If your into your tunes, spinning that vinyl then this has got to be a good place to get with a good selection. Never used HTF before until i used for the first time, now used three times. I like the fact you can listen to samples before you buy online but more samples i think are needed.

Htfr sent me a email recently regarding an enquiry I made back in 2008!! I left the enquiry in the safe hands of htfr and in all fairness it was a long shot! ..... Well, I've just received my old skool vinyl of a long lost speed garage tune I've wanted for years! And it arrived in loads of proper packaging! Thanks htfr! Bang On!

Won a competition with HTFR on Facebook and received my record very swiftly and with the best packaging i have ever received with a vinyl posted it was in a mailer with 4 cardboard stiffeners which was inside a large jiffy bag which was covered in plastic really wasnt expecting this attention to detail/customer service given that i had won the vinyl despite it being £50+ in value,hats off HTFR highly recommended!! Cheers!

Have been after 1st Base by the Willesden Dodgers for about 25 years and finally decided to dust off the turntable and make my own CD version. The LP was described as very good. I would say the vinyl looks almost mint, better than most of my LPs which I did try to take care of. The cover is slightly worn at the edges and is not isn as good condition as the vinyl but it is probably in good condition perhaps a bit better. The LP arrived I think 3 days after the purchase, although it may have been 2. The packaging seemed appropriate for a vinyl record although I would probably have placed the word fragile on the cardboard. I have now digitised the LP and while I have not split the tracks etc I can confirm that it played with no jumps or scratches. Overall I was very happy with the transaction and I thought the LP was a bargain.

The ordering process was simple and the whole transaction was a pleasure. I received an email straight away confirming my order, and one the next day to let me know the order had been dispatched. Delivery was quicker than expected and the order arrived in excellent condition. Thank you.

I have bought and sold from HTFR and found their service to be faultless.

One of the best vinyl stores out there. I am impressed at the selection available and particularly like that you can add items to wish list and HTFR e-mail you once they do become available as well. I contacted customer services once and they have been extremely helpful as well. Very happy altogether and will certainly be shopping again in the near future. Thanks HTFR!

Excellent service as usual. Haven't purchased any item since new management took over. Always helpful if you ring up with a Q or query. After the loss of Massive Records in Oxford closing down some years ago its good to know you can still lay a finger on your Fav 12". Keep up the good work guys. Matt.

Some companies pay lip service to customer service but not Hard To Find. They mean it when they say that their customers are important to them. Try them for yourself.

Overall very good but certain vinyl availability is restricted and sometimes over priced compared to other sites.
