Same as that, I've been following and attending as well!
Thanks for all your hard work and updates, it will be missed if you decide to stop. If that does happen, can you point us in the right direction as to where we can find some information, please?0 -

What sort of music are you interested in? I usually try to get down on Friday afternoon, but I've noticed that the prices are going up to the point where finding a bargain cratedigging is almost impossible. Dealers will have everything priced against their Discogs listing, or maybe a little higher. The other reason to get down early is if you buy something that looks fine, but then get it home and it has excessive noise, like I did last fair, you can pop back down the next day for a refund or exchange.0 -

Thanks for the replies guys! I like a bit of pretty much every sort of genre to be honest, but, in terms of vinyl, I like to search for older stuff that is unavailable on cd or is only available on the crappy early "tinny" cd's or simply to replace old and worn out copies of stuff. I also like to buy some new stuff as well, so a bit of everything really! :pac: I have a couple of albums in my head that I would love to buy, but I've never even been able to find them online - never mind at a record fair...
However, I'll keep looking and hopefully I'll track them down at some stage.... 0 -

I agree with all the points above
Rememeber there are traders downstairs too. If you are going early friday and its busy upstairs, head down. There will be traders with rare and deleted stuff down there as well as bargain bins as well as new re-releases of classics, new releases/limited stuff
If its a colectable or espensive piece ask to examine it, dont buy it first go, go away/come back and then haggle! Of coursebtheres a risk you might lose it but small if its not too obvious.
As previously mentioned take your time. Its 50 tables plus so allow time
Try not to break your budget!0 -
