I was looking on Ebay and Gold Nigga is up to £51 with 5 days to go!

Whats the most you have ever paid for a Prince related album or item?

I paid 350 kr (ca. 45 dollars) for Crystal Ball...

$150 or something like that for City Lights.

probably somewhere around a hundred bucks for a five-album vinyl set of studio bootleggage. ahhh, god bless the days of student loan check shopping sprees...

I just paid $60 for the vanity 6 cd..

200 for the family cd way way back

i was young and it was in the era before i knew what p2p was.

i burned a copy and then sold it for almost the same amount, so it was all good

about £15 ($27) for crystal ball, 5 cd at a record fair, many years ago.


I haggled that seller from £30. Ha, i could hold my own when i was younger and cute.

For a bootleg, must be the $80 I spent for Studio Nights.
For an album, probably the $50 I spent for The Gold Experience LP. Oh wait, I think I also spent $150 for 3 copies of Crystal Ball...two of which went to friends.

100 bucks for the Livesexy 2 CD set. That was close to 15 years ago, and it was through a "legit" record store. I remember they had Crucial on CD and had the store packed with people waiting for a copy, at 85 bucks each. Needless to say I bought one of those too.

Regrets? Nope.

$52 for the hits1&2 and the b-sides!!

hello, I paid 750.00 for the Park, Celly 1&2 and about 5 other bootlegs, I am still missing celly 3 maybe one day. well years ago around 94-95 I paid $350.00 for a Gld Metal box of 8 cd bootleg outtakes 81-86 I think. not really sure. I am In Iraq at the momment I did not bring it with me. I love all my boots. I have quite a collections. still growing. Love, Peace, @ Always B Wild.

somebody bought my spare copy of ONA off me on Ebay for £89 (whats that - $150?)

$700 for "my name was prince" cd around '95/'96.

i've only seen one for sale since then and it went for more, so it's still held it's worth (unlike most of my collection)

$350 for "endorphinmachine" japanese promo cd
$400 for japanese gold "purple rain" cd
$300 for appolonia 6.cd
$300 for japanese tmbgitw promo wallet cd
$250 for japanese "rest of my life" promo cd
$300 for japanese "graffiti bridge" promo cd
$150 for german gold "atwiad"

those are just off the top of my head.

i would say you did alright.

Eil.com has/had a copy of My Name Was Prince they were trying to sell for £1500...but eil is overpriced at the best of times.

i bought a copy of madhouse 8 in the cutout bin for 4.99 on cd.

I paid $50 for Crystal Ball. The next most expensive Prince CD was $25 for the Black Album CD on eBay.

Wow..this is a good one.

the most I ever paid at one time was $400.00 for "The Work" all 5 volumes
and it was worth every penny, each volume has 4 CD's and are all the classics and then some. There are songs on these CD's I've never heard him sing before and there are many different versions of ones he has released and several songs he's never released. Greatest purchase I ever made!

Dude...trade for these on cdr with someone....holy Jesus man.

$50 (or whatever he sold it for) for Crystal Ball...

and then $25 for The Family Japanese Import way back in 94...

other then that ive always paid regular price...i've never bought any bootlegs thus allowing me passage into heaven...

I think I paid $35 for The Exodus through 1-800-New-Funk back in the day.

I paid $200 for the 16 track version of Goldnigga and $300 for Volumes I-V of the Work. I know I could find fileshares of everything, but I must have liner notes, etc. It's just how I am...
