    Disc 3 side 2 is very off center. So much so that it is hard to listen to the song due to the constant "thump thump" of the stylus bouncing back and forth. Anybody else with this issue?

      Anyone else who experienced this as pretty warped? Nonetheless it's a great sounding record!

        Would anyone know if there are color variants, or did everyone get orange?

              I believe they are labeled so because the album is Dear 23 so a 2 disc and a 3 disc.

                I don't think the jacket listing is incorrect. In my copy, the discs are also labeled 2 and 3 (like Dear "23").
