I would pay good money for one of those Purple Rain umbrellas that the Minnesota Twins were giving away on Prince night.

You and me both.

There is a link on the original thread about it. $25.00 I think.

Sorry it took so long to see your latest comment, I had actually moved on...

it is not a big deal i was not going to reply but i am board~

So in your mind, a counterfeit product will never be of superior quality...

NO! On the contrary they can be of very high quality. but it IS one thing to look for. Such as can you see the shape of the decal. Like a rectangle with sharp or even irregular edges. But sometimes they can be very well made.


and a "major retailer" can always be trusted to never sell counterfeit products.

I did not say that either but it makes it less likely that it would be a fake if it is...

Got it.

I am not sure you do

I can't stress how much evidence there is to dispute this, but...Ok...


As I said they are all things to look for and consider.

Again, not judging anyone's right to purchase as they wish.


Ok I was not going to buy one anyway...

*Poof*

Poof! but I am correct these items are legit so i can leave it there.

I thought you guys were talking about the "Purple Wear" sold at Spencer Gifts back in 1984-85.

The Hot Topic Purple Rain shirt is dope. I would have bought it right now but it's out of stock in almost all sizes. It's about time they license out some good Prince shirts. I'm not a fan of the ones they have for sale from Paisley Park. Would love to get a legit shirt of Prince wailing on guitar... Or Sign Of The Times album cover... Purple Rain album cover... 1999 album cover... etc.

You know what would make a great Prince T-shirt is the If I Was Your Girfriend 12 -inch cover.

All of this shit out there is not officially sanctioned Prince stuff. The ONLY place to buy genuine sanctioned Prince clothing/memorabilia, etc....is officialpaisleypark.com. That's it, there is NO OTHER PLACE. No matter what it is that you are buying, if it didn't come from officialpaisleypark.com, it's not genuine. And you are not helping the estate to keep itself afloat buying whatever from non-official sources.

No the stuff at Hot Topic is being put out by Bravod which has the license front the estate. The other stuff other than Paisley Park is crap. Brando needs to crack down as I believe his likeness has been copyright.

Thanks Laura, I wasn't aware that had happened. I messaged PRNFamily to get an answer but apparently he didn't feel like answering

Uh huh. Ok.

I'm not judging...just pointing out the obvious, but...

Carry on.

I hope that Paisley Park does get to sell more shirts. I know Prince had the rights to the watercolor shirt of his face and I think that is a great shirt. I hope the PP has those on sale and leaves the PR shirts to Bravdo.

I also hope that Bravdo can put a stop to some of the crap that other people are selling.

I want some pants with buttons going down the side and rueshing . I don't know how to spell rueshing. A few years ago, some little clothing store had pants like that. I really wished I would have bought them.

It's ruching They were a bit stylish a number of years ago - but not the most flattering on most. I had a pair with ruching on the side. Maybe vintage/second hand stores would be a good bet.

I just purchased the Kohls 1 a week or 2 ago. I like it n the collar says it's official, that's enough 4 me . Gonna have 2 check Hot Topic in near future for the symbol shirt

Update: Went to 2 Hot Topics 4 his symbol shirt. Both had the P.R. 1 n not that 1 . Am debating whether or not 2 try their website. Their stuff is kinda pricey. BTW, did pick up a shirt w/ MJ n 1 w/ Jesus up there just cuz . They fit nicely (especially the Jesus 1 ), sum o their shirts run small .

Cool. I haven't seen any Prince apparel yet in my area.
