They are individually numbered, and I have looked at two over the last year that had numbers over 1000 but under 2000, so I'm thinking maybe 2000, but I would liked to know for sure.

I seem to recall it was ten thousand copies can't be sure though. I bought this back when it came out £25 if I remember correctly. Cool thing to have I'm still looking for a standard copy on black vinyl though. smile

i really doubt a promo would have had 10,000 copies. a promo is free. 10000 free copies of a whole album would really cut into a few sales numbers. a sampler with just a song or 2 i could see having that many copies

That is what i was thinking. 10,000 seems an awful lot for a promo. But.......i could be wrong, i often am lol .
