I have good friends who live in LA and they did indeed get me a copy of Ultimate Prince today! I'm excited and glad I didn't pay mega bucks on ebay for one. I think they got it at the Virgin Megastore... excited

Got mine about an hour ago in Virgin Mega at the Block in So Cal. I went straight for the Prince section but didnt see it. A worker there saw me looking at said "Let me guess, your looking for Ultimate Prince? I said yes and he told me wait right there. He went to the back of the store and brought out one for me. He told me about it was pulled last minute and that they were still able to sell them as an import. It wasnt shrink wrapped for some reason but he still sold it to me for $30. I'm listening to it right now and it sounds awesome! Go get one if you can.

I can't help but wonder if this is true, I just bought it on amazon.com..there were two of them. We'll see what happens.

I bought 10 from two different Virgin Megastores in NYC about 2 weeks ago and sold them to fellow fans at cost + shipping & a CDr of a live show I don't have...

I just heard on 93.9 FM out of Windsor, I believe, that they have three copies of Ultimate Prince to give away! I was kind of surprised about that, being that the cd set was supposedly canceled and all.

I still don't get why fans were so up in arms to get it. It's such a dull, routine hits package.

Oh yay, there's When Doves Cry and Kiss again. I've been looking all over for a CD with those songs!

I paid stupid-money to an eBay seller in Australia to get it.

It's practically non-existent in Europe. It's becoming clear that it was only pressed in the U.S. and Australia.

Maybe you can go online and try to order it from the Chicago Virgin Megastore?

People don't want it for those songs. People want it for the mixes. At least I do. I don't have them already.

It sure is, ordered one yesterday although I don't hold out any hope of actually getting it smile.

Interstingly they had it listed twice and one was shown as out of print. They both had different release dates too confused.

Just checked order and it says, "Some / all items have been placed on special order with our suppliers", which doesn't sound too promising.
