wait, how to understand if is a fake one?

edit:
because I recently bought WhiteChalk & Stories record. the first one has inner sleeve pictures,
the second only a blank paper and this detail makes me think that could be a fake one
did anybody?
re edit:
ok, just found out it's a fake...

Fake LPs are spreading. I was in a fair recently and they had an orange vinyl of Stories. I mean, what an awkward color choice for a fake!

I purchased a bootleg pressing of Stories a while ago and yes, the audio sucks and the packaging is flimsy. It is definitely not worth having.

You can tell the difference between the bootleg and official pressings by the included inners, a spine mis-print, and the colour of the labels/cover (compare here):

http://www.discogs.com/P-J-Harvey-Stori ... se/3981587 <-- Bootleg

There is also a new bootleg pressing of Dry on red vinyl that has been showing up on eBay.

That's right, fake LPs are spreading. I have purchased a bootleg pressing of Stories a while ago and yes it was fake and I lost my money with this. So please be aware of the fake LPS and try to be away from this.
