Probably not the most efficient, but now that I've friended stores I know, I can go through them like this:
Takes a few minutes, and I don't always find the stuff I want, but it avoids most of the problems bodysnatcher mentioned.
But you're right about the notifications. I have 24 items on my wantlist. Why do I get two notifications a day about 30-40 new items from my wantlist hitting the market? It's garbage.

Agreed. Really wish you could add specifics to your notifications, like only get notified about sellers in the US.

I never use the email feature, it's useless. I have a link saved that brings me to my want list in the store, US dollars only, new in last 24 hours, and I visit it a few times per day when I'm in a shopping mood.

I ordered the expanded reissue of Warren Zevon's "Stand in the Fire" earlier this week; it was the last copy at retail price I could find anywhere

I treated myself to a few albums this week. Ones I’ve been after for a long whole.
Miles Davis - Miles Davis Live at Carnegie Hall. For a long time this was my only jazz cd and it still reigns as my favourite.
The Black Crowes - Croweology. Love me some acoustic Crowes.
Blue Oyster Cult - Some Enchanted Evening (2 lap version).

Super fucking expensive.
I bought FTM.

Merge Records has a 30% off page that they update every two weeks or so with new titles from their back catalog, including limited edition colored vinyl. Worth checking out!
https://www.mergerecords.com/store/30_off
EDIT: They do free shipping on every order, too.

Remastered HGM "Poor Moon" is a steal at $14. I'd jump on that if I didn't already have it.

I ordered a copy of The Decemberists most recent live album (it's basically Hazards of Love live) from Discogs and expected the black vinyl version--pleasantly surprised that it was the limited bone-white that sells for twice the price that came instead! Hazzuh!
