Firstly if this is in the wrong place I'M sorry but it seemed the place to put it!
So where do you get your Prog?
A place I have used a few times is "The Freakemporium"
I don't know if you know this place here but here is a link.

http://www.freakemporium.com/


They have some good stuff there, it's worth a visit.

(I am NOT connected to this site in anyway! Just thought if you don't already know of it, you might like to check it out)

I usually get my CDs from local record stores in Rome, and sometimes abroad as well (mainly in Britain, which is the foreign country I visit most often). I have also ordered CDs from Amazon from time to time, and have no complaint about the service (though I've been waiting for UK's "Danger Money" for close to two months now...).

In the last 3 or 4 years i have bought most albums from Amazon or Ebay, though with LP's you have to be extremely careful to buy from a trustworthy seller. Most of the classical music sellers are ok.
I know many shops and suppliers in London, new and second hand, and i can get most things.
 
BTW Raffaella, the UK album you are after is on Ebay on vinyl, there are a few from £2.00.

Laser CD for rarer prog.
CD Universe for more common stuff (they have a good selection and prices).

I also use Amazon and eBay too.

Equally online and in stores. My favorites:

Amazon (mostly the sellers)
CD Wherehouse
Greg Walker (amazing selection and service)
Laser CD
CD Universe (good prices on new CDs)
Best Buy (if there's a good sale)

Haven't used eBay, though.

I get mine from CMDistro (www.cmdistro.com), the band members' websites, and there's a local record shop (in fact, quite a few) here in Spokane, WA, that carry a large selection of prog and prog-related releases.  I went there a few days ago and finished up my Rush collection (I now have every single record they made, studio and liveThumbs Up).  The local Best Buy is pretty good too for carrying stuff I listen to, though (shame, shame, shame) they don't have the new Leaves' Eyes EP (Legend Land, which I've been waiting for, on pins and needles, for over a month).

Amazon for me. And sometimes I get lucky at a used CD store about 20 miles from me.

I'm amazed at what people turn in to this store.
Bring me my broadsword, and clear understanding.

I get most of mine from Will at www.caerllysimusic.co.uk. Excellent service and a little hand-written note with each CD.
