Hello! This time I'd like you to explain me the possible difference between those two covers of the Fallout Jewel Case: here the first http://img211.imageshack.us/img211/1772/51g0fq9m1vl.jpg and the second http://img854.imageshack.us/img854/9428/cattura2n.jpg

Thank you so much!

The second is a US release that we have on file. http://www.mobygames.com/game/windows/fallout-fallout-2-dual-jewel

The first one, I don't think it's a real product. Looks like someone photoshopped a Fallout cover (which we have on file) to make it look like the dual release.

The first one is sold on Amazon.com, I should trust the seller?

Amazon lists a lot of resellers, while you'd likely get a similar product they advertise if you buy from them; most just pick the first google image search result as an image to accompany their products. You shouldn't count on getting something that looks exactly like in the picture.

Same for stuff sold through Amazon directly. If you buy a game older than 6 months, even if it shows an original box, you're likely to get a budget re-release edition without manual.

Ah, I didn't know it. So, how can you buy exactly the edition that you want? Do you know any websites focused on that? Thanks for the answers, anyway!

Ebay auctions with photographs of the actual product they sell.

There are also some game trading sites, but frankly I've never been there so I have no idea if they have that.
