I'm in the US, and I'm totally going Bonkers over the fact that I can't order a CD without paying 50 bucks! I would love to have the collection and its really hard to get it over here, especially in a town that doesn't carry Happy Hardcore/UK Hardcore anywhere!
I own, Bonkers 16. I'd love to support hardcore, but its hard when its always 50 bucks and your credit card company doesn't like you ordering from another country. :(

buy more than one CD and then you might cut the price. And why arent you buying from the UK? you wont get the VAT tax we Europeans have to pay

$50 for a cd??? Why not just order from Amazon or any other shopping site?? It usually does the conversion rate for you while checking out in PayPal. ATM $50 USD is around 31.44. As far as I know you don't actually get charged extra unless you're overseas using your credit card. Shopping online is different.
But then again I know how it is paying a lot more for a CD or individual tracks. Their money is worth more than ours so we'll be paying more in the long run, lol.
Right now you can pre-order the Hardcore Addiction 4 CD for $20! ;)

Actually only residents of EU, when I order stuff from e.g. the UK, they remove VAT from the price. Of course, I usually get slammed with our 25% tax instead, but it's better than being taxed twice

The latest NSR CD is the same price for customers no matter where in the world you are from and shipping is free, no matter where you live.
http://www.nsrrecords.co.uk/nsr-store
So not quite 50 bucks for that one....more like 13-14 bucks.

Yeah like I said paying in GBP makes it more expensive for us. You just gotta deal with it. :( Exchange rates are a b*tch.

Amazon is totally overpriced on these CDs. I did order Bonkers 14 and Best of for like 20 bucks all together from someone on Amazon.
I just found out about Discogs and how you can buy music off of there. Just ordered Bonkers 1, X, 13, and 15. I will let you all know when it comes in. I'm pretty sure a lot of the sellers are legit, because of their ratings. Also, why would you screw someone over on a hardcore CD! LOL

I bought Hardcore Adrenaline 2 + 3 together in February, which almost blew my budget. I had a headache, when I clicked the "buy"-button and tbh, based on the CD's I have listened to so far, I am disappointed.

Well, what I do is..
1. go to amazon.co.uk
2. I use the "New & Used" option and buy from an independent seller.
I can usually get a new copy for under $20 USD, and a used copy for under $10 USD, and that includes shipping.
