    I thought id post this question in this forum since we're the ones who are most likely to still buy and use vinyl.

    Anyway where is the best place to buy vinyl online? Please give your thoughts and recommendations.

    Has anyone had anyone previous dealings buying vinyl online. Shipping costs etc

    Thanks

    eBay can pay off if your careful about the buyers past record and get assurances about the quality. Buying in bulk saves postage costs too.

    Juno have been around for years - never bought from them but seem to be a serious shop. htfr.co.uk are supposed to be costly (I think?)

    my regular places for vinyl online are...

    www.gemm.com - make sure to check item description for when it was last updated by seller. Sometimes they do not update and the item is no longer there. Also, only buy from gemm approved resellers ideally with 4 stars+. Its also advisable to check where the seller is as that will obviously impact on shipping and time.

    www.replayrecords.com Good value site with fast and not bad price shipping. I have found many classics on this site for very good prices. They only list what they have in stock. UK site.

    www.htfr.com Good in general but my only complaint would be a few bad bootlegs have ended up in my collection as a result of htfr.com

    www.ebay.co.uk as said previously, check the sellers rating and read up on how to bid etc. I have spent mad money on ebay because you can end up bidding against a few people for a track you really want. I spent around 70 euro for a 3 x 12" pack a few weeks ago! - well worth it though, wanted it for years. Ebay can be addictive though, I have stayed away for a few weeks now!

    Last lot of records I bought were from replay and for around 6 x 12" it cost around 14 euro to ship but that was insured + registered.

    www.tunes.co.uk
    www.dancerecords.com

    Never actually bought anything off them but I use the sites to listen to previews of new music and get recommendations, have a look
