Title: Recommendations to buy Melvins records at cheap price?
Post by: tmangia on August 05, 2010, 06:41:21 PM
Hello!

Melvins records are really rare in my country, but when I find it, it's an imported disc at a high price, which doesn't make me interested on buying it. I saw on this board that there are a massive amount of Melvins collectors and collections, which I'd like to have a regular collection from them, starting from their albums/singles/eps in cd format.
So, any places you guys can recommend for buying their records in a cheaper price? Any sellers here? I'm not into buying it right now, but I'm thinking doing it on the next few weeks.

Thanks!

thanks!

I'm not into amazon since I bought a Lydia Lunch DVD for less than $20,00 and the taxes coasted more than the dvd! I prefered ebay, but I wanted to know if there are other places to be looking at.

if there are more places that aren't cited here, please let me know!

thanks again :)

Why not ask Ratos de Porao (via myspace) where to get inexpensive imported rock in Brasil? They seem friendly enough and they're bound to know.

I spoke to Gordo when they were in the UK, really friendly and, apart from weighing 7 tons, a regular guy! I'm sure they'll help.
