Hello! I actually have two different questions on this one, so I'll split them into two posts or topics.
The first question is: how can I know if the old Grey Daze CD is legit? It will mostly be about '...No Sun Today' album because there isn't much info about their first album. I know there's been a discussion about that in 2010 and also LPCatalog and Discogs have the data which could help identify it. But the the problem is I recently started to dive into that topic and some of the data I found is kind of controversial. Firstly, there was this Sean Dowdell's post on Facebook where he stated in comments that there was no Re-issued version of '...No Sun Today' in 2001. But he also didn't seem to disagree on this interview when the Re-issued versions were mentioned:
Okay, I know there are reasons not to trust his every single word and maybe this is not as important. But there's the second point: on Discogs there are four listed versions of '...No Sun Today' and the unofficial ones look (in the photos) exactly like the original re-issued one. Even their IDs are the same.

AND the final point is that the versions of the 1997 album look different on Discogs and LPCatalog. Okay, I can assume that Discogs doesn't provide the right information. But still, how do I tell a copy of the CD from a legit one? I'm pretty confused about all this because even reliable sources of information seem to be lying and yeah. Thanks for any help.
