Purchase American CDs

[Matheous]

Can anyone suggest an American site who ship CDs to the UK. I am looking for some quite obscure guitar CDs....

I regret I can't tell you of any sites for rare CD's.
However,IF you buy CD's online (from a country outside the EU) you will be liable for Customs Import Duty if the goods are above �18.00 in value,on top of this there is VAT+ The Post Office handling fee!
So as you can see,if you are ordering just a single/couple of CDs this could considerably bump up the cost.
I point this out so you won't have a shock when receiving your order.
Some suppliers may say that they will "underprice" or
"misdescribe" items so you can avoid duty,you wont",HMRC is quite used to this ploy,and it doesn't escape their notice.
Have a look here for more information:~

Hi There,
Try the global electronic music market www.gemm.com - I have used the site several times to source rare CD's and vinyl, & never had a problem.
