.com and www.netsounds.com and they dont seem to have any details on the first pressing :(

I don't actually know whether they would have promo'd the second release (apart from a few test pressings) as the only new track on it had already been a single so would already be available to the people who promos usually go to. I don't recall seeing a review of it either, they probably just printed a little update note in the magazines.

Can't say I've read it more than once in a shop, but RC might give some idea about promos - have a flick through next time you're in Smith's.

I suppose in the end, it's worth what someone's willing to pay for it...

...so I'll give you 2 quid for it. :wink:
