For me Discogs, Ebay, Exchange and I go in Black Market Records because I work next to it.

I dont buy much new music tho. Oldskool is still where its at form me. Dubstep has gone down hill big time.
Don’t worry about people stealing an idea. If it’s original, you will have to ram it down their throats.

Last I heard all serious record buyers were avoiding this shop because they were caught out scamming customers.

Not many of you on here would know about it tho I guess. They were making dodgy booglegs of rare records and selling them at £50+ prices. They even made up so called rare records that did not even exist and were selling them at top dollar.

I don't think there are many people on here who are into "Brother From Another Planet".

Don't buy any now I've gone digital but used to go Eastern Bloc in Manchester. Quality shop and Mark Turner works behind the counter. He's a wicked DJ and top bloke.

Was a massive thread about them and the scams they had been doing too customers on Discogs.com. Just did a quick search but could not find it. Was couple of years ago.

I dont know but I am sure google does. I would hate to be out of work or on minimum income living in London in the current climate thats for sure.

I have shopped around many vinyl shops all around the uk, for example, BM (London), Chemical recs (Bristol), Reform (Exeter), and many more london ones. But the best shop i have had the pleasure to shop at is Drop records in Bath (10 mins from bristol) the guy adam who own the shop knows his shit inside and out! always friendly, and knows what you want to listen to as you walk thru the door!

Large ups Drop Records! - http://www.droprecords.co.uk/

Did not hear about this with Skream but they have been busted doing it loads with other artists. They were charging like double the price for shit presses of bootlegs.
