| lol, you think stuff over there is overpriced! If you want to buy a cd (album) over here, i'd say average price is around £13?? (dont think i've actually ever bought an album, it's against my religon) .. so that's $24? .. welcome to England. |

I'm afraid CD prices in the UK are much higher that in the states. It's a well known fact over here that we get totally ripped off compared to you lucky bastards in America who get everything cheap!
/Rant over |

Your nearest largest ones are on the corner of tottenham court road and oxford street (virgin mega store) and down oxford street (HMV)
although cd's are pretty expensive here these two stores do have some pretty good offers on every now and again. |
