Is this Aphex Twin "On (remixes)" that I own a rare one?

I got this Aphex Twin "On (remixes)" (WAP39CDR) cd, but the
pressing on the cd itself is the pressing from the original
"On" cd (WAP39CD).
So the written tracklist on the cd itself is "1. on 2.
73-yips 3. d-scape 4. xepha", while the actual tracklist is
the remix tracklist....

Is this a known misprint?

the "ring" in the middle of the disc says WAP39CDR, but the
text on the disc says that it's WAP39CDR....

should I maybe put this up for grabs on eBay??

so the cover is the remixes cover, and it plays the remixes
but the cd itself says its the original ep?

mike's remix is ace! and d-scape mix is one of my favourite
aphex tracks.

I guess it's one of those things that can get pricey in 20+
years time, when we are in our midlifecrisis and want to
relive those golden years through collecting all that is
Aphex.

I would do a bit of research, find out how many of these
mispresses there are. I don't think it's many, cause it's
the kind of thing labels generally try to avoid. If you want
the big bucks, save it for 10+ years.

it's more of a mis-label than a mispress. due to the error,
i should think it's worth less than a normal copy, not more.
it's more annoying than collectable.

If you're going to get technical, I guess it is :)

The price is often dictated by the level of
collectors/completists an artist/band has. I don't have any
examples but I'm shure a mislabeled Beatles-single fetch
quite some money. Offcourse the Aphex-market is not as
thriving as The Beatles market, but given enough time the
completists will start to search for obscure editions like
these.

well...Powerpill Pacman did get sold sold for $180
last year on eBay if I recall correctly...this one should
have a good chance in the future ;)

1. because i know the µ-ziq remix and 2. because
cddb-players (like winamp) recalls it as the remix-ep
