Buying used CD's.

Just curious if anyone here is from Canada and buys their used CD's from the USA. Wouldn't mind hearing if your experiences have been good/bad, and what to look out for regarding tax, customs & excise, etc. I've been looking at SecondSpin.com and the selection seems pretty good, as are the prices (after conversion, still half the cost of buying new where I am). While I'm at it, maybe someone knows of a good online store selling used CD's actually in Canada? FWIW, Google hasn't been particularly helpful for finding answers to these questions. Doesn't seem like it's something talked about very often (perhaps because of p2p being so big these days?).

While I don't live in Canada, I have ordered from SecondSpin a couple of times a few years back and I've been happy with the service and quality of the CDs. Your local customs information webpage probably has information about taxes etc. Where I live (Norway) anything below 200NKR value is tax-free for import, perhaps Canada has similar regulations?
