Doopy is, I think, from Norway, although it may be Sweden.  I cannot
find a place to purchase their 1996 CD titled Game Set Match.  I would
prefer a place that accepts US currency, but will be happy with any
online site that will let me purchase this CD, new or used, at a
reasonable price ($20 or less).  Even GEMM does not have them listed!
Answer  
There is no answer at this time.

Hi,

There is a Swedish punk band called Daisies who released a CD called
"Game, Set, Match" in 1998. This may not be what you want. It is
available from an established online record store called Skivhugget
based in Sweden. They have an international (English) site and will
accept most credit cards. I have used them myself to buy Benny
Andresson CDs.

I hope this was of assistance.

Thanx, wrong band.  I did try that site to find Doopy, but no luck.

Hi,

Doopy were indeed Norwegian. Their CD "Game,Set,Match" was released by
BMG(Norway). It has been quite tricky to find  a Norwegian online CD
store that both stocks this CD and is prepared to ship outside
Scandinavia
I believe I have managed to find a suitable supplier.

Akersmic have an online store:
http://www.akersmic.no/

They have English sites for certain artists only but, if you are
outside Norway, you can place general orders for other srtists by
phone, fax or email. Details are here:
http://www.akersmic.no/english/

The item you require is listed here:

You should click on the CD title in the above link for more
information.

I hope you find this information useful.

This is promising.  Wish I could read whatever language is out there! 
I've sent off an email to see if the CD is in stock and what I need to
do to order.  Will post a follow up comment when I hear back.  Thanx!

Hi 00powerpop00....

I had my former response removed, as an answer, by the editors,
as promised. I'm reposting the results of my research as a comment,
on the chance that there was useful information contained therein.


"If Babel Fish sounds like Crowded House this band's happy pop songs
are most of all inspired by the Swedish band Brainpool (see below).
They existed for one album only. But "Game Set Match" is perfect
for those who are into the typical Swedish pop style. Because - even
as English they look in the pic above - Doopy did sound Swedish.
Available from Compact-Huset."

Quoted from:
http://home.online.no/~knhongro/Geir/pop/Scan.htm

I also checked out the Compact-Huset website:
http://www.compact-huset.no/index.asp

and, though it is in Swedish, I was able to do
a search for the artist, 'Doopy', and the album,
'Game Set Match', both of which produced no results.

I also searched sites that sell used CDs:
http://audiohousecd.com/shopsearch.asp
http://half.ebay.com/products/music/index.cfm
http://www.ordermusic.com/
http://www.spun.com/
http://www.secondspin.com/index.cfm
http://www.bestusedcds.com/

...all with no hits. You may opt to continue
searching the results on the 'used CDs' search
results page (there were over 80,000 hits), but 
I have chosen to give up at this point.

Still haven't heard back from that one promising overseas CD shop, so
I'm still hunting...
