A test pressing of More -
Clicky - Think it's real?
A triple CD box set of the 3 LPs -
Clicky - Is it just gonna be the 3 CDs put in a box, or is it official?
A test pressing of Floodland -
Clicky - Same with the More pressing.
And finally, a sampler of Vision Thing -
Clicky - Looks very appealing.
Gentlemen, Ladies, I implore of thee, knowledge on whether any of these are official or not. And you never know, soon I might try to get a couple, or at least the VT sampler. Unless you beat me to it.

All are real & official, wether the black label promo's should be called test pressing or not is something to debate (but I'd call them promo's nevertheless) ...
The More & Floodland promo's are overpriced you should be able to find them for £4 or slightly more in a shop, the 3 CD box set are the standard European CD releases put in a box nothing special ...
The Vison Thing sampler is a very nice item imho, one sided pressing etc... you should get it
Dark.
Btw. the real Floodland Test Pressing has
pink labels

I have all these items (except the 3 CD bx set). I always thought the no writing on the labels were promos. I have VT, Dr. Jeep, and More (I think!).

You have no idea how much I want that sampler. But there's a problem. It's from Australia, and p+p costs AU$15.
Mind you, if I win on it, AU$25 is roughly £10, so...

The triple box is basically :
FALAA (1992 Remaster)
Floodland
Vision Thing
All german prints in a Australian WEA cardboard sleeve.
I picked mine up off Amazon for about 15 quid.

The most wanted (and nicest imo) of the black label promo's is the Lucretia 12" which came with a snakeskin pattern sleeve (SAM 443)
