I live in Reading, but visit Basingstoke for a change. Yesterday 20.01.2026. I visited the store and decided to purchase a record. I took it to the till and paid for it. The young lady serving turned the screen around, so I could put my e-mail address in for the receipt to be emailed to me. As I had finished typing it in. The till crashed.
So young lady who didn't have to went onto the computer system and managed to find my purchase and got my receipt and printed it off.
So credit to her for excellent customer service and representing your company. I believe her name is Molly. That is why I gave 5* for this review.

Amazing experience when purchasing my record player! The assistant George went above and beyond in helping me find what I was looking for and making sure that I had everything I needed with my record player for proper care and set-up.
Further to this he also helped me with finding a record I have been craving to listen to (Linkin park - meteora special splatter vinyl).
Would highly recommend this store
