Click on the search tab above. In the 'Search for' box enter any word or part word or number that is associated with what you are looking for. The more specific you are, the more quickly you will find what you are looking for. eg Entering 'Beatles' would find a listing of all Beatles albums in stock whereas 'Yellow submarine' would only find the much smaller number of Yellow submarine titles. Entering 'Yellow Submarine capitol' would find only listings of that title on the Capitol label and entering 'Capitol 5715' would find only that particular album. Force more or less specific searches by altering the 'Search type'. You can also choose to search only certain categories or to search the entire database. You can even limit the maximum price of items selected.


If you are happy with an item, click on the 'add to cart' button. This will automatically take you to your shopping cart. To continue shopping, click on the 'continue shopping' button or click on the 'checkout' button if you are ready to make your purchase. If you decide you do not want to buy a particular item, you can check the box in the 'select' column on the right and then click 'delete'. This item will be removed from your shopping cart.

On clicking the checkout button, you will be asked to complete your personal details for the purpose of payment processing and delivery. Some fields are obligatory and others optional. You can choose to have your customer details remembered by selecting the appropriate option box. This can speed up future purchases from our site. You will next be asked to choose your preferred payment method. If you wish to buy using a credit card, please choose the PayPal option (preferred) and carry on. If you wish to pay by cheque or other methods, use the Email option and you will be contacted regarding your payment preferences. Whilst we cannot accommodate all methods, we can usually accept cheques drawn on a UK bank, postal orders and other mainstream payment mechanisms.


Shipping charges are calculated automatically and may vary occasionally as postal rates change. Postage of 45s is half that of 12" records and second items go for about half the price of the first. However, the formula does not follow this precisely and the more you buy, the more economical it becomes!
