I'm sure in Europe they don't but in Texas they do, at least in Houston and Austin. I've never bought a record at local shop. I would love to support them but they don't have e. Anybody have any badass local shops???

| It sucks here in Los Angeles! :whip: They either don't have it or have limited copies therefore out of stock. Local shops carry a lot of old ty records not even worth buying. House is a different story though. |

| Here in Holland are some good shops as far as I know. There's also a lot of , but you just have to find the good ones :) In the region where I live, there are actually no shops at all, but fortunately in the city where my school is, there are 4 shops at walking distance of each other. 1 sucks, 1 is okay if you like harder stuff, 1 uhm, never been there actually but heard some okay stories and the last one is my favorite, specialized in progressive, they often have some classics I'm looking for, great service, and a good website, I have spent too much money there already :nervous: |

Right...I know what you are saying. Every shop I go to is full of old ty ass used records, or just simply house music. House reminds me of 70's disco, and personally that needs to go. Thats all I hear about around here: "You're a DJ really, what do you spin?" " I spin house, yaayy!" Everyone in Austin is like that!

| the problem with alot of local shops is that when the new stuff comes in they don't put it out until after all the "big" area dj's get a stab at it first, so there when they are done there is usually nothing left and it's gone in a matter of minutes. That is my experience with local shops and therefore I don't support them cause I can't if they don't have what I want. |

| The shops in Bergen, Norway is not so good either. They have a good selection of House, but the trance selection is just depressive :( |

i have "Anonther Level" here in chicago. usually they have very nice stock, and they're never as crowded as some of the stores downtown. (another level is in the suburbs) unfortuantely, for my hard trance loving ass, not much good hard trance has been released lately imo, so i havent found much i liked...but thats not really the stores fault. (another level tries to keep up with new releases, its actully harder to find somethin older)
they also carry some jungle, a good amount of trance, techno,hardcore, house, and hard house.
actully, im suprised i havent spent more cash at that place |

| I live in the Orange County area, so I use to go to Higher Source. Sometimes I would go to Beat Non Stop or DMC Records. I actually like some of the selection that Beat Non Stop has. DMC plain sucks and Higher Source has House music galore! But now I buy online. It's a little more expensive, but I usually get what I want. I find it that the U.S. online record store don't carry a big selection at times also. I always find myself buying from juno or chemcial records which gets expensive. Damm shipping! :D |

What city are you referring to? Eindhoven? Rare Records in Eindhoven is great :)
Personally, where I live we only have one shop, and sometimes there are a few good (techno) records here, but not too much though.. So I mostly buy online too.. |
