Vinyl LP

Dynsdale · 17th March 2006, 07:43 PM

Hi all, Can anyone recomend a good, trustworthy, online store to buy LP's. I havent procured LP's over the net before and, due to the fragility of the medium, am wary of supplier's shipping methods. I have a broad area of musical taste though I am currently looking for Alternative/ Indie type music.
I'm specifically looking for Bush's Sixteen Stone and Golden state.

Advise on do's and dont's wrt online vinyl buying would also be appreciated.
Many thanks,
Cheers,
CB

Boring answer: eBay

Seems like most dealers give up their online stores in favor of eBay despite the cost of selling there.

Maybe somebody else has a favorite eBay seller.

I second the Acoustic Sounds recomendation. I once got a classic reissue of The Reiner Sound with a deep scratch over 90% of the second side (the side I was after in the first place). It was obviously not their fault, the packaging is always flawless, it was definitly damaged before being put in its sleeve. I called them and told them about my problem, and I had a new copy before I got to the post office to send my damaged one back to them!! Great people with a great selection.
