Where to buy Dutch CD singles?

#1 Post by Marcus »

I like these paper covers. Does anyone know a dutch CD shop that will ship to Germany? Import shops here either don't have the CDs or are to expensive.

www.cdon.com works all over Europe and they got the papersleeve singles. Or at least, used to, haven't checked them for PSB releases in quite a while

Of course I know your homepage, we've been discussing the WEG12"es recently.
I also know the shop, but think 8 euros plus shipping is a bit expensive.

Pertan, that website doesn't mention Dutch cd-singles, only UK imports.

I second the advice of Ronald. Contact maarten @ plato . nl

He can help you.

ahh now I understand! But I don't think you will get them cheaper at the time when those are released. Maybe you will get one on Ebay from time to time in the months after the release.
I also heard some people (living in the 'Ruhrpott' area), who bought such cardsleeve singles from their local cd & vinyl shop. Seems there are some shops which are selling these in Oberhausen/Duisburg/Essen/Dortmund/Cologne

No, there are not UK imports...

Swedens first choice is always dutch imports (or german)
Not very often I see a UK import in Sweden....

what? really? Always thought you only get UK imports in Norge and Sverige and the European things in Finland only.

I Don't buy my CD singles in stores/record shops these days but I am
very convinced that it's the same. The swedish cd stores online sells dutch anyhow.

All 12" and CDs I bought from late 80ths to
late 90ths in record shops was dutch or german.

Is there a way to contact Maarten from www.plato.nl directly? This site is in Dutch and I can't understand enough. 4.50 for a cd single seems ok.

You wouldn't have needed to ask this, if you had read my previous contribution to this thread... :roll:
