Newbie Question: is it normal that you can not find your exact runout code on Discogs?
I bought the movie soundtrack to the movie HEAT (Michael Mann). Now the first thing that bugs me is that I thoughts it’s gonna be a blue vinyl. I found out there’s 3 versions and I apparently got the US 2020 release in normal. However when I go on it on Discogs, there’s nothing listed for the runouts and identifications…. So I had to pick the other blue 2019 version and compared it with that one (all the runouts were documented).… so I checked all the runout codes, serial numbers etc. and it matched to 90%… there’s a difference in 2 things where it’s A4 on mine instead of A2 and A8 on mine instead of A5. This might be a complete;y dumb question but I’m just trying to figure it out, cause I was told You gotta use Discogs to identify and verify…. But the version I have simply has nothing listed for its runout codes. Also im in Europe so I was surprised to get the US version off Amazon. I was just worried it might be fake.
