bit cheeky prices considering it's an actual shop and not a private seller.

Theres plenty more where that came from... and thats fucked... seriously... go fuck yourself... literally never buying anything from this store ever again...
There's bigger labels in the world than DMZ, Tempa and Big Apple, and if they found out there were SHOPS retailing their "rare" releases at such high costs im sure it wouldnt go unnoticed. Sickening... im losing faith in this whole thing one second at a time... stupid stnuc.

what do you want them to do? so they've got a copy of dubsessions they don't need/want, should they just sell it for £5.99 on principle? they're all fucking valuable pieces of vinyl, ownership of which a lot of people would see as a privilege worth paying serious money for.
lets face it, any newcomers to dubstep aren't going to fork out £100 for DMZ002, or even £20 for an old big apple release - they're going to download a shitty rip of it off bittorrent.
if vinyl purists and collectors want to pay those prices for some of the classic records the scene has produced, i reckon that's fine. and if in the process the money can go towards supporting a shop selling and promoting vinyl, then that's better than it just changing hands via discogs or ebay.

they got some old bits in. The prices maybe high, but its a dozen rare records that have the stupid prices. Its hard for record shops these days. The shop has supported grime, dubstep and funky from day. Dont let afew highly priced records put you off.

i guess whats been said is probably true... i was just shocked to see a shop retailing a 12" for £99.00.
Im interested to find out if they were just holding on to these from day or if they found a couple of old boxes or what... either way, as mentioned above... there are people that will buy these and be really happy with the purchase.
kind of take back my words earlier... still dont think its right.

they are getting a new and improved website.
So they are putting out bit that have been sold to them from peoples collections and old second hand vinly that been in the shop for ages. Gives people the chance to get there hands of on some good stuff for a decent price.

a retailer selling overpriced second-hand vinyl without clearly marking them as such would be even worse.
