Hi all.
As a teenager I used to pop up the local record shop frequently to buy a new LP!
Obviously many shops have disappeared and having only just got back into vinyl (@42:() I've been buying from eBay.

Can you tell me where you all buy yours from please so I have a few more options.
Many thanks & Cheers :)

Kays no longer there then?
I get mine from online shops such as Left Legged Pineapple.

Kays was my local Cagey yes! Was a great shop and not shut down that long ago really.
I'll take a look at your suggestion.
Many thanks.

Discogs is great but buy only NM or M which means you'l get a decent LP, VG+ can mean complete shit or very good.

I buy new when I can afford it or via Discogs and move stuff back on that I don't like, if you buy good stuff you can do this but buy cheap shite and you'll be left with it.

Our very own Scott Nangle (daytona600) has a fantastic on-line ecord shop at great prices, certainly comparable to the likes of E-bay and Amazon.

Nice 1 thanks Tony, I'll have a browse.
Thanks for the info on Discogs too. I've had a look on that site already.
Cheers!
