How it comes?

How it comes that Radrockers always is the first online site that sells new released albums?
How it comes that the other Christian online sites are later and some are much later with the new released albums?

Radrockers is most of the time the first where you can order cool new stuff.
But the biggest problem of Radrocker is that you always have to buy stuff for $25.

Some European sites are expensive to order CDs from.

As far as Christian distributors go, Radrockers gets the new stuff first for a couple of reasons:

1) They order in bulk. So, instead of stocking 5 or 6 of a new CD, they order 30. Bands and labels like it when they can sell a lot of product fast.

2) They pay for their merch up front or in a predetermined amount of time (credit order). A lot of other distros are notorious for setting up credit orders and then not paying in the predescribed time. So, would you rather sell your stuff to someone who will pay you on time or possibly never?

I haven't bought from Radrockers in months and months. I've started trying to order from the bands themselves or from some sites like The End Records. The End handles a lot more secular stuff, but they have great prices on their Christian stuff. You would need to know what you were looking for when you went to their site, but I've only had good experiences with them thus far.

So End Records is a good place to search for Cds instead of Radrockers?

I've been avoiding radrockers for the most part just because I'm afraid I will end up with one of those bootleg cdrs.

I stick with buying from the band, or CDBaby etc.
