The EBW 5 Saga continues

Some markings (aka words scratched into the vinyl) are: "CHEMSTDj-12-A2" The 2 is subscript (meaning below the A, like the opposite of A squared), "Mike's-The Exchange", and "JBAD". It weights about 5.5 +/- .5 onces. And there is some adheisive at 9 O'clock on the label. The back label is solid black.
Once again, I'll have the pictures up by tonight but I thought I should post some information about the record to compare it to anyone else that baught an EBW5 from the recent round of EBW5's on ebay.

the fake one's are not as while on the label and the writing is not as sharp as the real thing
The fake one's are not as .....what? Your sentence doesn't make sense.

then buy the japan edition of the singles that had ebw 5 and problems solved. Wish those bastard bootleggers at least put that on vinyl, rather than that joke that is on the fake version
It was my understanding that the japan singles 03 didn't really have the EBW version, it was just mislabelled? I seem to remember a thread about it. Anyone clarify on this?

It's just something else that is scratched into the vinyl. I don't know any background behind it. Maybe someone that owned the record for a while?

Someone of you should know.
I know what Biff means he also posted it into an other thread 2 weeks ago.

i'm pretty sure this was a bootleg too. the recording levels on this record are far too low and the mid to high range frequencies fail to make an impact, it sounds very flat. but on the positive side the bootlegger did put the EBW 5 mix on this vinyl.

haha.. sorry didn't proof read that one. what I meant to say was white, not while. so the labels on the fake ones are white, however, the real ones are brighter white. in other words the fake ones are off-white, a little darker and what not, probably from being taken of the internet. The writting on the bootlegs is also a little pixelated and blurred on the edges, on the orig version the writting is very sharp
I thought they put ebw 5 on the japan version.. d'oh! least i didn't buy it and loose more money

This is what I have heard in the past. Does the picture of mine look like a bootleg or real? Do you need a higher quality picture? I looked closely for pixely label and what not. I'm still a lil skeptical that I got a real copy since I've only seen one EBW 5 on ebay in TWO years.
