Germany has Chris Soundtrack Corner (does anyone know what they are doing with regards to orders from UK customers?)
I ordered some stuff before Christmas in his free shipping offer. Still not dispatched yet. Said he had to restock (which sounds disturbingly Elite-soundtracky, but he has a good reputation so we'll see).

I ordered from Chris's Soundtrack Corner during the free postage offer too - ordered 2 CDs (one a 2 disc set) the day the offer went live, but the discs weren't sent until the 3/4th of Jan - they showed up in the UK fine last week, unhindered by customs. But I don't know if that was down to sheer luck...
One thing's for sure, living on Plague Island with the Tories in full control is no fun at all.

...But the fish are proud to be British.
What I heard is that Packages won't be stopped for the first 6 months ?.
I thought the free postage offer was only within Germany ?.

There are a few actually....
Backtrack in Rye. Very good
Elite Soundtracks. Very Bad. Avoid
Lionel Woodman who sells mainly Italian soundtracks. Also very good
I've just had a look for Backtrack. They have no online shop. I'm well aware of how bad Elite Soundtracks are. And Lionel Woodman doesn't sound very good if you're after non-Italian releases. So, essentially there are no decent soundtrack retailers in the UK.
Here is Backtrack link...
https://www.backtrackrye.com
They have monthly catalogues and they post quickly...

There's also The Soundtrack to Your Life, although they seem to focus on mainstream releases rather than the limited editions. They're great if you're after older catalogue titles at decent prices.

I delivered a parcel to a customer on Monday , from Germany, the size of a football. There were no signs of any customs tampering, teeth marks or otherwise.

I have spoken to Geoff in Backtrack..... He hasn't got any plans to ramp up his orders. Now I have explained the situation he may reconsider, but I suspect he will see how it goes and if he is selling out of his Music box tiles, for example, will start ordering more. The advantages of running a cooperative is that is non profit and we are cutting out Geoff and the other UK retailers.
Also someone has the responsibility, I would imagine. And if I'm honest I would like the benefits but not the onus.

I really hope you guys find a way to have easy access to "foreign" CDs, but please refrain from the political adverts. Thanks.

Apologies - it was more of a lament than anything else.

Hi folks
Dislike the postage costs to the UK as anyone else here.
This might be a crazy idea, for multiple reasons possibly:
How about:
The label provides lossless downloads.
Produces the booklet as normal
Sends the booklet to the customer along with the preprinted sticky cd label.
The booklets and the labels would presumably fit into a standard letter sized envelope.
Standard letter sized envelopes cheaper to post than small packages and more likely to clear customs.
No jewel case cost for the label - customer can bulk buy jewel cases from supplier of choice.
Customer bulk buys blank cds from supplier of choice.
As previously stated this is probably totally crazy, and impractical, but it might get some other ideas rolling.
Regards
CC
