Someone said that is "illegal" for a shop to sell a import for more than the domestic if the domestic has been released in the states. Let me make sure I understood this correct! The local shop has done this a few times and I would either tell them to be nice and have them correct a price OR bitch and make a scene. Depends on my mood. If you ever go to NOISE NOISE NOISE (GONZI that includes you) you would know what I mean! Then again they were the ones who were selling the IMPORT RDJ for $13. So they could be doing something right. Again it depends what time of the month it is when you go there! peace gil

No, I said that it's a violation of US copyright law for companies to import non-US pressings of releases unless the importer has the permission of the US copyright holder. I'm not sure how you managed to interpret that the way you interpreted it. -- ::: Lazlo (lazlo@swcp.com; http://www.swcp.com/lazlo)
