We're thinking of creating our own app for iPhone where you can browse the LPs and singles or receive alerts for updates. But before that, we'd like to know how many of you have an iPhone or mean to buy one, if we may ask. Thank you.

		That was interesting, thank you all. Maybe it is a little too early now, although here we use iPhones and have felt its convenience in stores or attending a record fair. We might think of a very simple iPhone version for a start. Blackberry or Google phones would have to wait longer I'm afraid. Will keep you in the loop.

		i don't and may never, if it makes access easier for those that do or will, as orbinski says, then yeah it's got to be good for all, cheers DS

		yugung (51)	Jul, 28 7:26 PM
		I`ve no iphone. To much time spending at work without new media.

		jchristophem (153)	Jul, 28 1:32 PM
		Same here....hopefully.

		orbinski (39)	Jul, 28 11:45 AM
		Same as he said ↓ :)

		Have a 3GS right now and should have an iPhone 4 before the end of the year :-)

		orbinski (39)	Jul, 28 10:36 AM
		I have a 3GS, and using it to access the site about a 100 times a day. Primarily to view the forum, but it has on rare occasions been nice to access the collection when being on a fair, wondering if I already own a certain record or not. It is quite a hazzle to access the collection on a mobile device, but then again, writing objective C is a hazzle as well. Would probably be a good learning project to learn the language though.

		he,he:) No iphone here.

		vandeebgroup (67)	Jul, 28 5:36 AM
		I can't afford the monthly cost of an iphone because I spend too much on Cure records :)

		rafacure (442)	Jul, 27 8:40 PM
		Hi. I have an iphone, actually is my second iphone (a friend of mine bought for me the first generation iphone in the USA 8gb AT&T) then i bought here in Spain the 3GS 32 Gb. I always take a look at thecurerecords from my iphone when i am at home (at work i use my pc to check the site but here at home is impossible with the baby). So i think it would be interesting although the site works very well without the app. I mean for example facebook site is horrible to see through the iphone (very sliw) however the facebook app is ok for iphone. See you

		Would love one for my Blackberry!!

		Quick!! 5 day auction, must end yesterday! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Glove-Li...

		jchristophem (153)	Jul, 27 8:01 PM
		Looks like my warning was right...i was looking at this auction too and was expecting it to last longer, this guy is not to be trusted...

		wishful (5)	Jul, 27 7:00 PM
		Yea, I thought it ended early as well and here is a quote from this seller following the The Top W/L fiasco "Im never going to stop another auction again and hope you win the folder"

		secretkiss (0)	Jul, 27 8:59 AM
		OK is it me or was this item ended early?? It had 1 day 8hours to run last night, i 've just been on Ebay (10am UK time) and it has ended...am i going mad or what? And no prizes for guessing who won...

		easyjeje (156)	Jul, 26 6:58 PM
		This is not a test cover, but a media plan and info folder for record stores and radio/DJ's. This kind of media plan folder is very common in France (I worked as a record seller for many years and have kept a few hundred of this at home, from many indie/rock artists). Some were given with a promo CD/LP, some were given without CD/LP. I think this is less common in the UK, USA...

		amocure (1)	Jul, 26 6:18 PM
		Hello, i have a similar item, produced by Metronome in Germany, for the same album, with German text....it is a "salesmans info press".

		curemember (45)	Jul, 25 7:51 PM
		No bid for me. Have never seen before though.

		tsao (0)	Jul, 25 7:46 PM
		I have a copy. Mine comes with sticker and an extra product-fact squared sheet. No record either.

		orbinski (39)	Jul, 25 7:25 PM
		I have seen this before. It was then advertised as a salesmans folder, which came with no LP.

		jchristophem (153)	Jul, 25 7:12 PM
		By the way, had any of you heard of this one before? It looks more like an internal promo folder than a Test Cover to me...

Missing b-side

By webmaster

Jun, 14 8:54 PM

We've just received images of this record for the first time, thanks to new contributor Joqua. Apparently it is an ordinary easy to find record but not many of ours seem to have it. Anyway if Joqua or anyone else owning it can get scans we'd appreciate.

		i'll get the b-side picture taken soon.

		i can take hi quality photos, is there a email address i can send them to with out having to shrink the pictures?

		orbinski (39)	Jun, 15 6:25 AM
		The label is the same as the canadian Elektra, Is the canadian overlay made out of stickers, or is it printed like the Zimbabwe lp releases?

		zakiaaa (3)	Jun, 15 5:45 AM
		Even though this record does not show up very often on ebay, I think it can't be considered a 'rare' piece. Having said that, my experience is it never sells for the starting price, which means there are not a thousand copies around.

		easyjeje (156)	Jun, 14 9:47 PM
		I love it ! any chance to have scans of the sleeve ?

