Ridiculous Prince ripoffs on eBay.

Who in their right mind would spend £2,500 on a CD of an already released song?

It's hilarious that they even offer a payment plan (£117 a month for 24 months). How generous of them.

From the ebay description


"This unreleased version is very similar to the album version however it is a live variation, the start is completely different to the album version. This version begins with the crowd cheering, 3/4 the way through Prince sings “Bring him Down” clearly referring to god which I cannot hear in the album version. No doubt audiophiles will identify other differences I have not. So to be clear this is a live version, different to the album version."

An utterly ridiculous price though. Take a couple of zero's off and it would still be too high.

RIP sad

Ah thanks! I guess it's just the Emancipation TV Concert Special version pressed on CD.
