Hi Gang...
With vinyl making a comeback and pricing being a potential issue... I recently found this site last week that has, IMHO, really reasonable prices. Apparently, the actual company that presses the records has a storefront, which eliminates a level or two of profit along the way. They have music sorted by genre, size and even a link to their 180g vinyl.

When I saw that the prices for some compilations I was interested in (2 x Future Jazz & Brazilectro Session 3) was about the same, if not cheaper than a new CD, I ended up ordering the three compilations. I got a confirmation email almost immediately and my package showed up three days later.
So, my experience has been pretty good. And if you get compilations or full albums... the pricing per track is probably the same as if you paid for iTunes downloads.
Here is my second order:
1 661868258318 Danny Tenaglia - Space Dance [Remixes] (2x12'' in Glow In The Dark Jacket) $9.98
1 804223101663 Gaelle - Rain $5.98
1 741157304015 Various - Funk Instrumentals [LP] (Sly Stone, Billy Preston, Ohio Players and The Commodores) $16.98
1 790185011013 Various Artists - Bossa Mundo 2 [2 LP] $8.98
1 804223500718 Various Artists - Carte Blanche Vol. 2 [2 LP] $12.98
1 804223501111 Various Artists - Carte Blanche Vol. 3 [2 LP] $12.98
1 828272170258 Various Artists - Gu Mixed 2 [3 LP] $22.98
