It's a big seller on ebay, so I assume the higher then avrage price for a "prince cd" on ebay means that Crystal Ball isn't in print. I've seen a couple of copies in the dirt cheep bins of some very old record stores and used cd places.

I bought my copy off ebay and I'll be selling it back soon as I get time in order to list several items I want to get rid of.

Bad News: Prince wasted too much quality time doing so.

Not really sure what you are asking or if I fall under the term "music savie", I bought my crystal ball off ebay, and I will be selling it back. I had heard it was, and thought it would be, crap but I wanted to check out "The Truth" that was okay but still lame according to what I was hoping for.

No, although you could do that. I however collect a few choice cds, and I keep my collection. Several Prince albums are not in my collection and that one isn't welcome. I'm not a Prince fan after all. I just like to retake the money I've lost on some things. I'd like more for wasting my time listening to CryStillBalls, but that's a little more then I can expect at this time.

I didn't think it was very good at all. I'm not a fan at all, I just enjoy some of his more querkier spiritual stuff, the type of stuff that hasn't come out of him in X years.

Yeah Crystal Ball was stuff most of us had already heard in some type of capacity and then releasing it in that fashion wasn't all that exciting but I would never sell it cause it still has its moments.
I'm an org elitist... totally unapproachable.
