Why is it so hard to find a Vanity6/App.6 album??

I don't understand: Why isnt it at least on Amazon.com or E.Bay @ a reasonable price??
I'm in the mood for love...simply because your near me.

Well because the Vanity 6 album has been out of print for a long time, and the Apollonia 6 album was only released on CD as an import to the US.

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

But what did you pay for it?

I found a Vanity 6 CD in a used store about 10 years ago for $5. Apparently the store didnt know what its street value was.

I think it cost me $20-25. Frankly, I didn't think about the cost because it was something I didn't own...and I like to support indie wrecka stows. cool

There are still sealed NOS copies of Vanity 6 floating around record stores. The Apollonia 6 was a very limted release CD, so it's much harder to find a legit copy. Of course, there are the Canadian counterfeits of both "6" albums easily obtainable on eBay.

I guess I didn't know that the prices were up at $100-$150 for an original. I have an extra copy that I should think about selling.
If prince.org were to be made idiot proof, someone would just invent a better idiot.
