i was at the record store here in town today and i saw a used copy of The Aeoplane Flies High box set for 7 dollars so i quickly snatched it much to my girlfriends dismay. but when i opened it up i saw that it was missing the Thirty-Three single. so i went up to the counter and i asked the dude there if it was priced as such because it was incomplete. he was like, "oh, um, let me go ask my manager." then the manager said to sell it to me for 3 dollars. it's in really good shape and nothing was written in the "this belongs to" section. so i was really happy.

how hard it is it to find a Thirty-Three single? does the box set have a different pressing than the one that came out on its own?

My retarded teenage self put a "This Belongs to Christopher" sticker in that section and I tried, only to make things worse, to rip it off a few years ago. Too bad. I've still never replaced my BWBW single (BWBW, Tonight Tonight, and Thirty Three were stolen years ago) though I do have it on CD-R.

after looking at your links i feel stupid. i should've remembered that Thirty-Three was only released as a promo and not a commercial single. i guess it'll be much easier to make sure i buy the correct one.

as a 6 track single only in Japan and, apparently, the National League. anyone know what type of ID number(s) i should be looking for to get one that goes with TAFH?

TAFH version will be in a regular CD case
all the others were slim cases iirc. not sure about japan.

that's the back cover of thirtythree as it is exclusively from TAFH.

i paid the equivalent of 30 dollars about 7 years ago at a local record shop. i dont know why you've found it so hard not to type in 'smashing pumpkins thirty three' into ebay before coming here asking about it. and yes its the 6 track version

just because you have a 6 track version does not mean it's one from the box. it will very likely be one that was released on its own, in a slim cd case.

this might be unimportant to most, but i have the idea that thedeuce does care, hence all the questions.

edit: if the picture is from the cd that is being sold, and it has in fact 6 tracks (instead of 4), then i believe this is from the box though. the only way to know for sure is to ask the seller for the code on the spine.

he got the box for 3 bucks. the other cd i linked to is 99 cents +2.99 postage. if he really cares then he can buy the complete box again.

Are they that expensive on eBay or other places? I haven't eBay searched for Pumpkin shit in a while to spare my bank account undue harm but I remember seeing a bunch of them on there last time I looked.

And since most of you have chimed in: I got mine for free from my parents the year it came out for Christmas. It's still in impeccable condition (albeit a little dusty) and I never wrote in the sticker inside the lid. Why? Because even then I was super anal.

to see what release you have, you need to take a look at the white piece of paper with the barcode.

Hey Dick Douche, it is actually the third pressing so now you can get your finger crossed hand out of your but.

wow! cool! mine's a first (US) pressing.

yes the "white piece of paper with the barcode" was included in my purchase. as well as a piece of styrofoam, or whatever. i assume this came with the original issue? weird that it would have those two things, but be missing one of the singles.

thanks for all the links!

affirmative. i believe this was placed on top of the cds and under the lid, to avoid the cds damaging the box while being transported/stored.
