I have just filed separate reports at Ebay on each of this seller's items. I don't know how to reach WB. Perhaps someone else can pick up the action from here.

^^ Sadly, ebay doesn't give a shit, and while I agree that people like this should be stopped, this thread will probably act as an ad for this seller, as I'm sure there are plenty of people on this site who will happily pay for this stuff.

Plus, alomost all "legit" Prince WB and NPG cds coming in from China on ebay at 5 dollars for phase 1 or 2 can't be legit.

lol Their copy of Purple Rain Remastered has "Darling Nikki (With Corrected Forward Ending)"!!!


Corrected?!? Yeah, right. Prince and/or WB made a mistake all those years ago and it was never corrected till now. What a piece of shit! The seller and the product...

If it's from Japan with Japanese writing all over the bottom or back of it, is that a bootleg or some other kind of phony?

As I look for DVDs please educate me on this stuff folks.
Thanks!!
