It's not real. There is a site that let's you put whatever text you want on those things.

I know a lot of you guys have already heard the album but I decided to wait until I got the CD, which I did today. I'm on my second listen right now, I don't think I can find the right words to convey just how great I think it is.

I'm hoping mine comes tomorrow. At the very least on or before Tuesday. I don't wanna have to wait around to hear the Bleed Well acoustic. And I refuse to download and listen to it. I've decided to follow JenX's honorable path by not listening to the bonus tracks till I get the CD.

Yeah, me too. I'm really really tempted to download the acoustic 'BW', but I want to get my cd first...

Yes it's the same version as the heartagram limited. Recordstore imported 500 to sell. It's called a UK exclusive coz no other shops are selling that version.

ah, ok.. thanks! ;D

i thought it would be numbered or something like that...

It seems, that at least for the european market that the ltd. edition is really "limited"

I've been in 4 stores today. 2 of them had it listed, but didn't know how many they get and the date! (Exactly as it was with the DL ltd., which was available 2 weeks after the normal edition). The other 2 said that they get only 5 units, but didn't know anything about the release date.

There is no DVD. The special edition is 2 disc, and for some reason alot of shops thought it was a DVD.

A bunch of questions for the Daedalus one...
With the normal special, what type of paper is used in the booklet?
Is it glossy? Or matt quality (like I imagine the limited specials paper is).
Also, is it only lyrics on the pages... or are there pictures too?

I don't know, alas I don't have mine yet. I just get to look at them every day at work till Tuesday. Which is odd because you have to have a key to get into the electronics stock room, and I don't normally have it. I have to come up with creative ways for needing it. I am going to talk to our entertainment guy about me keeping the shipper case the VDs came in. It has a few big stickers on it saying "HIM VENUS DOOM" and then store related information like barcodes and shit, along with a few warnings about breaking street date. It'd just be neat to keep my VD copies in it.
Our store only has 7 SEs and 15 regulars right now which worries me. We'll probably get more over the weekend, but since I'm buying 2 each myself, that doesn't leave much for anyone else. Our store is a high volume store (number 2 in music and movies sales in the region, WOO!) and if we're only getting that many, it leaves me concerned about low volume stores around the country. However, Target is pushing the CD fairly hard so I expect us to get more.

the same as the limited pretty much the lyrics seem to be written a bit  differently. but all the same artwork.

I'd just call whatever shops are near you and ask if they have the special edition. Call them first thing in the morning and ask if they can hold a copy for you. People do it to us all the time, hell, I'm putting my copies of VD on hold Monday night before I leave work! Ahh the benefits of management!

10 percent discount. I'm spending $55.92 (2 Reg, 2 SE) before sales tax, which brings it up to $60.53. My discount brings it back down to about $54.48 after tax. 6 fucking dollars saved!

Good luck with that. :-\ I too have yet to come across the special edition. Which is fine with me, though, 'cause I was more interested in getting the regular one anyway.
