Great article from The Guardian with Gilles on record shopping. I must say, though it is a great excuse to go out and actually buy something (an experience not savoured these days) - and a day for me personally to save my pennies for, I do echo Gilles' sentiment that it's changed the game a bit in terms of pressing records and valuation of records - not only starting to muscle out the little guy, but it kind of takes the fun out of digging.
