I gotta say, I stopped ordering from Intermezzo after they upped their shipping prices sky high. It used to be reasonable, now it's 14 euros for 2 CDs to the US. I understand that's for registered mail, but it still makes shopping their prohibitive.
Postage from Italy is high. It all depends on how much you order of course... Sending only 2 discs is expensive, but sending 8 only ups it to 21 euro for the US I can see... Still a lot but more reasonable.
Beat Records are cheaper on postage if you buy only 2... But if you buy 8 like I do often, postage is suddenly 19 euro and only 14,40 at intermezzo (I live in Denmark but it's probably the same for the rest of Western Europe).
Soundtrackcorner.de have cheaper postage but their prices are usually higher thereby eating what you saved on postage.
www.dustygroove.com have usually nice prices and a fair postage if you buy 2 or more cds but you run into the chance of it being picked up in customs and voila double the price
It's a puzzle choosing the right one and one should probably shop around and see what fits the current need. Intermezzomedia had a campaing some months ago where postage was only 1 euro if you bought 8 or more cds. That would be a very welcome repeated arrangement
