German on-line CD shoppes?

Anyone out there have any suggestions. Amazon.de & German Music Express are too expensive and I can’t seem to find any others that have a good selection of German artists. My requirements: they have to ship to the US and it would be nice if they had an English page (although I could probably get my without it ).
Tack!

Hey Thanks Sportsfan!
I’ll check those out. Amazon.de has pretty good prices on their CD’s but the shipping is ridiculous! Last time I looked, it was roughly 3 times what it costs to import stuff from Sweden. That was really shocking because Amazon in the US & UK is quite cheap as far as shipping. I don’t know, maybe there are issues which just make it more expensive to ship out of Germany?
Thanks again for the tips!

That’s where I finally found the brainpool CD that I was looking for for ages.

@Perfanatic: What kind of German music are you interestered in? Sometimes the record companies do post stuff, too.

I’m mostly looking for German (or German produced) dance/techno acts like: Scooter, Sash!, Modern Talking, ATC, Blumchen, E-rotic, Missing Heart, Captain Jack, etc.. Also Alphaville and Sandra.

Ahhh, Alphaville is *pretty* cool. 8) That should be available even on the band’s website, I think (as download) or on www.indietective.de (where you won’t find Scooter and Modern Talking, I think).
You should get all the stuff on www.jpc.de, too. I’ve checked the website recently and noticed that they indeed do ship things abroad.

Difficult, I guess. You can have a try with www.indietective.de
They are pretty expensive too, though, but at least they do ship things abroad. However, they tend to focus on independent music (Deine Lakaien, De/Vision, Nine Inch Nails, Depeche Mode), hence the name. You should give it a try, though.
You should also try: www.jpc.de (though I do not know whether they ship things abroad...), www.cd4you.de, www.wom.de
There are lots of other German online-shops, but these are the ones besides www.amazon.de and www.bol.de that instantly spring to my mind. However, I guess you actually get the best deal at amazon (but you should really try www.jpc.de as they aren’t _that_ expensive, too).
Cheers.
