Vinyl remains my go to format, so have never stopped buying.
My first port of call is usually my local record shop in Cambridge - Lost in vinyl.
Vinyl is expensive these days, so I'm not as prolific as I was.
I also use Juno as well as artist's own sites.
If you do your research, Discogs is great but it can sometimes be tricky to identify the copy you want.
Likewise with ebay. Research the seller and check feedback.
I have used amazon, but try to limit what I buy there. It's generally cheaper, but I'd rather spend a little extra in an indie store.
I have been an avid crate digger in the past, but not so much now.
If you're buying second hand, I would strongly urge you to buy a decent record cleaner too.
A year later and sad to report that due to ill health of the owner, the most excellent Lost in vinyl closed it's doors on December 23rd.
An amazing indie shop and will be much missed by it's loyal customers,
