Where are CDs sold unsealed?

Hi there,

Strange question you may think; but up until quite recently I've been able to peruse the sleeve notes for managers, A+R etc with out having to buy loads of pop records I didn't really want. Now they all seem to be sealed.

Does anyone know of anywhere where generally CDs are still sold unsealed?

Tesco carpark, Hackney Central.

Seriously though - I can't remember the last time I came across *new* unsealed CDs.

+1 to Narco's comment.

You might find second hand shops will have open disk boxes out on shelves for your perusal as well.

Another +1 for Discogs – it's a mine of useful information that's resulted in me buying loads more CDs than I would have done otherwise

Ahhh,

Got questioned by security today slicing through the security sticker over a cd in ASDA. Actually when I explained to the guard why i was doing it he was quite receptive, but then told me to stop.
