Could someone tell me what this number and letters string is CDPCS 7388 (eg. on this CD http://www.45worlds.com/cdalbum/cd/cdpcs7388) and also tell me why it is part of the cat# or why it actually precedes what I would consider to be the cat#. I have searched the net but can't find an answer but I have a suspicion it is a price code and not part of the cat# at all. Does anyone know what the score is with these numbers. My Australian release has these numbers in the spot 8552282 where CDPCS 7388 is written on this copy but the label, cat# and barcode are the same. Should I enter my Australian copy with these 8552282 mystery numbers in front of the cat# or are the two CDs one and the same by the crirteria of the site and this constitutes an International release. Furthermore, if using these numbers is allowable and within the site guidelines we may as well go to the individual country method as everything will be different in regard to this particular set of numbers. Any thoughts?

PCS was the standard prefix for stereo vinyl albums issued on Parlophone in the UK. There isn't a vinyl version of the Supergrass album you linked listed here yet but their first album is:
