One question. Is this the same book as the one published in 2018?

YES, but with a new introduction.

Almost inevitably one already on eBay... £99.99 or best offer!

In my case, I won't buy it because I'm the same. I have my purchases piling up and I still have an annual pending this year.

There are inevitably already speculators and resale businesses.

Well, Neils' signature has been N. T. for the past couple of years, so why doesn't he sign 500 or 1,000 books? It would only take an hour. 200 is a slightly disappointing figure. Also, why not announce the start of the sale via email so that true fans can find out about it and have the chance to buy a copy?

I don't think I've ever looked at my copy of the original book. Pop lyrics never seem quite the same when presented as poetry without the music.

Maybe locals can post names of these establishments.

Last week, I bought the paperback and the Kindle edition of the new issue, with the Jon Savage's foreword. Paperback arrived fine on Saturday, but the Kindle version was the original issue (no foreword) so got a refund. Both from Amazon. Not sure how to get a full paperback equivalent on Kindle. Any suggestions?

I’m looking at the listing on Amazon US and it does state that the Kindle version is the 2018 edition. You could try clicking the “Report an Issue with this product or seller” button and use it to nudge them to update to the paperback version, perhaps? They may not be aware of the difference.
