If you are UK based then my advice would be to stick with Chemical Records (www.chemical-records.co.uk) or Above The Sky (www.abovethesky.com).

Both are UK based and will have your music delivered within a few days. Also both companies have a decent selection that is reasonably priced.

I haven't had any trouble with these companies - they both provide a very speedy and professional service.

Wish me luck, everybody. I'm ordering a record from HTFR...

Darren Tate vs M Koglin - Now is the time (with Darren Tate vs Jono Grant - Let the light shine in on the flipside). They were the only place that had it. I wrote them an email and he assures me the this vinyl is in stock.

Everybody, please bow down to your respectful God and pray.

i ordered he john johnson - city ep from them before! one of the records was warped, maybe something to do with delivery i dont know? but i doubt it as it was in one of them cardboard packs! and the other vinyl with Hong Kong on it, had the buenos aires label over the top of the hong kong track! could be the fault of the people that pressed the vinyl! i dont know but be carefull if you do order with them!


Posted by Narcissus on Nov-19-2002 03:46:

Yeah...if you decide to buy from them don't put any hope in to it. I've just had my heart broken by them.


Posted by DJ Dowlz on Nov-20-2002 00:03:

Well, contradictory to what everyone here has said, I was quite happy with HTFR. It was the only place that had Darren Tate vs Jono Grant - Let the light shine in. Shipment arrived quickly and the record wasn't warped or anything like that. I only have a cheap record player at the moment, so I can't fully assess it's quality, but it sounds normal to me. Doesn't sound as though it's a bootleg. (The record's in a black sleeve and has a red label with white lettering)

So, basically, if you desperately need a record, you can use them. Just don't get your hopes up.

best online record shop in uk is http://www.tuneinn.com . tried and tested. order thursday night. arrive saturday morning. no worries

A Record store worse than HTFR !

www.dmf.co.uk ! They list all the stock the don't have. Claimed to be one of the world's best on-line record store.. they don't reply e-mails or their customer enquiry forms. I've ordered for 6 records including binary finary - 2000 and Oakenfold - prophet 1. The prices were listed 9 and 6 pounds respectively. Just received the package after 3 weeks of ordering and i've received oakenfold - prophet 1 in ok condition but they charged me 15 quids for it!!! And received binary finary 1999 on positiva which they charged me 9 quids!!! The shipping charges just topped it all off. All I know I'm not paying them anything!!!


Posted by YellowG555 on Dec-20-2002 09:09:

Yeah, I ordered a bunch of stuff from them including PVD - Tell me Why. I got my order 3 weeks later with just Tell Me Why...but instead of the proper 2 discs, it only had one of them and a random vinyl thrown in there!!! They suck ass!! Do NOT order from that place. Can one of you guys in England go over there and kick their ass for me?!


Posted by 24K on Dec-20-2002 12:27:

No shit... this place is a fukcing joke. They suppopsedly had James Holden- Nothing and the AYU 'M' EP for 6 pounds,,, ya rite. I knew it was to good to be true.


Posted by Fundamental on Dec-20-2002 15:49:

Thanks for pointing this out guys...

It's annoying to hear of companies doing this crap.


Posted by Technaut on Dec-20-2002 16:05:

dmf have always been shite


Posted by DJ Mikey Mike on Dec-20-2002 16:35:

they really are a fukin disgrace. I ordered Airwave Mix of Fixation. I thought it was to good to be true, but figured if it werent in stock then they just wouldnt charge my card so all is good. But the fucks sent me the record on HOOJ which doesnt hav the airwave mix. So ive spent £10 on a vinyl i could quite easily get for like £4, and is completely shite compared to Airwaves Mix. Ive returned the vinyl which cost me another £2 in shipping and hav demanded they either give me a full refund or ship me out the correct vinyl. If i dont get either of these then i'll go down to Birmingham and petrol bomb there fucking shop..

Oh yea, X-hale also hasnt received his order yet and we ordered on the same day.

Luke hasnt received his Ayu EP either. Why do they let u purchase these vinyls when they no full well there not in stock. I dont usually use this word but they are ****s. Fuck em. Dont give em ur businesss. And Luke get this stickified


Posted by Narcissus on Dec-20-2002 17:56:

And to be more precised the binary finary 1999 they sent me was badly worn out... we can get a brand new one from places like toys R us for 2 quids with a free lollipop and they charged me 9 quids... mate .. i wish i knew Bin Laden!!

aye i no the one. 2000 is on Orbit and has the amazing remix by Dumonde as well as Gouryellas. The one positive just has Gouryella and can be got well cheap at HMV. Mustve been a pain in the ass when it arrived at ur house and u get all excited coz u think uve got the real deal and then bollox! wrong order. grrrrrrr


Posted by Martin McG on Dec-20-2002 21:58:

yeah i orfered from there too! wouldnt do it again though! mines is on back order


Posted by Luke Terry on Dec-20-2002 22:03:

Cool

yea aint got M yet, and chemical are just as fucking bad imo now, juno are the only decent place left.

i ordered about 50 quids worth of tunes including theme from banginglobe, which i got and is in pretty crap condition with loads of surface scratches/marks and had loads of finger prints and they will refund me the vinyl price 5.50 if they get it and it plays in "ok" condition and they will give me another 2 quid for postage if it doesn't play ok, what fucking wankers.


Posted by Cosmic Realm on Dec-21-2002 00:46:

well i havnt had any problems with chemical-records like i just orderd a shipment of 17 and i got that in about 2 weeks and then i orderd another shipment of 7 and that come in about 1 week. But the first oder of 17 was about 4 weeks ago and then the other order was about 1 week ago cuz i just got em in like on tues . but havnt had any problems with them. But i would have to say i am tired of see these forums with people bitchin about a store i think soemthin should be done about this. They should be sued or something . We can not let this happen to anyone else its not fare and its very frustrating **sp**

hehe the same place i originally got mine. Orbit vinyls are really nice and thick . Nice to work with


Posted by Technaut on Dec-21-2002 12:51:

Well tbh I dont think this should be a sticky slating HTFR.

I've ordered loads of records from them and never had a problem, i've phoned the store place an order and they arrived in mint condition same as with Juno.

I've also used thier website, records also came in mint condition.

They aint as fast at sending the records as Juno, they seem to take one day longer to get them to me. But Replay Tune Inn, Chems all take one day longer than Juno for me. So i class HTFR in the same league as them, with Juno being out front, Juno always have the most records that I want so I use them most to save on delivery charge.

In conclusion lol... I see fuck all wrong with HTFR and I've spoke to other people that feel the same way. So I dont think this should be a sticky as its gonna put people off using a store which they could get perfectly good records from.

seasons greetings.
