Hello all,

I am a soul/disco/boogie funk fan/DJ from london and am soon to go and visit friends in LA. I was wondering if anyone had any advice on record shopping abroad, in particular, any advice on the best/cheapest way to transport records back to the UK would be greatly appreciated. I really want to buy lots of records while I am out there as I guess they will be much cheaper, I just wonder if there is any way to avoid getting stung hard on importing them back.

Any local knowledge on good record stores/thrift stores in LA would also be very useful

Thanks,
Chris
