Haven't really bothered with for a few years. They seemed to stop getting the interesting Imports in, the back catalogues options got downsized and the prices...just nuts. Most FRONTIERS releases are about £15/16..JSS's double CD release was £19! Considering on-line prices were about £8-10, its no wonder people like us were using the internet store or other retailers.
It will be a shame if the name/store does go because of its history, but the big record shop days are over. I also really miss some of the stores that specialised..you could walk in and see hundreds of imports etc. There is virtually nowhere left!
