p(sy)ayam Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 i was wondering why the new CD prices on amazon are so cheap compare to other websites. am i really supporting the artist by buying from amazon? even when amazon's price is not cheap, there are few sellers that sell these items for cheap.

I sometimes order from Amazon because yeah, like you say, they can be dirt cheap But then again Amazon marketplace offers work from sellers such as Twisted so I guess you're still supporting the smaller outlets when you order.

Darkarbiter Posted October 10, 2008 Share Posted October 10, 2008 Well I'm guessing you'll probably give the original artist a SLIGHTLY higher amount of money or get it slightly cheaper buying direct, but the profit margins on sites like amazon etc run in the cents, so don't really worry about it.

abasio Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 How did it work out ordering from Amazon? I've never had a problem. Their prices are not always great, especially for rarer releases. I guessed they good have cheap prices due to the fact they are a big business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
