old and used cd's I buy from half.com, that website is great. You can find so many cd's for dirt cheap there. Everyonce in awhile I see an old cd or a used one at a store and I will pick it up if it is a good deal.

New cd's I try to get wherever I can find the cheapest deal. Sometimes Best buy is pretty good, getting new cd's for under $12. But they never have any underground releases. Local mom and pop shops around here rarely get the shit I am looking for until way later. I hate going to the wharehouse but sometimes I do, and hand them over my left arm for a cd. But this is only when I can't find it at any other stores. I usually don't order brand new cd's off websites, but what are the best ones out there?

I usually buy the new albums I want on the tuesday they come out. For the last few years though I have bought way more older albums than new ones, but when I do buy new ones I prettymuch have to pay way too much, and most of the time the album is not that great, gets a week or two of play, and then not a whole lot more from then on. Now I am thinking, fuck it, I am tired of all this mediocre bullshit that gets put out, so I think I am gonna wait on new releases until I can find them cheaper on half.com. Believe me I wanna support the artists, but when I have to pay more than $15 for a cd of fuckin crap that entertains me for a week max, that is just bullshit.

I'm with you homie, I get 90% of my shit from half.com. The other 10% I get at Best Buy and the Mom & Pop Record store down the street.

I buy most of my shit from www.cheap-cds.com which Nima hooked me up with. They good for me cause they actually ship to the UK as well, without adding like $7 onto the price like most of the other American sites do. BTW, does half.com actually ship to the UK, cause everyone on here always talks about getting shit off there but I've never actually checked it out.

Same here. Since hip hop sucks so bad now I don't waste my time on new cd's. I just buy old albums that I missed the first time around. Like I just bought Cypress Hill's first album and that is better than anything that has come out in a long time.
