I tend to buy most of my CDs used from the $4 to $8 range, but I will buy new CDs when they are on sale in the $9.99 to $12.99 range if they are CDs that I really want. I did just buy a number of CDs from CDBaby for $5 each, but these are of bands that I hadn't heard of, but their descriptions sounded like bands that I would enjoy.

$15 is the absolute max I believe an album should cost. The only exceptions would be if it's a double album or if it's really rare or something like that.

New albums in Denmark often cost as much as $25, which is a completely ridiculous price IMO. I seldom purchase CDs in stores for that very reason. I almost always purchase music via Amazon.

i tend to buy mostly used albums.

Answer to this question depends on which country you live in. I'm a bit surprised that the current prices are too high for you guys, they are way too high for me but let's take look at this...

Average monthly wages in $:
Germany - 2838
France - 2845
UK - 2556
Poland - 815 

So to me, the most reasonable price would be 2-4 dollars, ha ha ha.
