618 Records

Been there, keep an eye out for the sign cos they don't have a shopfront and you need to climb up a few floors of stairs to get there. Not the place for trance records.

Juno Records
haven't used these guys but have a pretty massive catalogue and stock just about everything it looks like!
Chemical Records
as above 
Psyshop
great range of psytrance and progressive too, cheap prices for cds and vinyl but shipping to australia can be a bit of a pain 
fast service too as far as i can tell with my one order hehe
alley tunes rocks! found most of my older tek stuff in there. 
Re: Australian Record Shops
Central Station
- had a bit of trance and house back when i bought my decks there last year, but more recently i couldn't find much in terms of trance. not a huge range, but some good tracks here and there, also a $5 or $10 bargain bin if i remember correctly (last time i went was a few months ago)
- 4 or 5 1200's to listen on. and to new-goers, yes - its in that dodgy looking alley, upstairs
R&S
- Funky house, electro, less-than-commercial house, progressive (i think i saw some digweed, perry o neil reworks in there one time) Nice small collection of stuff, friendly staff will recommend tracks you might like. Prices a bit higher than other stores
Don't forget http://www.capitaldj.com.au/
prahran i think, bought Super8 - Alba+Dawn from there, logged details so i can get a bigger discount with more purchases at the store, haven't really been around that area since. Good collection of trance and house - last year. site (when it goes back up) should have the catalog...
and.. Second Spin - theres a store i prahran, store in city has closed down (i think). a few gems in there if you're willing to look through, lots of old techno
