Just found out about this book and it seems so interesting, was wondering where to get it or if you stil can? how much it was etc. etc.

All the links say Sold out etc.

Thanks

now and then someone is selling their copy on ebay, but it's fairly rare. when the book was in print, people pretty much grabbed them up and whoever has a copy is probably not willing to part with it.

they were talking about releasing an updated version of the vault, but i think that idea fell into the abyss. hopefully now that i mentioned them, someone from uptown will magically pop into this thread and correct me.

Fairly rare is an understatement ... it sells over $100 if found at all

yowsa! i'm putting my copy of the vault in the vault!

Wow, I had no idea. I just checked ebay and the last one sold there was for $249.99.

I've sold most of my Prince collection that isn't music. But The Vault is still sitting pristinely on the shelf. Hmmmmm.

yeah, but if it's $249 now, just imagine how much it'll be worth in five or ten years. i'd sit on it for a while longer.

of course, i'm biased. it gets more play on my reference shelf than strunk, white and roget combined.

My copy is shot to shit lol. I wouldn't part with it for anything though.

I ordered mine a few months ago from the site after e-mailing Per. At that time, he had a few left and I got one of them (including autograph!). If you e-mail quickly, you may be able to catch one of the last copies?

I've only looked at it a few times since I've gotten it but I have a feeling the dividends will pay off in the end. It also gives me a neverending list of things to search for in music, videos and articles...which is great...oh man, I'm crossing into famhood save me

Thats cool and strange all at the same time as I did the same thing and got the same thing only it was 2005 and not the 2004 that I asked for but was happy what the hell (I can't remember what the year was but I know I got the later rather than the earlier copy) but hey thats cool.

Wait, I thought there was just a 2004 edition of The Vault? That's what I have at least...
