The Bargain Thread!

[Diapason]

I just bought a Harry Connick Jr CD for 1p. Not sure that counts as a bargain mind you.

would that be £1.27 from Amazon, inc P&P?

they saw you coming... ;-)

Indeed. You'll hate me even more if I tell you why I bought it...

Good find, Sean. I wonder is his playing any good? Do I need another Bach set? Hmmm....

You might not need it, but you probably do WANT it.

Had a quick listen to a sample or two online, and I don't think it's for me.

how the purchasing of music has changed within a few years... gone are the days no doubt, of the listening booth at Tower Records (and elsewhere)...

I have bought CDs on the strength of my listening to them online and have rarely been disappointed, it's a sound approach.

It's entirely understandable why this beautiful disk should be creating such interest on Tir Na:

it also happens to be an Amazon bargain... ;-)

FWIW I bought it new from a reseller on Play for €8.72 delivered.

Note to Fergus:

The Josquin is still very competitively priced, however the Ockeghem is now a little more expensive. Future food for thought however, I'm sure you'll agree.
