I bought a first pressing of PJ Harvey's Dry, with the bonus demos LP, and when I got home found that it held 2 copies of the proper LP but no demos LP.
However, the sleeve had no track listing for the demos LP and although the labels were identical I just assumed that was the way it was. Even when I played both LPs my initial thought was 'waste of money, there isn't any noticeable difference'.
Some months later I was back in the record shop and commented that there wasn't any difference. They did actually have a spare copy in the back so they bust open the seal and to everybody's surprise there was 2 pressings of the demos LP inside. Needless to say I got to do a swap after returning my copy, but it was pretty amazing that the one they pulled out from the storeroom happened to be the one that they needed to see.
Note that vinyl LPs sold in tiny quantities back in those days and I was probably one of the few awkward customers that asked for them.
