    I've just found one of them. It seems you have to be quite accurate as to what you type in...

    Only 600+ to go...
    In - Tweaked Lenco GL75, Linn Ittok, Ortofon Cadenza Black
    Through - Croft Micro 25 RS LS, power R monoblocks, RIAA R. Ortofon ST-80 SE SUT.
    Along - Tellurium Q Ultra Black cables
    Out - Harbeth SHL5 Plus XD's

    Waste of time. Unless i'm doing something wrong...
    Hmm. Of the 865 currently in my collection, it found all but 82 of them. Of the 82 that I had to contribute myself, 65 were 'classical' - so for other genrés, i seem to have a good sucess in finding recordings already in the database.

    What were the 4 releases you tried to find?

    I always start off by entering the catalogue number first.

    Don't always be fooled by 1st issues etc.. I found that many re-issues sound better for a hell of a difference in asking price. However your either a music lover or a collector!

    Browsed at the Great Western Rd branch in Glasgow many years ago and noticed the vastly inflated prices,
    asked the young assistant how they came about the prices and she gave me a Glaikit look and got a senior member,
    he said they have a guide and thats what it's based on with a sharp take it or leave it response,
    i left it and never set foot on a Oxfam shop again.

    Hi there,

    There were some server issues that were hopefully resolved over the weekend. Our apologies about the inconvenience. Let us know if it's still an issue.

    Respectfully,

    Brent "



    Hopefully it may work better now , will try again tonight

    Discogs gimped out big time last week. All seems back to normality now though.

    Never let anything cause you to doubt your ability to demonstrate the truth.
