Question regarding diff versions of Still Life

[lucifer1126]

Ok guys, maybe you Opeth experts can help me out.

So yesterday i went to a cd store and found 2 jewel case versions of the Still Life album used. Well...and another digipak which i dont care for since its so common.
Anyways, they were both 7.99 but they were different versions as i know that the original released in 1999 with a different barcode, and then there's the re-release on jewelcase in 2000 with a slipcase.

I couldn't decide which one to buy, so in the end i bought both. Thing is...after i get home, i really dont see much of a purpose keeping two, since the booklets are the same with difference of the cd-artwork and a slipcase.

So...do you guys have any suggestions on which one i should keep? and what should i do with the other one? should i return it...and get like $6 back store credit or should i sell it on ebay to opeth collectors?

Any suggestions would be appreciated...but please dont take it as a joke. Thanx guys.

I wouldn't have bought items in the first place unless I was a collector. Get rid of one copy and pick up something different.

Sorry for misunderstanding, but why do you need somebody to tell you which one to keep? Isn't it just a matter of keeping the one you preffer, and returning the other one to the store?

They're all the same mate. You only need one.

Why did you buy both? You dont seem to be a collector, so what makes the difference? it's the same music!

Maybe he thought one would be an ultra-rare, really valuable version, and he could get it for a steal at $7.99. Didn't someone on this board buy a first-edition Orchid for like $10?

I got a first edition from Century MEdia for $6 about 2 years ago. *pwn*

I am not sure if there are different versions in the States, but from memory there was the original issue in a jewel case, a limited re-release in jewel case with slipcase over the top and the recent mid-price digipak. Other than that, there is just the promo version.
