AOL ShoppingBuddy
So AIM has this new series of bots and stuff which are suppose to be useful, and ShoppingBuddy is one of them. Since I was bored I thought I would see what it is all about. Basically you type what you want and it goes to find it. Naturally, I type "ayumi hamasaki" (cause we all know that is the only stuff worth buying online
 ) and this is what I get:ShoppingBuddy: - Search results for ayumi hamasaki - No Way To Say [$15.99] - Evolution [$20.99] - Excerpts From Ayu-Mi-X: Hex Hecto [$23.99] - Carlos (+ Bonus DVD) [$27.99] - Monochrome [$18.99] - Boys & Girls [$21.99] - Seasons [$18.99] - Ayu-Mi-X V.3 (JPN) [$47.99] - Super Euro-Beat Ayu-Ro Mix [$47.99] Can anyone say... over priced? Just thought I would share my findings. Oh and I think the store it links to is towerrecords or something, not sure.

Well they're expensive because they're imports.

Wow, $45 for MY STORY? That actually really is overpriced, even for an import.
And does it really say that monochrome is a single? Makes me wonder if it's the real deal, especially since it's $14.99, which is really cheap for an imported single...

The reason behind why the discs are so expensive is because these stores order only a small amount of import CD's since they don't specialize in them (unlike CDjapan or YesAsia). To make up for the cost of ordering the CD's in these limited quantities, they charge more upfront.
