a top company. usually worth my extra to cash to order out of country from them.
Bigtime, I'm well impressed!
we do love's the Juno
juno is sound, super professional, almost a shame they are so successful as they have such a big slice of the market but its hardly a real complaint is it?
definitely my first choice since the demise of tune inn especially
I've had stuff arrive in less than 24 hours from Juno.
Can't fault anything. Good customer service. They deserve their success.
Couple weeks ago I ordered from them on Wed. and had the records in my hands Fri.
And I live in LA :wot:
aye big up jumo onetime onetime
i've had stuff thats been sent before i even paid for it. beat that.Quote:

Top notch are Juno, very nice to deal with as well.
I just accuired 800 records from their ex stock. Mostly house, if anyone's interested it'll be selling them for 50pence each.Quote:

tune in was good too though. friendly lads, i used to go in fairly regularly. what happened to them?
no. Since when was being successful and efficient something to be lamented? You spent too much time in LS6.Quote:

Personally i think there are some things in life which aren't compatible with your sweeping free market ideals, but are worth savouring. Small local record shops being a prime example.
they won't take postal orders though, but still a good shop.
juno's well good, order before 5pm on a friday & the tunes arrived saturday great!!!!
Theyre being squeezed out of the market because theyre inefficient and slow to respond. Only bad shops are squeezed out of the marjket, or at least ones with a lousy strategy. The Good ones stay open. Tribe Records success was because of Simon ( I think that's his name) He went to nights like cabbage and Riff raff even tho he doesn't dig the music and researched the markets and always had a stock in of stuff that I would buy. He knew his stock like the back of hand and always put the right stuff in front of me. Unlike that other excuse for a record shop in leeds where the guy couldn't be arsed to say hello, didn't know your name, couldn't be arsed ordering in stuff you like to buy and wasn't set up to take switch cards. Lousy website too. He also insisted blasting out tunes while you were trying to listen to stuff on headphones which were usually broken. No surprises he packed up. Good riddance to it.Quote:

There will always be a market for record boutiques in cities. the ones who go under probably deserve to.
The web market is different as its mail order and something where slowness and fck ups are just not tolerated. Having one online that gets you what you want when you want it is something to be celebrated and who cares if it does well. If it starts getting sloppy then thats just an opportunity for someone else in the market who can get shit right.
Banging tunes does pretty well just on vinyl alone because of a well deserved reputation and the fact he has that forum to have his market research on his doorstep and keeps his customers checking the site often.
Slackers be damned. The market will provide. Survival of the fittest ensures we get the best stuff for the best price.
I agree with your ethos that you should support your local record shop but if it aint any good, you aint gonna buy sht records just to keep him in business are you?
i used to order from lots of different shops abroad but since i found juno, i've never looked back. they have a great '8 week' feature, which i just love - perfect for me as i love getting a completely new record box every 2 months. i've had tonnes of packages from them now. records come within 2 days max. PERFECT.

And anyway. Who are you talking about in Leeds?

Youy adapt or die. Its a shame that things sometimes move on when we'd like them to stay put but the point of life and staying vital is adapting to change and accewpting the inevitable.
As I said, I aint gonna support a local record shop that aint moving with me. If you gave enough of a fuk you'd have done more to save it.
Whats that Thompson quote... the Music industry is one where good men die like dogs. there is also a bad side.
Yeah yeah, cool. So, who were you talking about?Quote:

I looove Juno, been ordering my records from them for over 5 years now and they have never once screwed up an order, and the customer service has been great. Can't say the same for the other half doze sites I have ordered from.
I always tried to shop locally in Ottawa and Montreal, but the shop owners weren't always very cooperative and I wouldn't limit my purchases to the 4 new titles they got that week.
Juno Records has been my favourite vinyl store alongside chemical-records. Never had any trouble with my orders! Fast shipping too Norway, 3-5 days max! Top record stores :)
juno are pretty good, but i ain't had all my records in under 2 days and i've spend hunders with them...
last two times ive ordered ive had to re-oreder cuz the records didnt arrive after a month, joke, ansd i live in CorkQuote:
