Where do you buy the disks? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] SheeEttin@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) Ebay. If you're outside the US, you'll probably be better off with a more local site. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Hopfgeist@feddit.de 1 point 2 years ago ebay is very international, and is also by far the greatest site for second-hand stuff in most European countries.