Gold stamp

By KyotoGirl (7)

Jun, 27 2009 9:53 AM

Do these copies always come with the gold promo stamp in the right bottom corner? I recently bought the pencil label vinyls and found out that there was a gold promo stamp on the sleeve, but on the upper right corner like the one on the A&M label ones. A case of the wrong vinyls in the wrong sleeve?

		Mine has a different stamp. It says "Not for fale Demonstration" but it's round.

		jrcure (5)	Feb, 18 8:36 PM

		I've been in numerous e-mail contact with the seller and it transpires it was being sold on behalf of a family member and while the owner knew its true value the seller did not. the owner then refused to sell leaving the guy who listed it for him in a bit of a difficult situation which was when he came up with the record being damaged story. For some reason I don't feel bitter but having missed out on a record I've wanted for 20 years I'm obviously very dissapointed.

		jchristophem (153)	Jul, 24 6:45 PM
		That is so bad, i can't believe....well actually i can,and that's what annoys me ....i would contact him and tell him i know he's still got the item and he's mulling over a better offer, and leave a really nasty feedback in CAPS...which isn't much to make you happier but what can you do...oh and obviously report him to Ebay...Sorry to read such bad stories.

		tsao (0)	Jul, 24 5:32 PM
		3 bastards and counting!

		john77 (21)	Jul, 24 12:25 PM
		Hi I have just emailed him (offered him £700 to see his response!) and got this reply Hi John, Ive taken it off because im having alot of offers and im still thinking what to do with it. Ive been told its worth a small fortune by so many cure fans and i only had it on for 45 mins. i have not decided what to do with it yet but im going to take the best offer i get and your the 3rd to offer me 700. But yes i still have it. Kind Regards Bonzai_Musik

		vandeebgroup (67)	Jul, 23 9:12 PM
		Yeah, two bastards for sure. Hopefully the person who stole the record from Wishful is no one here!

		tsao (0)	Jul, 23 8:27 PM
		Oh sorry, I misread you. So the belief is that someone has already offered more. Two bastards in the story then.

		tsao (0)	Jul, 23 8:24 PM
		Amazing, negative feedback at least. However before giving feedback, you may still have a chance if nobody in this Forum accepts any deal for this record. It'd be nice from everyone to stay away.

		vandeebgroup (67)	Jul, 23 7:15 PM
		What a bastard. Too bad there's nothing much you can do other than leave a negative. That's so frustrating.

		wishful (5)	Jul, 23 6:26 PM
		Congratulations are all a bit premature. The seller is now coming up with some story about a major scratch and couldn't possibly sell in that condition, which I believe is code for received a higher offer after the auction had finished.

		curemember (45)	Jul, 22 9:07 AM
		Hmmmm..vacation:( But big congratulations to you Wishful:) This record doesnt show up every day.

		vandeebgroup (67)	Jul, 20 2:53 PM
		Wow. Congratulations!

		tsao (0)	Jul, 20 9:59 AM
		Xmas gift in summer! Congrats wishful. How come was this auction was unnoticed? Sorry orbinski, don't know what you mean by someone else (kidding)

		jchristophem (153)	Jul, 20 9:16 AM
		Exactly.Keep it in the family :)

		orbinski (39)	Jul, 20 6:14 AM
		Bettet to you Than to someone Else :) congratulations!!!!!!!!!!

		wishful (5)	Jul, 20 5:58 AM
		Sorry... robbed by me.

Pictures of you box

By webmaster

Jul, 18 11:23 PM

Lecume, we believe this is a bootleg, but you did a great job sending all the pictures so we think it deserves at least to be shown and discussed here on the forum. It is also weird since we don't think we ever saw it before. First set of pics: http://www.thecurerecords.com/... Second set: http://www.thecurerecords.com/...

		Lecume (11)	Jul, 23 4:45 AM
		I think it's a lot of work to realise a bootleg that nobody knows but why not... since I collect items about cure, I know everything is possible :-) @vandee it's glued on a plain box and the green stickers are... green stickers... Help please !!!

		vandeebgroup (67)	Jul, 20 8:43 PM
		Interesting. How is the box made? Is it actually printed, or just a sheet glued to the outside of a plain box? What's with all the green circle stickers?
