I would think so as I rarely see one.  I have two, tho.  i picked up the first one as it seemed to me the best way to get a crackle free copy of 1987 to put on CD (and it sounds fab, too).

 

Then a few months ago I came across one dirt cheap (something like $6) and I couldn't believe the price was right.  I took a risk and it was actually a genuine 1987.  And still shrinkwrapped!

 

My intention was to sell it on ebay and make ten times that but I can't find myself wanting to part with it.  And $60 just doesn't sound like that much money to me right now.
