I actually got PAID to take a Prince record once! My high school sweetheart's mom did not like the fact her daughter had the vynil 12" of "Let's Pretend We're Married" (man has it been that long, I can't even recall what was on the other side, I want to say it was "Irresistable Bitch" but don't quote me on that) - Anyway she did not like the idea of her little daughter pretending she was married, and she really did not like the picture of Prince on the cover! I will never understand the logic of why she wanted to just give it to me, her daughter's boyfriend, like that is going to help matters (!) but in any case she tried to get me to take it one day because she knew I liked Prince and figured at least she could get rid of it this way. I told her I didn't want to just take this thing from her daughter, it was not mine to take, so she gave me $5 to take it away. So I did, made mom happy, and from then on, my girlfriend and I just listened to it at MY house wink which worked out better anyway, since my bedroom had a lock on the door!

I bought the Graffiti Bridge CD (I had originally bought it on vinyl only) from a clearance rack at TOWER Records for about $6.00.

I also once bought Batman on cassette for about $3.00 at Woolworth's.

I got a vinyl copy of "cotroversy", poster included, for about 4 bucks.
But the cheapest I've ever gotten in prince realation was Vanity's "wild animal" album (on vinyl) for 1.50 (that's the exact Price, cause I still have the price tag on it).

I almost bought "New Power Soul" for $2.99 at Wherehouse Records, but didn't. My sister later gave it to me at no cost.

I got Crystal Ball/The Truth for $12.00 and Emancipation for $9.99.
