Im intrested in buying an original copy of live like a suicide on vinyl. How do i know if a copy is authentic or not? im probably going to have to buy off a website or most likely ebay. Just some general info on how i could get a copy/price/etc would be helpful

Thanks

I know it might sound strange, but I don't think there are that many counterfeits of LLAS out there. Just in case, beware of very vivid colours on the sleeve, and make sure the label on the vinyl itself is well-centered. If it's off center, it's a good indication that the copy is fake.
The only real attempt of rip-off I've seen on ebay, and I've seen it regularly, is people trying to pass the Lies EP as LLAS. So FYI, if the picture of the cover has the Geffen logo and a barcode, IT IS NOT LLAS. It's the back cover of Lies.

Hope this will help !

^yeah i have seen that many times...

like Pandora said, be sure it doesnt have the geffen label on it, or it is the back of the Lies LP

Hmm, how rare is the LLAS cassette? And how many was made? 5000 of each?

Good question. I've always wondered if 10000 was just the number of vinyls, or both formats combined. It's hard to say. All I know is the cassette seems to be scarcer than the vinyl.

The number of times ive emailed ebay sellers that are trying to sell lies as suicide is unbeleivable.
Most of the time its a common mistake on behalf of the seller.....but you still get some that are out to rip off the fans and make a quick buck!.( in most cases its a few big bucks unfortunately)
As Stated earlier just keep a look out for the geffen insignia and the barcode....also make sure the same 4 songs are on both sides.

ebay always has at least one copy. I recommend you not to pay over $150 for it.
