My new Prince signed "Purple Rain" 12" Maxi Single from 1984

I had never seen these before. It's a 12-inch (album size) "Purple Rain" single on side 1 with "God" on side 2. The album is purple! These were released in 1984, I believe.

The cover is titled "Prince and the Revolution" and below that "Purple Rain". Prince signed it in purple, "Love Prince". I think both the "Love" and "Prince" look pretty good.

I have pics below.

I'm pretty excited. It's got the full Prince autograph, plus it's signed in purple on a "Purple Rain" 12-inch titled "Prince and the Revolution" from 1984.

Yes, I noticed the thickness of the R as well. That was one thing that I kept looking at over and over. Plus, inside the loops, I was trying to see where or how the first downstroke started. It looked to me like there might have been a smudge in there.

Oh ya, I noticed that, and she raised the price $200, obviously would still be a great deal if real. I appreciate you guys helping me come to my senses and not buy it. You know...sometimes you find something and initially you think...hey I think this might be authentic...and the price is really good...I need to jump on it. But sometimes when you jump, you fall hard into the fire and get burned, until someone splashes water in your face and you realize those flames really really hurt...especially your wallet. But then with some help, you jump back away from the flames before any permanent damage is done. Thanks.
