Sources for Difficult to Find Recordings

I have recently found a good source for new CD’s that are out of print or hard to find in the USA. It is the Crotchet Web Store in the U.K. Many big labels don’t release their entire catalogs in the US but they are available in the UK. Crotchet’s is a specialist store for classical music, jazz, film soundtracks, world music and audio books. They have direct supply arrangements with all the major and most of the minor music and media companies in the UK and supply some very difficult to find items. For orders from the USA their prices deduct the Value Added Tax so the prices aren’t too bad. They also calculate shipping by the each, so box sets are actually a bargain to ship. I have placed four orders with them over the last two months and all have gone smoothly. The order usually arrives within two weeks. Do any of you have a favorite obscure music site?
