Nice catch!
I remember seeing the Blew and Sliver 12”s Tupelo test pressings advertised for sale in a record collector, around 1997. The Sliver was £50!! As now and then, my budget has been always small or insignificant.

Anyway, it is always nice to see a TP missed by panda ?

Yeah would be nice to see scans/pics of that Blew TP to see if it's a "new" copy!

A thought came to my mind… being a completist is a pain!!
I guess that 87% of our members are or aspire to be completists!
It breaks my expectations when I had a quick count on my wanted list and realised that I am still missing 285 items, from which 144 are cassettes!!!!! (bloody tapes, I should focus on TPs, instead), 86 CDs and 47 LPs… no matter how much I look into the horizon, I cannot see the light at the end of tunnel!!

Silly completists!!

I had a conversation along those lines with the owner of a record shop local to me. It occurred to me that if I actually acquire all the cassetts and CDs that are on my want list, I'll have to buy another house to put them all in! 

Latest addition is a Croatian Incesticide cassette - https://www.discogs.com/release/8922350-Nirvana-Incesticide

Yes, I totally agree!
Since we bought our house, my collection is partially in Lisbon and the rest in London. The majority is boxes, which is a pain when you want to listen to something (even if they are organised in alphabetical order). Around 4200 items (CDs, LPs, 7”s etc. from Jazz to Classical or Indie to World plus the infamous Nirvana collection with around 650 official…)! A pleasure and a pain!!

Love that Croatian edition, I was not aware of it!

And finally, after a long search, I have found these two items:

https://www.discogs.com/release/6785415-Nirvana-MTV-Unplugged-In-New-York

https://www.discogs.com/release/6785356-Nirvana-Nevermind

Well done!!

There are so many variations that I decided to focus my low budget on other things, so I only have 3 colour variations.

I said in the past and I will repeat myself, you will only have all colours if you get hand on all 1000 copies of HSCN, as they are pretty much all different, due to the marbling and its pressing fast pace (they never cleaned the matrix between colours)

Yeah I was wondering that when I compared the ones I have to the discogs listings. Wonder why some are so much rarer than others.

Anyway, received this one today - Sliver promo 7" - https://www.discogs.com/release/4461742-Nirvana-Sliver
