Where Are You Buying Your Records & CDs From

Many albums that I'd been anticipating (Margo Price, Willie Nelson) have been pushed back from March/April due to the virus.

 

I'm not buying much, but when I do I'm shopping online as usual.

 

none. plenty of cd's, cassettes and records to listen to until this blows over..I did get the pearl jam album last week, but I bought it in january and I think I have the new Brian Fallon album coming soon...bought that before the cover-19 started also though.

 

I’m doing the same, do miss going to record stores but I am surprised that I’m not missing sports as much as I thought I would.

 

Gonna start using Discogs mainly now. A lot of the discs I need are older masters that are a pain to come across in used stores here. So my plan is just buy one decently priced disc a week rather than hoping cheap stuff shows up on eBay auctions. FYI starting with the Sound + Vision Bowie remasters from '90

 

Purchased a few jazz hybrid SACD titles on sale for half price from Acoustic Sounds a couple of days ago. Got a shipping notice yesterday. On their way via FedEx. Should get them in a day or two.

 

Amazon, ebay and Discogs. Though I would have to anyway being I'm currently deployed with military. However, my local store at home is getting up and running online better. So I'll be checking them out to support them during this time.

 

I notice your in Surrey.
Do you not use Rockbox ?
They are a excellent shop but online only at this time.
Whatrecords on line are worth a look.

 

Cds and SACDs from the Classifieds on here, WOW HD and direct from Dutton Vocalion.

 

I bought (ordered) a couple of SACDs from Acoustic Sounds two weeks ago today and they were my last purchase. The week before that, I purchased two Bear Family CD sets directly from Bear Family on ebay. I'm done buying new music until things get sorted out. I wanted to pick up the Goodbye Cream Tour CD set, but I've put any and all new purchases on hold.

SACD
The Best of The James Gang
Santana (1969)

Bear Family
Robert Gordon & Link Wray - The Last Tour AND First Tour: Armadillo World Headquarters Austin, TX Nov. 9, 1977

 

Nowhere. Why risk it?

 

Just non purchase downloads for me. I vacated to the family home in the country. Also put my collection and equipment in storage. I actually have dreamed about it recently... i miss it so much....lol. I only buy physical and locally so im mp3 boy for awhile.

 

Only bills, food and necessities right now. I have at least 20K records and CDs plus streaming, that'll have to do since my hours were cut.

 

My local is closed and has no online component, so Plaid Room and also placed an order through Hi Voltage. Blue Note too. Was buying some stuff through Rough Trade, before they shut down.

 

Buying records? Not buying records right now. Enjoying what I have. I don't forsee myself buying records until this is over, even if it lasts many months. Just a totally frivolous spending of money for someone with thousands of them already.

 

I don't know Rockbox, will check them out!

Thanks!

 

There are only two new releases I'm looking forward to but I imagine they'll be pushed back. The only places I've bought CDs from in a long time are Amazon and Discogs.

 

Same, except classical and media mail.

 

I get most of my music from the Columbia House Record & Tape Club.

11 records for only a dollar!

I finally got the newest KISS album in the mail and it's Amazing!

I think I like it even better than Destroyer!

I read in Circus that a new album called Love Gun will be coming out this summer!

Can't hardly wait!

Trying to help keep my regular indie stores alive by buying online. The local ones deliver by hand! Postage from the others. Spent wayyy too much this last couple of weeks, but if it helps them keep afloat, then it's money well spent. As I type, I'm waiting for the nice chap from Five Rise Records to wave a record bag at me over the fence (Lovely Eggs new one)

 

I've purchased some stuff from bullmoose.com which shipped immediately and I received within 2-4 days.

 

I've stopped going to record shows and most stores - the sores rarely have what I'm looking for at this stage of the game. I buy the cheapest I can online and at places with free shipping. I've not bought from Amazon in many years. I'd say that Bull Moose gets most of my business for new and used music.

 

My regular stores or from Discogs, like usual (Sweden are not that locked down).

 

I'm not buying anything right now because I purchase almost all of my music in person. I'm not sure this is even the right time to be buying online.
