OK, have I mentioned that I love the used CD sections of record stores? I realize this is nothing new to most of you, but over the last five or six months, or so, I've expanded my CD collection so much with used CD's. And, of course, at a substantial cost savings over new.
Just today I stumbled into a Coconuts, just to get out of the nasty heat. not really planning to spend any money, in less than thrity minutes I managed to spend ~$60. Here's what I got:
Joni Mitchell - Travelogue
Joni Mitchell - Taming the Tiger
Joni Mitchell - Blue
Julia Fordham - Porcelain
Everything But the Girl - Walking Wounded
Cranberries - Bury the Hatchet
Nelly Furtado - Whoa Nelly
(Can you tell I like female vocals?)
Not the cheapest prices - typically one-third to half of new - but still decent. I've never been burned by anything I've purchased used at a Coconuts (although their prices for new stuff should be considered highway robbery), and they have a great return policy.
What have you all picked up used lately? Feel free to gloat over extreme bargains (you don't have to divulge your sources
). Actual LP's count too, for all you vinyl junkies.
