Hello everyone , as requested here are a few reviews on CDUniverse.com
I discovered cduniverse by accident, but I’m really glad I did. Here I can satisfy my desire for music nobody else seems to want to sell. If you’re into the kind of music I am and you can’t find it, you probably haven’t looked here.
As for the cost, I find that these guys are usually cheaper on the whole, however I try to buy at least three or four CDs at a time as postal rates to Britain are fairly high, although in comparison to places like Amazon they are the norm.
This site was the only place I could find the Soundtrack to American Pie, and it is always the first place i will go and search if I fancy buying some CDs.
They also sell other media items as well eg DVDs etc, and have cool free downloads on offer. I can recommend this site, generally fast, but sometimes with a few glitches and definitely worth any effort.

Have placed two pre-orders from them, one for a game and the other for a DVD. The first arrived quickly, within about 2-3 days. On the second order, I received an error message saying my credit card couldn’t be charged so that my order would be shipped out. I contacted them, and received a response the next day saying it was an error. When I received the DVD (which I received 3 days later), I noticed on the invoice they gave me free shipping, which I had no idea they were going to do. I would definately do business with again!

I used CD Universe to order EU3 Limited Edition. It was the ONLY on-line store that had the LE edition.
This particular item was very hard to find. Targets were suppose to carry this in their stores, but at this point had not put it on their shelves. EB Games and such only had the non LE edition.
Normally I wouldn’t care or obsess so much about finding an LE edition, but this LE edition gives you access to beta patches and exclusive content, etc etc.
So I was overjoyed when CD Universe had this item. I ordered it. It shipped out the next day and went out US Mail.
I prefer sellers to have a US Mail option. That gives Saturday delivery a possibility and is cheaper. Shipping and handling was 3.99 – fair for a game.
Another plus is they use google checkout, something I’d much rather use than paypal.
Also, when I inquired whether my package was shipped – they got back to me very quickly on the status.
All and all it was a good experience.

I’ve ordered from cduniverse.com many times over the course of the past few years. I’ve got nothing but great things to say about this place. Where to begin?
I’ve purchased numerous music CD’s. They’re always the cheapest…especially when compared to Amazon. Shipping is fast and packaging is good. I’ve never had a damaged product and nothing has ever taken longer than 5 days to receive.
My latest purchase came today. Actually, I purchased 3 DVD’s yesterday, and then purchased a 4th today. All the DVD’s were $2 to $8 cheaper than Amazon. Further, with the purchase I made this morning, it actually gave me the opportunity to include it with the order I made yesterday without increasing my shipping charges. You know that most other companies will not let you combine multiple orders over multiple days since they want to gouge you on shipping. I could’t believe that CDUNIVERSE.COM gave me that option.
*NOTE – if you’re buying a music CD, they have 30 second snippets of EVERY song on the CD that you can preview. GREAT FEATURE. Most other sites only let you preview half the songs.
Bottom Line: Do not hesitate to buy from this site. Great prices, fast shipping, good packaging, good purchasing/shipping updates via email. They’re fantastic!!!
