    Thought I bought an original 1991 soundgarden "badmotorfinger" lp... But the label says "Made in West Germany" and "Made in Holland". This one is not listed in the database. Is it common that this happens? Havn't contact the seller yet. Gave him a good rating before a realized it was a fake. Damn

    Not everything is in the Discogs database...I'd do a bit more research before accusing a seller of selling a fake.

    Not only is everything not in but also everything may not be accurate. Individual members enter the data. Human error is afoot.

    Exactly, and constantly I might add. With a collection upwards of 2100 titles, myself, I receive at least 15-20 e mails a day of changes affecting my stuff ! Multiplied by God knows how many other members...:help:

    Your big giveaway is actually going to be fresh plain white inner sleeves - 99% positive they won't be poly lined.

    Does your cover kinda look fresh and faded at the same time, as if it's a new photocopy? That's also a big clue.

    It has white quite fresh polylined inner. Cover looks ok actually, color, photo and so on. And it looks the same as the original.
