      name your good and bad

      http://www.juno.co.uk is really good, reliable, quick and records arrive pristine condition, also the order tracker is easy as pie

      red eye records also pretty good

      http://www.htfr.com – fucking shit! records arrived warped as fuck (and other bad shape too, scratches n that) and aparently they’ve been done for bootleggin rare records before. generally shit, i’d avoid.

            I recently used HTFR and found them to be quite reliable, i did buy several records which were packed together and they delivered them very quickly and in superb condition! I like the look of Juno so i may use them next when i need another hit!:love:

            I used Hardervinyl before and the one tune that i well wanted was warped when i got it!

                        Yeh I use Chemical records for all mine, I mainly buy breaks/dnb, they have a good selection and I rarely get a warped record. Also their delivery service is ridiculously fast – a few times I’ve ordered vinyl at 4pm one day and been woken up by the postman the next morning with my records!

                        HTFR are shite, kept giving me warped records. I bought a scratch record off them once and it was warped, so completely useless for scratching. It cost me 15 quid so I sent it back recorded delivery which cost another fiver or something asking for a refund. I never even got a reply. And being lazy I could never be arsed to chase it up so they owe me 20 quid now, cunts.

                            chemical records is what i use if im after something thats pretty mainstream and not too obscure, although if im after somethin rare and proppa bangin that u cant find in any stores i go to http://www.discogs.com but you gotta read peoples feedback and item descriptions before you buy anything, use your greater judgement, ive never been ripped off and ive got some quality tunes from there like dj ricci – the game and max b grant – beeping i definately reccomend it if u cant find something elsewhere. good luck :group_hug

                                one thing i find annoying is when they dont put “out of stock” and you order then getting an e-mail saying “sorry its out of stock”

                                HTFR did this

                                as did rough trade

                                    as for juno.co.uk it has one flaw imo, chemical-records tells you when it is a promo copy, juno “cannot guarentee” if it will be or not.

                                            Out of the ones mentioned above….Juno is alright for finding generic stuff. HTFR is a crock of shite….dodgy vinyl and shit customer service. Chemical-records is alright though also pretty shit customer sevice.

                                            I duno if its mentioned but truelove.co.uk is utter gash. Totally shit service and they refused to refund money for vinyl they didn’t have in stock and would never get back in stock.
