I've been collecting UKJ stuff over the past few years, but hadn't bought anything new anymore since I though my collection qas quite complete. Also I'm not really interested in all the different pressings from different countries.

Still, this French Tomorrow's World promo cd looks awesome IMO, and there are only 1000 made of.

I already paid the seller (ebay).. looking fwd to having it!!

What's the rarest stuff that all of you guys have?

Rarest UKJ item for me is the CITC CD single w/ paper cover and Panhandlin' Prince on the "B" side. Oh, I also got a paperthingy for America's Least Wanted CD (1 CD in width and about 3 CD's in height), it's used for CD's to be putted in vinyl boxes. Hard to explain when I don't know the name...

^ That's a longbox. Cool item! Although they were originally not rare at all. But I've seen this one only once so far in 3 years.

Thanks. Hehe, longbox... funny name. I've only seen like 10-15 of these and got 3 of 'em (1 UKJ and 2 Gn'R).

my rarest thing is a signed promo photo for Motel California, its also my favorite item since Klaus took the trouble and time to post it to me and Motel is my favorite album.

Also a signed Menace to Sobriety Beer Mat, thats pretty cool.

Some footage I have from Paul (originally from Mayday) not official but still really great to have.

My collections really pale in comparison to a lot of people but recently Ive become less of a collecter of my favorite bands and now I just try to get the items I think are really special or cool.

I would have died for the signed UKJ guitar that went up on ebay, but the auction was withdrawn before it ended and I never got the chance to bid :mellow:

Yeah the guitar was smashed up at some London gig, all the members signed it and left it to the venue... I think it was Klaus' and it was a blue strat

The starting bid was £50, No Desire do you have the pics/info saved?

About the webspace, yeah theres no download limits at all, like with the mp3s, I have it for another year so use it for what you want, about 900mbs or something like that...

I could make some mpgs, I have all your footage on dvd, i prolly just need the right software.

I dunno how rare it is, but i bought an embroidered UKJ leather jacket from Ebay back in early 2001. It was the most expensive UKJ thing i bought!

I also have America's Least Wanted 'Pop-up' edition CD. But bizarrely enough it is not the Australian version that you usually see. The flag in the background is the American one. How rare is this and is it unusual? i dunno?
Erik do you have any ideas?

^ That's the so-called collector's edition, which was sold alternately to the Australian album in a jewelcase. It's not THAT rare, but for any reason the sellers often don't want to sell abroad.

Only the pics, not the info.

BTW, this guitar was on eBay before, because I found 3 more pics of it on my PC that I had saved in November '03. I named them Tanglewood TSE then.

Well, I'm not fully back... Best you regard me as a guest. :)
But hey, could you help me one more time? You told me your Motel CD was from the US. - Did you have a computer at the time you bought it? Or did you buy it in Canada? I just got reply from another Canadian guy, and he said he wasn't 100% sure, but he thought he bought his Motel in Canada, and it's the US version as well. I'm nearly sure now that there was no Motel CD made in Canada.

I had ordered it through Columbia House. It's a magazine where you can order CDs, tapes, and movies. This was a while ago when I ordered it.. it had to be around 1996-97. I had a computer back then, but no Internet. I think Columbia House may be Canadian...I think it is shared with stuff in the U.S. though.

We didn't get the Internet until about October in 1999. I was heartbroken when I found out UKJ was no more.

Hope that helps. ^_^

Hm. I just checked: Columbia House has its headquarters in NYC. So this isn't a proof that there are no Canadian Motel pressings. I think so though. The only Motels I've seen so far were from the US, the UK (1996 + 2001), Germany, Japan and Australia.

Thank you for your reply! :)

At that time I had watched Whit in LOA for a year... and was hoping for a release of Medication. And I shouldn't get internet access for another year.
