I don't care what your opinion is dude, just pointing out that you don't need to moan, because you can get the record without it! Everyone can be happy!

lol

nobody cares about your opinion either, yet you always comment on everything - that's the point of a forum right?
and "moan"?!

i don't give a damn about that stupid lighter. doesn't change the fact that selling a "special edition" with some cheap 10 cent lighter for a price 2,50 pounds higher than the regular release is a straight RIP OFF! doesn't matter if you can buy the other version either, it's still a rip off. so why do you even bring that up and reply like that? got butt hurt because you paid stupid extra money for something you can't even use while you thought you just got a nice gadget for free?

Fucking hell mate, sorry if I've pissed you off some how.
I'm happy to buy the version, the lighters a nice little extra (I'm a sucker for extras), plus it was exclusive to a shop that has a bang on selection ran by a solid group of dudes, that I'm more than happy to support so they can keep doing what they do.
I'm just surprised that you seem so angry about something that caters perfectly for the people that don't want and those that do. It's not like you're forced to buy the 10 quid version, it's 40 out of a few hundred :S
Butthurt lol, grow the fuck up.

...says the one who disregards every "negative" comment as "moaning".
i'm not angry or offended in the slightest way, i was having a laugh when i saw that. i feel some labels could shit in a bag and sell that as an special edition and some ppl would still happily buy it and pay extra money. that said i like extras same way, but some guys are really taking the piss.

No mate, I respect plenty of negative opinions on here, quick scan of my posts will see that.
There are some labels that take the opportunity to rip people off, but in fairness, they've given the opportunity for people to buy the record on it's own at a fair price. If the only option was 10 quid with the extras, I'd buy it, but agree with you that it's a rip off. That's my only point, you can still get the tunes at regular price if that's all you want.
I've made that point many times that people will buy anything as long as it says "special edition", but ultimately, who are we to tell people what to spend their money on? We all have our vices!
Soz for any aggy business dude.

clearly overpriced for a lighter but I love all the little extra bits when you buy stuff from RWD FWD so just thought fuck it why not, not exactly breaking the bank
