more than about US$20-35 and you will be getting ripped off.

Unless it is the 5 disc version and then you could pay another US$10-20 if it includes the 5th disc.

I got mine for about $9.00 last week, used - Look around, and I'm sure you'll find a reasonable price. $100 is way, way, way too much for that album..

No, the five disc version has been selling for around $100 on ebay lately. Those who say diffently aren't following the market. A lot of the out-of-print shit is really going up in value probably due to the interest in Prince lately.

I looked at the completed auctions on ebay and the last two to sell went for $112 and $101.

If I were you I would buy the 4 disc versions for between $10 and $40 because Kamasutra isn't worth $60 to $90.

Kamasutra's the one thing in Prince's catalog that I will never ever ever ever ever ever listen to again, and I can say that with complete confidence.

As others have said, you can get Crystal Ball used online and at various wrecka stores across the nation for less than $20 easy.
No confusion, no tears. No enemies, no fear. No sorrow, no pain. No ball, no chain.

I thought the 5 disc version in the clear case wasn't sold in stores.

lovemachine - My mistake, it was indeed the 4 disc version that I purchased for $9.00.

Damn, that means there's another one out there for me to track down... wink

Made my own copy of decent songs from it:

Cloreen Bacon Skin,
Dream Factory,
Movie Star,
Last Heart,
Sexual Suicide,
Crystal Ball,
Crucial,
Make Your Mamma Happy,
Days Of Wild

So did I, so I was even more willing to buy it, seeing it there. Someone else bought me the 4 disk one in the same store for the same price.

I'm so glad this topic was posted! I was just about to buy a copy of the 5 CD set with Kamasutra on ebay ( a "buy it now", so I wouldn't have to bid) for $200. I felt like it was a lot of money, but I really want Kamasutra and they're so hard to find... I've been stressing over it for about a week. Finally, my husband was like, "just buy the thing already!!". Now that I've seen these posts, I'm definitly going to look around some more. Thanks!!

About 2 years ago I found the 4 disc version SO CHEAP in a Wherehouse store that was closing, I bought a bunch & sent them out to miscellaneous Orgers that didn't have it already. Ahhh, if only you were around then batting eyes razz

What a rip-off!!! The 5th disc is just junk... Don't bother this version, just buy the 4-disc which is $5 or even 10 dollars.
