So I have two of the Depeche Mode deluxe re-issue CD/DVD pairs that came in a cool plastic slip-case which was bobbled a bit like a condom. Somehow, by loaning one out I think, I've lost one of the slips. Damn it!
I've got most of the Cure re-issues on CD too (except "the head on the door"). I picked up the Top late (last August), and it didn't come with a slipcase. Instead, the "deluxe edition" frosted bit at the bottom is like a layer of tape that has been applied around the bottom of the CD and had to be cut at the opening. I thought at the time, cheapskates. I suspect the label are too cheap to bother making the slips for later issues of the release.
Then I picked up TDS deluxe for Christmas, and that had the tape thing too! Goddamnit
Are the slipcases on the way out? Am I just unlucky? Does anyone know of a reasonably reliable way of getting replacements?
