Bit slow off the mark but managed to secure one through HMV online for £4.49. Wonder whether we'll ever get a Brian solo gig here in the UK?

Thats's not too bad... cheaper than I paid, but I went for Vinyl Collective as didn't want to risk HMV not having it! Could have saved a couple of quid if I had done...

Still need to pick this up!

I saved more than a couple of quid, every time I look on the VC website I realise just how much I could be tempted to put on the credit card. Having just cleared a loan off I think restraint is key for a while... plus means I can go to more shows if I'm not buying vinyl for the sake of it!

i just bought four records from vc and they were all cheaper than they would have been at my local record store. maybe theyre just more expensive for singles and stuff??

I think VC make a killing on shipping particularly international or thats the impression I got.

Also you should support you independent when you can.

i got four records, and the cost with shipping was about $45

but for the record, (ha...record)... i do shop independent when they carry the vinyl i want...unfortunately, after scouring about ten record stores in the general phoenix area, i came up with nothing by a death in the family or hot water music...so i resorted to vinyl collective and as a bonus, ended up paying less, anyways.

Same with me about the local record stores. They don't really stock the stuff I want. Round here if seems a lot easier to pick up dance 'music' on vinyl than it does proper music!

shipping for vc is $3? well maybe you all from overseas, idk.
just jumping in here randomly.

i guess people just dont buy enough vinyl? the store by me has a decent selection of punk music just...most of the selection is newer music. guess they dont sell enough of the stuff to make it worth the money to keep a bigger selection in stock...

you are not allowed to just jump in! just kidding...my sense of humor gets pretty thin when im tired...what the hell, its like 130 in the morning i need sleep! but yeah the shipping was cheap...

Shipping wasn't that bad to Europe for me. Can't remember exactly, but I think it was like $6... though I may be speaking a bit too soon as I haven't got my record yet!
