How to Shop for Vinyl Records Online (2025): Discogs, Ebay

Summary

Nutrition label

59% Informative

Discogs allows folks to buy, sell, and trade rare and desirable discs from their collections.

Tower Records is a major distributor of virtually every bigger release on the market.

Bandcamp is a great place to search for new music from all over the globe.

Ebay is a good place to buy very rare and expensive records.

Directly From the ArtistsWe've saved the best for last, the best being paying the artists you like directly for their work. Find their website, social media page, or record label and buy your music from the artist directly. It's often the way that the artist makes the most money from their work, and it often comes with personalized notes and other cool items that you'd rarely get from a store. I have at least a few records with personal thank yous and signatures from small artists, which feels really special every time I listen to them!.
