I second the Amazon Suggestions, I've got a few great Amazon Imports for super cheap.
Do you know specifically what you are after? If not, the library is a great resource, especially if your county has a larger system where you can browse the entire library system's collection and borrow from any library in that system.
Another great resource which can help is a music on demand subscription such as Rhapsody or Spotify. Both have decent classical collections. If you have a smart phone, an ipod touch, or an android based music player, you can use the Rhapsody or Spotify app to download the music to your device and listen off line.
Used record shops are great too.
I don't own this but It's definitely a good deal when you compare price per album:

I may pick this one up eventually.
That Royal Philharmonic box doesn't look good at all. No conductor's credit. Conductors are everything in classical music. This is probably just a repackaging of radio broadcasts with third tier conductors.
