I just saw a copy of the infamous "Black Album" going for $20,000! WOW indeed.
That seller is really using Prince's passing to their advantage. I feel a little weird about that but what can you do. People will always try to exploit situations to their advantage.
In the mid-90's, a real copy of The Black Album was selling for upwards of $10k.
When artist dies ones albums may become very hot. Whitney Houston first album was selling at high dollar for about a month or two than back to buck and a half.
"Very hot" is one thing, $20,000 is another. Even if it was on 200 gram, solid 24K gold, it wouldn't be worth $20,000. Who comes up with this stuff?

I betcha most that post and shop around here.
it sold for $305...where are you getting $20,000 from????

The OP posted the link for the 7" 45RPM, which did sell for $305.  I stated just after that, that I saw a "Black Album" for an asking price of $20K. Sorry for the confusion.
