Specific music (not "popular" bands but more specific albums and/or soundtracks).

Specific computer equipment such as a Wacom tablet.

Animes available in the UK...

These are more importantly "local". That is to say I don't have to worry about shipping from Australia or America or whatever... they ship from within the UK and will arrive within a week. If I'm willing to go further afield I can usually find anything I want.

Actually, I should amend mine. There are a few relatively decent places that ship quality radioactives, but the online prices are disgusting and they move around so goddamn much.
