James Pond "Special Edition"?

I just saw this auction: http://www.ebay.com/itm/Amiga-Game-J...-/120947625896

It is part of the Chart Attack compilation, but what makes it "special"?

I'd say the sticker is on the sleeve and bares no relation to the disk, which as you say is just a disk from a compilation pack.

Did I say so? Or do you think I might have been referring to the claim of 'special edition'?

Perhaps the thread can go back on track, thanks to your 'timely' intervention!

What a shame, penfold is normally a decent seller. But that auction is just a complete lie.

moijk meant to say "nothing about James Pond is crap" becuase he thought Galahad said James Pond is crap where actually he means the sticker saying its a special editiion is a load of crap. Sorry to interfer I just dont like bad atmospheres.
