CRYSTAL BALL

How much do npgmc charge for the Crystal Ball set?
I was going to get it for $20.00 odd dollars from Tower Records, but they now tell me that they no longer have it in stock
I have tried Ebay US, UK and Australia and all of them are asking too much for it
Can anyone here recommend any other places, that sell it new and for a reasonable price too? biggrin

I bought my Set off ebay for about 5 dollars.

Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.
You have those internalized issues because you want to, you like to, stop.

Hey! I had to check eBay to make sure you were not messing up. They only have two up there for sale. It looks like it is time to sell my copy. mr.green

They're a store kinda like Best Buy, but without the appliances. The one near me went out of business though. sad

That is a shame
Do either of you two know if the set comes with any pictures, lyrics and liner notes at all? biggrin

The Crystal Ball download is $49.95 for non-members, $38.85 for members. I don't know why you just didn't go look, you don't have to be a member to view the musicology download store.

In this form, it doesn't come with any pictures, lyrics or liner notes. The original set which included the 5th disc Kamasutra sent to those ordered over the net from 1-800 New Funk back in the day came in a transparent can with just the discs. The version sold in stores had just the 4 discs and came in a cd-box with cover and with liner notes (but no pics or lyrics).

There was a great online lyric/photo book for it. Don't remember the address at the moment.
