Buying Power

Primo condition?A word of warning when purchasing music and movies overseas -- many of the containers will be open, whether the product is new or used. Only the packaging is in the bins, and the discs are stored behind the counter (this almost always applies to music). Ask to inspect any unwrapped CDs and DVDs before purchasing them so you can be sure they are not scratched. If you have a laptop or a portable CD player, it might also be good to test the discs once you buy them, just to make sure they aren't defective. Better to know now than to wait until you're home and can't do anything about it.
