Where to buy vinyls online


Finding the right online store to buy vinyl is always tricky. There are so many websites that sell them. I have listed a couple below that are certainly good starting points. 

If your are in search of great dance, techno or house music, Juno Records is a great place to start. Juno Records is based out of the United Kingdom. They have a great staff recommendations section that will help you find the latest and coolest dance music. You can also follow them on Twitter

If you are in search of rare and expensive vinyls, Victor Kiswell is a great choice. The site specializes in anything from "Afro", "Sitar Bangers", "Electro Cosmic", "Pop Jerks" and many more. 



EBay is also a great place to check out vinyls. It is a good starting point for checking out prices if you are in the market to either buy or sell. 
Sellers are also taking advantage of eBay and are creating their own online stores. Click here for a good example. 

Finally, if you are fond of a particular record label, you might just want to go directly to them. DFA Records in New York City is a great example. They have bands such as LCD Soundsystem, Hot Chip and many other international acts. The label has their own online store and you can normally some great, rare vinyls that you would not normally find in a store. DFA also has a Twitter account, which gives updates about new releases.



These are only but a few sites. But they should be good starting points. The best way to find what you are looking for is to know what you are looking for. Be specific. Certain sites cater to certain genres and if you find the right site you should not have any trouble finding what you want.
