Where ?

I can't seem to find an online shop with say Zappa's Joe's Garage in it.

I think you might have to go the 2nd hand route

I have started to buy vinyl and as above 2nd hand is hit and miss. I usually go to a few shops in central London for my vinyls

Have a chat on some of the specialist Hi-Fi forum sites. This, for two reasons. First, you're likely for find where active vinyl users are buying from, both new and good used. Second, there's often users who have large and well loved vinyl collections gathering dust. You might pick up some bargains that way too.

Start with Pinkfish and Hifiwigwam

I've bought a few records using http://www.discogs.com/ and never had any problems just find postage is a bit high

I also use http://www.juno.co.uk/

Discogs is ok and ebay if you get off a decent seller that specializes in vinyl and has good feedback

I guess its just a gamble

EDIT: Is this new?

I also use htfr.com although it specialises in Dance music it does have other genres.

Juno only sells new records as per their FAQ http://www.juno.co.uk/help/faq/13

I use http://www.diversevinyl.com/ mostly... Amazon sometimes, http://www.snvinyl.co.uk. once.

Also have high street shop in Leamington Spa, I'm told there's another in Hinckley Leicestershire called Nervous Records, not tried it yet.

I have used Discogs and Vinyl Tap, Amazon gets used quite a bit.
