I thought it'll be nice to put up a list of all the online stores people can buy Jrock CDs and other stuff from. Granted most people here already know, but for the future newbies, this might be helpful.
If you guys know any other good stores or any that I missed, just give me the link and I'll edit it up here. You all can talk about your experiences so people can get an idea which place would be good to buy from.

As a rule for me, when shopping around I always check on CDJapan and Amazon.co.jp first for CDs since they have a large catalogue and you can find what you're looking for easily.
If you're thinking of shopping on Ebay, be wary that there are bootleg CDs running rampant there which makes it difficult to search for authentic cds. And if it says anywhere that it's produced by Miya Records, don't buy that crap!! It's a bootleg!

I want to see, real, living, and in the hours of my own days, that glory I create as an illusion. I want it real. I want to know that there is someone, somewhere, who wants it, too. Or else what is the use of burning oneself for an impossible vision? A spirit, too, needs fuel. It can run dry.
~ Ayn Rand
If there should be any sort of philosophy or ideal I live by, I want it to be this one. To realize the dream, to weave it, and then to transcend it into the folds of reality for it to live in itself, this principle is as worthy as any other. If it is here not to remind me of the greater truths in life, then it is here to comfort me, to let me know the capabilities of self-achievement, and to allow me to wonder of the possibilities I strive to create.
