i gotta question.. i have a lot of buffett songs but most of them are live concerts and i want to get all of the studio albums... i see amazon has them for 7.99 a piece but that times 24 is A LOT... so i was wondering if there is some place to buy a bunch of them.. possibly all 24 and get a discount... trying to catch up finally..

thanks for your help in advance

I built a good chunk of my collection on E-Bay. I found several for less than $5 (including shipping). Good place to start.

Walmart is where I got quite a few.

check for any record stores in your area that sell used music. albums, 8 tracks, cassettes etc. if you have a "rasputens" in your area, they sell vinyl albums for $1.95. good luck

Overstock.com is also good for building up the back album collection. Just remember, anytime you need 20 individual items, it isn't going to be completely cheap.

ahh I mean't cds!! lol

Another site that you might take a look at is Half.com. I have bought books and movies on there before and been very pleased with quality and price.

do you guys think that if i pick up the boats beaches box set will cover everything i really need?!

No, I think you'll get plenty that way, then soon need much more. --welcome to my boat!

This is a good place for good prices. Keep in mind you'll need to be an active ebay user to purchase from here.
There in-lies the rub, as I'm not an active user.....darn fishers stole my id a few years back.
I found about 13 of the albums I could use on Half.com, being sold by dvdlegacy. With shipping the 13 CDs came to $113.13. And with a place like that I wouldn't be too surprised to get a discount for a bulk buy like that.

No, BBB&B was actually my first Buffett purchase. I have found that I enjoy the songs not on the set more. Now that I have everything else, I never play it. Build slowly, there are birthdays, Xmas season, anniversaries and other "special" times to get gifts or make a purchase for yourself. Building slowly also gives you the opportunity to enjoy each disk without the distraction of wanting to hear another.

come on... Immediate self-gratification is the American Way... d*m mit..

Have a birthday coming up? Christmas is only four months away. Ask for gift cards, this way you won't get duplicates.

BTW, here's the list of CDs I have, http://www.buffettnews.com/forum/viewto ... 11+records

Buffett Live Buy The eBay!

Amazon's not bad. Hard to beat 7.99, especially if you get free shipping.

Build the collection little by little. Think of it as a conquist.
