I've gotta check out release... their site looks awesome.
I guess I'm lucky because I can actually go into the store (since it's downtown toronto). I just haven't had a chance yet.
Do they have a lot of trance? It seems to be more progressive...

They seem to get a good amount of trance...Not an insane amount, but still quite a lot.

hey guys,
jerome from release here.
just surfing and found this thread so i thought id add my point of view to it.
firstly, id like to say thanks for the kind words & for the criticism (which always helps us grow as a business).
id like to make a few points though about our prices & explain why sometimes they are higher than other shops.
the main & obvious reason is the promos. i think most people tend to be under the assumption that these fall on our laps. since we are not a uk shop (where most of our promos often come from), we have to do loads of work & spend extra cash on these in record prices, special shipping & tons of phone calls. believe me, its very hard work week in, week out. if they were so easy to obtain, everyone would have them.
we also, only charge more for the promos. we essentially give u the option. if u want the promo some times up to 2 months b4 the full release, this is the price (which is usually only a couple of bucks extra). if u arent bothered with the promo, the finished full release will be available at the same price as the other shops.
hope this helps. but im glad that i have the chance to hear both points of views from happy & unhappy customers. as i said, we always listen to it & try to apply it whenever we can to both the site and shop(s).

And I think everyone makes those same mistakes, don't feel bad. That reminds me, I forgot to ask you what it's like ordering from overseas... I love juno, but I've been hesitant to order from them. How much is shipping/taxes/ etc. What do you end up paying for an order of x vinyls?
Shit.............................. I hope not. I have 70 bucks in gift certificates I got at Christmas that I've been saving  |
Yup, they shut down. I emailed them cuz I wanted to drop off a demo cd, and its confirmed.
With shipping, its not worth it if you only get 1 or 2 records, but around 5 records or so, it can be $16 - $20 a record from juno, depending on which ones you buy. which is pretty much the same price here incl. taxes.

true, your store does stock alot of fresh titles that can't be found anywhere else in toronto. one of my favorite records is a white label promo from your store.  I'd definately shop there more often if i was more of a progressive fan though.
