as another person actually running a record "store", i'm with tom.
@jeff...what does it matter if bnent crayon has loads of records listed that they don't have? i don't see how that's a useful comparison. forced exposure is not much better. they've also screwed up my order a couple times. i think gramaphone looks pretty promising, as long as they keep ordering new records. the best online record store in the usa is dancerecords.com. sure, all the more undeground/good stuff sells out fast, but their re-order system works very well. click a button, it gets re-ordered, you get an email when it's back in. very fast shipping, affordable shipping and frequent shipping deals (free over $50). this place reminds me of how groovetech used to be.
