Anyone in the UK/Europe trade want to trade Flying high?

TRADE? Send UK for my US version... Obviously, both would be the new record store day one not the 1981.

There are different versions? The store I went to hadn't got one single copy and I was told it was a US release. That being the reason for slim availability.

Rough Trade record shop had a RSD and i seen a copy from a UK seller on ebay. So it was available out side of the USA.

Sure it was available in Europe but not enough copies found their way to Finland. I believe it was the US version sold in Europe too.

Those who managed to get a one in Europe, please check your copy and tell us which version is it, thanks.

You can check the back. I put up a front and back of the US version on "Record store day" post. I saw a small scan of a UK and they indeed looked different. UK has the Sony logo. Different pressing plant's (3 white lines on UK instead of 2 on US). Probably not a small batch...

I don't think there just were only 500 made. A store down the road only had 3 on Saturday and I saw that 2 were bought leaving 1 but I went back the next day and there were 4... and I'm still told I can buy 1 per day. Could of been a BS story - someone else put 2,500 which what do sharon and Ozzy know about limited editions except you get more money if you call it that.

looks like there are 2 versions: one with big hole one with small hole so one is European the other is US pressed. looking at it I doubt it was pressed only at 500 copies... selling / reselling it so cheap!!!

Bought one off eBay yesterday, seller is from UK. Very hard to find at least where I live...

[hansolo]

Nobody? I guess it would be easier to buy off ebay. More $$. I went to the record store on Tuesday afternoon and they still had 2 singles left. I bought one and the guy I talked to Monday said I could take the Ozzy poster off the wall. Then another dude said, "I'll get you one without tape." He came out of the back with one and I was so blown away. I came in once per day - Saturday, Sunday, Monday, etc. I was like blah, blah, BOX SET, blah, DVD, Blah, Picture discs... I gotta go give these guys some more business. But yeah, they didn't know anything about an Ozzy box set...

I received my UK RSD FHA single and it's a thicker stock where the US version tends to bend/give because of the thinner sleeve paper. I like the UK version better!
