Just picked up The Horror Legacy Series' release of "Near Dark". There are two different UPCs on this baby, one on the keep case and an entirely different UPC on the slip cover. In keeping with the contribution rules, which UPC should I be using? Also, which cover image? The images on the slip cover are different from the keep case as well.

Thanks for your help!

How about contributing both. Easy enough, one profile only needs one additional box ticked (and different scans).
This would help other buyers of whatever version they found on the market.

Seems reasonable to me.
Just to clarify I would use the slip cover scans for the slip cover UPC profile and the keep case scans for the keep case UPC profile.

He can't contribute both. He can't provide an SRP for the inner case. This is not at all unusual Drumr. The way it works in these cases is the studio's initial release with the slip case will hve whatever the ORIGINAL SRP will be, tehy have a limited number of slip covers, also called "o" sleeves, once that supply is exhausted the distributor will then announce a re-release of the title with a new "lower" SRP, using simply the sleeveless Keep Case.

I'd say: use the slip cover UPC and scans - because that's the one that matches what you've got.

Yep and once the title is re-released with new SRP sans Slip then we can worry about it. BTW IF you add one with no SRP, you would only invite some user, who is unfamiliar with putting in an errant SRP which we would then have delightful fun trinig to fix.
