    Default Catching Up

    I've decided to give a few of the plays I missed a chance, and am thinking about plugging a few gaps in my collection. Is there anywhere on-line that sells old (i.e a year +) Big Finish CD's fairly cheaply? On-line bookstores and the like?

    What's annoying is that neither Play or Amazon include the words "Big Finish" in the descriptions on their website, so there's no search you can do for just the Big Finish plays that doesn't bring back all the BBC shit as well.

    Si.

    Only the first 50 BFs have had any real discount - the rest still sell for whatever they sold when they were brand new. http://www.find-book.co.uk/ lets you compare different stores for named stories and they cover the major sites. You're unlikely to get much below a tenner each though even if you shop around.
    Dennis, Francois, Melba and Smasher are competing to see who can wine and dine Lola Whitecastle and win the contract to write her memoirs. Can Dennis learn how to be charming? Can Francois concentrate on anything else when food is on the table? Will Smasher keep his temper under control?

    If only the 28th century didn't keep popping up to get in Dennis's way...

    I got "Death In Blackpool" for £4 recently! I wondered if there were any similar such bargains. It's dissapointing, as so few sellers seem to actually do them. If you put "City of Spires" into Ebay you get one result, and that's not a store.

    Ebay might be worth a try, if you keep checking back. It's where I was offloading all of my BFs a few years ago...

    I like the sound of some of the new Big Finish stories but I really wish that their download service was cheaper. If it was under a tenner to download a story I'd definitely be more tempted to listen.
