Hi there- just a quick message from London, England...
basically I wanna buy the Wrestlecrap book but there appear to be two versions, one from a British publisher and one from the original publishers with different covers and different prices. I'd happily buy the slightly cheaper one (the British one) expect for the fact it has 17 less pages. Just wondering why the page difference and are there any other differences between the two books?
Thanks!

Since you asked my advice, I say, whatever you do...don't buy the official UK version! Yes, it's cheaper, but they've also taken out ALL the color photos. It's also smaller (physically, it has the same text I think), has a far worse cover, and a dumb title (True Stories of The World's Maddest Wrestlers).
Just my $.02.

Y'know...isn't it a tad redundant to plug Wrestlecrap.com in your sig RD when you're on the Wrestlecrap.com forum?

Thanks for the advice. The difference is less than £3 (which is apparantly $5.37) so i'm fine buying the proper one. You're right about the worse cover (esepecially as the change seems unnecessary). I guess they took the pages out so they could sell it more cheaply, must think us Brits are tight...ok we are but that's not that point...actually it's probably just me...anyway, thanks again  |

RD I saw this and thought it was a whole new book but alas, no. I'm glad I got the US version from Amazon UK. UK version had Max Moon on the cover  . |
