I found one on Amazon for $637. Who in their right mind would pay that for any CD?? I'm offended by the very notion, and the seller must be wacko. Eeesh.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 10:18 AM     By:   Jim Phelps   (Member) The seller's insanity will only be surpassed by the poor mark who drops the dough to buy the damned thing. Of course, if you did buy that copy, you do realize there would be a pre-release announcement for a newfangled remastered and expanded edition, right?    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 10:32 AM     By:   Accidental Genius   (Member) Insanity. My favourite is when I see CDs through Amazon Resellers that are upwards of $200 or more, with a note saying "does not ship in jewel case" or some nonsense like that. Thuh fuh?    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 10:42 AM     By:   Leo Nicols   (Member) The seller's insanity will only be surpassed by the poor mark who drops the dough to buy the damned thing.

Jim, that's usually what happens....    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 10:44 AM     By:   Last Child   (Member) Must have been a platinum release...literally.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 11:10 AM     By:   Solium   (Member) I could buy 25 other specialty label scores for that price!    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 11:19 AM     By:   MRAUDIO   (Member) I'm glad I purchased this CD when it first came out - always got a kick out of it as well as the film. I also picked up the Blu Ray as the old DVD was just terrible...    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 11:43 AM     By:   Lokutus   (Member) That's just insane... although it doesn't mean it will ever sell for that price... Either way... about time for a few Jarre reissues... it's been far too long... unfortunately he seems to be generally overlooked (just like Bernstein) recently. At least we have IS PARIS BURNING to look forward to later this summer... pre-order button can't come soon enough!    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 12:27 PM     By:   Morricone   (Member) I am amazed people still get worked up by stuff like this. I find, particularly when the price is some weird number, that it simply is some typo. The seller doesn't know it until someone brings it up to him.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 12:35 PM     By:   Zooba   (Member) Bottom line is that something is worth what ever someone is willing to pay for it and sometimes that is an astronomical figure. You put a price out there and if you're not holding a gun to someone's head, I say get all that you can. People can research for a cheaper price and if they don't and buy for the big price, that is there pleasure and choice.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 12:46 PM     By:   Justin Boggan   (Member) Not quite, zooba. Something is worth what you (any person, not litterally you) want to pay, but if you're dealing with somebody who sets the price, that's what they want you to pay. I can't think of a reason why it's so pricey; it's not some limited edition, it's just hard to find, and it's not -- that I've ever seen -- particularly clammored after. I'd like to see some label come in and let us know they are working on it, or know that somebody else is working on it, and that $637 dollar gouger can suck on some sour grapes.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 12:50 PM     By:   Solium   (Member) Bottom line is that something is worth what ever someone is willing to pay for it and sometimes that is an astronomical figure.

Yeah, but nowadays (since the 90's really) sellers artificiality inflate the prices too. What demand told the seller the CD was worth $600 dollars? One person may buy a CD for $600 dollars than all of a sudden everyone else selling the CD lists it for an astronomical price. I know your going to say supply and demand, but I think you end up with a lot of unsold product because the pricing really doesn't match public demand.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 1:13 PM     By:   Sean Nethery   (Member) I just found a couple on Amazon for $80, a few for $200-$300 hundred, one for $400 plus from Japan. But nothing for $637 - my gosh, they must have sold it! () Cassettes are running as cheap as $29 on Amazon and $20 on ebay.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 1:58 PM     By:   Bill Carson, Earl of Poncey   (Member) No way! Ouch!    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 2:10 PM     By:   Deadwalker   (Member) Having recently revisited the movie on Blu-ray, I was reminded how much I enjoyed the score (rare because I'm not generally a Jarre fan), so I decided to sniff around and see if a CD has surfaced.

There is no album listed for 637.00 35.00 on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/NO-WAY-OUT-ORIGINAL-SOUND-TRACK-VARESE-STV-81334-SEALED-/131843749007?hash=item1eb27ff48f:g:FW8AAOSwKrxUapab    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 2:23 PM     By:   Last Child   (Member) There is no album listed for 637.00 Deadwalker's right, it's not there. There's a cheaper Amazon copy for $458.98 which is a real steal, so get it while you can from the aptly named seller "Samaritan's Gift Store": https://www.amazon.com/Way-Out-Original-Soundtrack-1990-10-25/dp/B01G4D2Z3Q/ref=sr_1_4?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1466713280&sr=1-4&keywords=no+way+out    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 2:31 PM     By:   Solium   (Member) Having recently revisited the movie on Blu-ray, I was reminded how much I enjoyed the score (rare because I'm not generally a Jarre fan), so I decided to sniff around and see if a CD has surfaced.

The seller doesn't know it until someone brings it up to him. Not necessarily. If you ask them, some sellers will say they're leaving the price high for the day when the item is very rare. Privately I think it's money laundering. Hey, there are people on Ebay who sell fake products for a penny, just so other sellers can establish alot of good feedback in a hurry.    Posted:   Jun 23, 2016 - 3:26 PM     By:   Morricone   (Member) Having recently revisited the movie on Blu-ray, I was reminded how much I enjoyed the score (rare because I'm not generally a Jarre fan), so I decided to sniff around and see if a CD has surfaced.
