Saw Come On single on ebay - look how much its going for!!!

Hey - if youre one of the unlucky bidders..I'll gladly sell my copy to ya for this much

I have been trying to get a hold of this for a while, but this price isn't THAT uncommon. Usually it goes for at least £30.

Crazy!

I could understand the price if it was the 7 track version, which included the remix of "The One," (it often reaches very high prices) but to pay $80+ for this version would be silly.

People are nuts, they do no research on things. Not long ago there was someone selling a used copy of the ONA 3cd live box, starting bids £50 (too expensive), and the buy it now was £150!!! It was the 3 disc version, did NOT include the ONA piano cd, and was used. Needless to say, it never sold.

You should pay £50 max for a new copy of that set.

There are often sellers listing copies of the ONA Piano album for £200, and £300, they don't sell either.......I wonder why?

These are just two instances of crazy pricing, I see it all the time, Amazon is the same.

It can't just be Prince items either, over the top optimistic pricing must go on right over the board.

it is mental when people are spending £50 on a cd single. if i could get that kinda money for some of my rare discs i'd be rich. i got piles of the rare shit, some are still sealed copies

it's one of my fave prince videos cuz i'm in it

Cool - I'll whack mine on eBay then

2 bids so far........crazy.

Good luck in selling your copy.

I'm not selling mine, it would dent the collection.

If this was a 7 track version, i'd be making a bid though.

I would have felt that way a few years ago but my interest has decreased as Princes effort in his recordings have....we now both have something in common - more money at all costs

The seller is trying to mug off fans. Theres plenty of good second hand record shops to search through that would sell that kind of stuff for the 5th of the price.

I got the Aussie 6 trk version on eBay a couple of months ago for $12. Looks like I got a bargain.

Thank you.

If anyone wants to sell me the 6-track version at a decent price, orgnote me. After I get that one, I'll look into tracking down the 7-track

I bought my six track version for $1.50 about ten years ago. What a waste of $1.50! Maybe I'll find a new Maxi case to stick it into and sell it for $20.
