Assuming there is a domestic release and assuming that it's readily
available.

You also have to weigh the shipping/handling/postage cost if you order a
small amount of CDs from online shops. If I ordered Trash from CDNow at
$10.99, I'd prob'ly have to pay another $4 for s/h/postage. If I bought
it locally, I'd prob'ly have to pay about $12-$14 + about 7% tax. I *did*
get it from bent crayon and since I order so much at a time, I got it for
$17 and s/h/postage came out to about $0.75 for that CD. It all evens
out.....
