So now I have

[McFsC]

a turntable that plays vinyl, where would you suggest I buy vinyl records from? Tried eBay and currently bidding on a few items but there's a few specific singles I want. Where has the biggest range and some new release stuff?

Anyone use anything other than eBay?

Usually Amazon.

Or direct from the label if it's a small independant one.

Amazon seem to have a decent range but don't list B-Sides ( not that I can see anyway ) and when buying from not so well known bands can be frustrating.

Just come across this site: http://www.juno.co.uk/

Is it reliable, anyone used it before?

Gemm.com is great for old and rare vinyl.

Used to use Juno years ago when I still DJ'd on vinyl - very good service (back then anyway) in my experience, no frills - just pay your money and get your tunes!

Juno used to be awesome back in the day. I don't know what they're like now it's all digital but they used to be spot on with vinyl. I would assume the service is still very much the same.

My step dad happened to have about 500+ records in the loft. Mostly singles but a good few ( 50 + ) albums. Searching a few on eBay and many are worth a good bit of money. He must have a few £000 worth here at least. Didn't realise just how expensive they can be.

Cheers for the extra input aswell, I'm sure I'll use all of the sites at various times. Love playing them at the minute.

I think my most expensive records are a limited edition, 500 copy version of Mastodon's Blood Mountain album which is worth at least £70 and Cinematic Orchestra's Motion which, last time I checked, was going for about £50.

Decent that.

It's amazing playing the record without the sound turned on and just hearing the pure music being made with no electrics.
