| There are ads in the back of Digital Audio issues that claim to
offer imported CDs not generally available.

On saturday I was at Harold Moore's ... Quaint little shop, but what a mess ...
I'm not exactly surprised about .0. There shop prices are however quite good.
BPD. 9.90 compared to 11.50 for the same record at VIRGIN.
GRAMMOPHONE has a whole list of UK mail order places. I'll try to dig one up
this week.
With all the DECies flying back and forth over the pond, wouldn't it be
possible to post "wanted's" in this notes file ? US residents would however
have to accept slighly higher prices (When will the US$ bottom out ????).
At the current $ exchange rate typical European price would be bewteen 18-20
US dollars. It all depend on how badly you want the record ...

| Thanks very much for compiling that list. Does anyone have any
experience in dealing with any of these places? I chose Harold
Moore's originally because it was recommended in an earlier note.
I keep meaning to call them to find out what gives, but I haven't
had a chance yet. I'll post the results here when I do.
Thanks.

| I've used MDC (also from the previous recomendation) and they have
been very good. Harold Moore's may be just as good but they don't
seem to have their act together - I can very well believe that the
place was chaotic - that's the impression I got on the phone. One
word of advice - please check whether the CD you want is actually
in stock - they don't tell you unless you ask.
