Laibach / Live cd
JB's City (Melb)

This thread's a bit different, I would've 'DASFFS'ed but I think this thread is a bit different.
For example, if you hate a band but you know a CD is a bargain at a store, you can post it here for some other lucky M+N'er to pick up.
How is it different?
This thread is good. The other is for bargains scored, this can be for bargains for others to score.
Barrage
Numerous locations (seen at Nunawading and Pitt St)
$2-3
You can still find something in a bargain bin and not pick it up.
Sorry, no different.
DIFFERENT!
Just to add to Blake's post... he's referring to JB Hi-Fi.
Circus Lupus - 'Solid Brass' and 'Super Genius'
Collector's Corner, Melb. CBD
$5 each
Been sitting there for ages. One of the best Dischord bands for my money. Feat Chris Thomson who later played in The Monorchid, Skull Kontrol etc. Witch Hats fans might appreciate?
indecent obsession - spoken words
$2, just about anywhere stupid enough to buy it off someone
various cd's - various artists.
cars along smith st.
cost of a housebrick
haw-haw
housebricks are worth more than CD's these days, keep the brick
what jbs, djbollocks? elizabeth or bourke?
If it's not part of a house, is it a housebrick?
it is if it used to be.
hmm, lets call it a cd acquistion device.
Reminds me of the old joke.
Bloke walking down the street with his girlfriend.
"Oooh. I like that" she says to him, pointing at a dress in a shop window.
He picks up a brick and smashes the window, and give her the dress. They walk on.
"Oooh, I like that!" she says, indicating a necklace in a jewellers window. He picks up another brick and breaks the glass, giving her the necklace. They walk on.
"Oooh, I really like that" she says, pointing out a silverware set in another window
"Oi!" he says to her "I ain't made of bricks yer know"

Jb Hi-Fi- Top Ryde (the best place for bargain cds)
Princess one point five- Vous Je Vous
The Late Chord- lights from the wheelhouse
saddleback- night maps
Channels- waiting for the next end of the world
Aaron Martin- River Water
Fireworks Night- As Fools we are
I got all those cds for under $25. I'm pretty sure I didn't even come close to clearing them out of all their good clearance cds too.
I'm not familiar with most of these artists and I am not familiar with any of these cds.
That's great. Wonder if they still have them.
Music Jungle at Vic Market is having a 30% sale off all their CDs. There's some good stuff in there for people who like a good CD bargain.
So you bought them based on the artwork? Weird, Luke.
no. labels, cost and to a lesser extent artwork. i.e the channels cd was put out by discord and was $3. I don't mind spending $3 to check out a discord band.
Jb Hi-Fi Top Ryde is very good for Australian indie too. Hence getting princess one point five, saddleback and Aaron Martin all for cheap.
Redeye - 20% off everything - Moving sale.
yep yep, i wanna get there sometime this week. I got a massive shopping list. The more I spend, the more I save, that's how it works, innit?
You can get the Electric Flu EP for $2 at Beatdisc in Parramatta and Halfback Books & Records in Dee Why
Or by emailing them - electric_flu@hotmail.com
No thanks.
No pressure, but I've heard good things
From Myer, Sydney City:
Arcade Fire - The Suburbs : $9.95

A bunch of really great stuff on the 99c rack at JB HiFi Parramatta yesterday. Sun, Machine Translations, Crayon Fields, Laura Jean, Piklet, Stereolab, Four Tet and a bunch of other local and overseas stuff.
Was that the Westfields one or the one off Church St?
Church Street.
Whooooole bunch of great stuff at Repressed at the moment for $10 a pop. Shitload of Elvis Costello...various other goodies also.
Cheers runo
I've been having amazing luck at op-shops with CDs lately, really cool bands like Ween, Beach House, Atlas Sound, Radiohead all for under $1. It seems the death of the CD isn't all doom and gloom.
Yeah, I grabbed a handful for <$3 a pop of Beck, Pixies, Cody Chestnutt, Dylan and Cohen the other week from Newtown Vinnies. Gotta take another look around.
