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.
