My first bar-code entry was Zap Mama - Sabsylma and they said $.25. But, then, the next one Environments: Dawn and Dusk at New Hope, PA, was $3:18. I think I trust the values, but, will they really pay off? They offer Free Shipping!! With all my $.25 and $.27 CDs I have 42 CDs worth $40.77. I almost want to re-enter the bar-codes for just the ones over $1.00 and either dump the others locally or give them to the library. Thanks. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 7 Sep 2013 15:05:25 -0700 (PDT) From: Ellen Rawson Subject: Re: musicMagpie I doubt that it's intercontinental shipping. I shipped mine to an address in England; I'm sure the US version of Music Magpie goes to somewhere in the US. Yep, just checked. There's a musicMagpie.co.uk (which I've used), a musicMagpie.com for the US folks and a musicMagpie.de for Germany. I'd not checked the fine print to see the other versions. :) I also see that the US office is in Georgia, so that's probably where you'll send your CDs -- they don't need to cross the pond.
