Are there any current users of the website Syn-Phonic? It looks very good and seems to have a lot of incredible albums, but I'd just like to know if it is secure, have you recieved your albums, were they in "good shape"?
Thanks. ------------- Les mains, les pieds balancés Sur tant de mers, tant de planchers, Un marin mort, Il dormira - Paul Éluard |

Greg Walker, gives very good service, he's reliable and has fast service and has a vast knowledge of the scene. In some cases he even ships my items before I send my paypal payment. I'm a satisfied customer and highly recommend him. He also has issued some prog albums on his own label - Yezda Urfa, Mirthrandir etc. I even maintain a thread in the Prog Vendors section of updates from his website.
The only thing I would caution is to know that there are bootlegs among the cd's in his catalogue, like those he states from from TACHIKA and the likes. But these are always marked in the catalogue and you can always ask him, in case you're not sure and he'll tell you. ------------- http://hangingsounds.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow - Hanging Sounds http://www.progarchives.com/ProgRockShopping.asp" rel="nofollow - PA Index of prog music vendors |

Thanks.
Looks like he has a great catalogue, even some albums that I thought were out of sale, discontinued or never reissued.
Looks like I'm going to burn some money  ------------- Les mains, les pieds balancés Sur tant de mers, tant de planchers, Un marin mort, Il dormira - Paul Éluard |

I know! I went to his website once a long time ago. Looking at it now it makes me almost wish I hadn't bought beer this week.  Almost!  ------------- https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays" rel="nofollow - https://epignosis.bandcamp.com/album/a-month-of-sundays |

Oh and by the way, since you're in Canada, be aware of this: If you prefer to have cd's sent without cases to save on postage/customs charges then divide postage rates in half. Let him know you don't need the Jewel cases and it cuts down the shipping internationally. It saved me money when I was ordering cd's back when I lived in Israel. For other online vendors, check out the first link in my signature - it's a PA page with links to several, including Greg's. ------------- http://hangingsounds.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow - Hanging Sounds http://www.progarchives.com/ProgRockShopping.asp" rel="nofollow - PA Index of prog music vendors |

That made me laugh!
What's a "Jewel Case"?
Has anybody ordered LP's also. A LP is fragile and I'm afraid it might break during its shipping. ------------- Les mains, les pieds balancés Sur tant de mers, tant de planchers, Un marin mort, Il dormira - Paul Éluard |

| Greg is great! I try to buy multiple CDs when I buy from him to get a break on postage. He's very vreasonable and I can honestly say I've never had trouble, and I've bought from him alot. |
