SMALLSTONE--don't waste too much money on the dope guns 7". first of all, there were more than 10 copies made on red vinyl... many more. i see that single up for sale on ebay almost on a weekly basis... every now and then a red copy will pop up. i snatched mine for TEN euros (including shipping!).
by the way, do you use ebay.co.uk or ebay.com? not sure if it does make a difference... maybe it's like ebay.de (the german one) which is totally separated from the american version... anyway, if you're on co.uk, try the .com and see if there's any difference.
and whatever you do--DO NOT buy from record stores, especially if they're in the UK! i should know better, i've thrown away lots of cash buying mudhoney rarities when ebay was yet to come... things like 20 quids and more for a EGBDF picture disc, which now goes for less than $10 (and remains unsold). what's really amazing is that people in the uk STILL charge those prices... so there must still be folks PAYING those prices... why!? it's really hilarious when the guys at eil.com (i.e. reckless records if i remember correctly) try to sell black vinyl copies of this gift for like ten pounds on ebay next to some john doe trying to sell his for 99p.
brown vinyl copies of touch me are kinda easy to find but expensive because everybody wants them. same goes for the black version. (200 copies). the REALLY rare edition of that single though are the very few copies made on other colors (red, yellow, orange, clear, purple... the list goes on). less than 10 copies for most of those colors, some may well be unique pieces.
