Please don't move this thread, I am not the seller, I'm just making an observation and just wanted to hear what other collectors think.

Is it just me, or is this a really lame promo:

The Smiths Please Please Please Let Me Get What I Want 1 Trk Promo CD Morrissey - eBay UK

"Hummmm, we need to find a clever cover for this single, one which will stand out and catch peoples eyes or we could simply use the William sleeve". Jeez that must have taken them all of 10 seconds to come up with that one. Where is the imagination? Perhaps I'm just getting old and bad tempered :straightface:

Is this item real? The sticker states the 'impact date' is Dec. 26.

Update Dec. 3, 7:50AM PT:

Item looks legitimate...

Item is on true-to-you.net with a quote from Morrissey:

Morrissey says: "I am delighted beyond words to be a PETA postage stamp. The rise and rise of PETA is the rise of common sense in modern society. Join the aims of PETA and join a better world."
