I'm a new record collector and I'm trying to get all of Taylor Swift's albums! I live in the…read moreUnited States and there is a local record store that I like, but they never have three of her earlier albums. I tried to buy them online, but the prices are outrageous/way over retail. I think I found out about Vinyl Tap because they sell through Amazon, although I ordered directly from their website (vinyltap.co.uk). I loved the fact that they are a small, independent record shop with a brick and mortar store in the UK. I think Vinyl Tap's website is easy to use and they had the three albums I needed. There is a button on their website where you can change the currency and they ship internationally. I thought the prices were incredibly fair and the shipping costs weren't bad! After I placed the order, it took about three weeks to arrive (I picked the slowest option). The records were packaged well and arrived in perfect condition. They were shrink wrapped and the store put an extra outer record sleeve on each one. They also included a printout of the other Taylor Swift albums they have. I thought that was so cool. I am very happy with my purchase and I look forward to buying more records from Vinyl Tap.
