I use these for new stuff
Secondhand
Ebay - obviously.
Discogs - watch the prices though. Some people on there overprice loads. Equally you can pick up a lot of stuff for very low prices. And check shipping rates from the sellers before you buy.
AVOID HARD TO FIND RECORDS (HTFR.COM) LIKE A LARGE MAN WEARING A T-SHIRT MARKED WITH 'SEXY' HOLDING A DILDO IN A DARKENED ALLEY

It's not just him having bad experiences with HTFR.. they're commonly known for selling fake whitelabel vinyls of unreleased tracks made from bad quality mp3s (cut from DJ sets, fanmade reconstructions,..)

Yep. Also sold me a copy of Hi Fi Bugs - Lydian & the dinosaur that surprisingly was genuine but unfortunately the vinyl sleeve was full of sand......
I shit you not.
I complained and they replaced it with one that had a massive scratch in the breakdown.
Other issues I had with HTFR before I gave up on them totally:-
-Records being sent in plain sleeves when they were released with production sleeves - not stated on website.
-Sending scratched records
-Sending records that are clearly second hand that were sold as new
-And of course the ever popular dodgy MP3 whitelabel.
Cnuts the lot of them........
