You all are lucky. My local CD shop stopped stocking used soundtracks because they said, "they don't sell". :-(
Tell them to keep an eye out for used film scores and that you'll be interested in buying.

I was surprised as could be that I recently found a used CD of FSM's FANTASTIC VOYAGE at a Slackers for under $10.00! I've only ever found four limited editions from the online labels (due to being stuck in the middle of Missouri, I'm sure) and two of them have been doozies! Back in college (nearly 10 years ago for me) I found THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE...which I've happily held onto.
Other recent happy finds include Goldsmith's EXPLORERS and POWDER, Pete Rugolo's THE FUGITIVE, Georges Delerue's SILKWOOD, David Newman's composer promo of GALAXY QUEST, and WITHNAIL AND I...all less than $10 apiece. I try to "make the rounds" once a week.

Guys, used cd stores make their money from rock- the staff are young kids who usually know squat about soundtracks. Lets keep it that way

I wonder how the heck these limited edition CDs sometimes end up in shops rather than traded amongst collectors...
maybe the people who own these titles are not collectors.
if you dont browse sites like this you would not know that certain score are rare and $$$$$$$

I found a mint copy of HOPE AND GLORY, a very early Varèse CD, in a used CD store. Nice score, not sure yet, if I'm going to keep it though....

I've found some ultra-rare stuff over the years...
I found a new, sealed CD copy of COCOON, the original Polydor release, in the mid-nineties for about $5. (This was years before the PEG rerelease.) I'll never forget how excited I was. I ended up giving it to a friend; at the time, the PEG edition was still in print. Would that I knew then what I know now...
About five years ago I found a mint copy of the Varese Club VIBES in the $3 bargain bin at a CD store in Clemson, SC. I ended up selling it off to SAE; I thought it was a boring listen, notable strictly for its scarcity.
Not long ago I found a mint copy of JAC Redford's HEAVYWEIGHTS promo at a thrift store for $3. I listened to it once then politely moved it into the "to be sold" box.
Just a few weeks ago I found a copy of the new expanded release of HALLOWEEN III for $7 at a local music score. (I guess when they priced it they neglected to notice that the copies that are for sale on Amazon are CDRs.) That one I'm keeping. That creepy "Halloween Montage" song is the shit.
Found some great stuff on LP over the past few years, too, which haven't hit CD in the states yet: Alex North and Robbie Robertson's CARNY; Mason Daring's LIANNA; Riz Ortolani's WOMEN OF THE WORLD, to name a few off the top of my head. Getting into LP collecting opened up a whole new world for me... oh, the wonderful stuff I have discovered.
