Well... I'm taking the plunge and trying to buy "Live At The Roundhouse" on CD/DVD.

Amazon Japan only offer expedited fast shipping, which even thought the item costs £17 the shipping cost (and the only option) is £25, so £42!

HMV? Cost of £30, inc shipping, and for some reason won't accept the UK as a delivery address

Amazon US will ship Used and New, but the item costs £25 and shipping £5

Why is it so damn hard to buy this? Is there anywhere cheaper?

Are you sure about HMV? By my calculations it's only about £17.

According to their table, shipping is about £12.

CD Japan might be another option:

About £18.50 for the disc, and SAL (Surface Air Lift) shipping would be about £4 to £6.

Isn't this just a physical release of what was given for free on iTunes?

$40US shipped from Amazon... seems pretty steep to me for only 6 tracks. :confused:

1) It wasn't free on iTunes
2) It has a DVD

Admittedly, I'm new to ordering direct from Japan (I last did so 11 years ago), but I couldn't find the slightly cheaper options... CD Japan, I think it is. On the other hand if the webstore sold it..
