Thumbs up for Bangcd.com

I was a bit reticent to order from these guys - some of the prices looked too good to be true and they are based in Singapore. However, I took the plunge and ordered 3 CD's on Tuesday this week and they arrived today (Saturday). That's at least as good, if not better, than CDWOW on delivery and about £2 a disc cheaper. (Plus I got a freebie thrown in as well - downside is that it's the Bridget Jones soundtrack - I expect wifey will like it, anyway)
These were current top 10 discs, so hardly obscure and hard to get hold of, but nonetheless this is still fine in my book. I expect I will be using them again.

Yes bought a couple from them last weekend and both have arrived. Their delivery certainly seems to have improved from when they first started out and at those prices you can't go wrong!

My first order a couple of weeks ago, RHCP Stadium Arcadium £8.99 inc P&P.

The packaging is different to the UK version, which makes it plesently different

It turned up in around 5 days and i'm highly delighted too , I have ordered before from CDwow and the cd's have arrived with smashed cases ETC.

Perhaps they are pirate CDs?

I hear that the copies that come out of the Far East are indistinguishable from an original CD.

Are you suggesting a e-tailer is risking selling pirate material to anyone whom orders from their site? Sounds mighty dangerous to me.

Nothing to do of course that they are coming from a cheaper economy country.

If they are based in the Far East surely they could not be prosecuted.

Not saying they sell pirate CDs by the way, just throwing a question into the mix.

I've bought a lot from them since the last thread about them, including special editions not sold here.

If they are pirates, which I doubt, I think they would have been sussed by now.

Theres no way my copy of Stadium Arcadium is a pirate copy as theres a Warner Music, Singapore leaflet in the booklet sleeve to win a CD hamper .also the CD's themselves have Warner Music etched onto them in the centre of the disc.

I think that they must be buying in large quantities and passing the savings onto the customer.
