Reviews
Normally not the type to leave reviews, but stumbled upon this record shop and it’s an absolute shiny gem. I always love buying records in person, but honestly I often find it a struggle. Most record shops I’ve been to either have a limited selection or tend to stock only mainstream artists. So I usually end up shopping online to find the niche artists and rarer albums I love. Which is convenient but loses that personal touch and face to face interaction. But I was pleasantly surprised. This shop has an incredible variety, more than I ever expected, I came across artists I’d never seen stocked anywhere else. It felt like a place that truly catered to music lovers of all kinds. For once I didn’t feel the need to go online as I was getting exactly what I wanted right here. I was lucky enough to be helped by a member of staff called Suki Whom was warm, welcoming and endlessly knowledgeable. She took the time to chat to me, asked about my tastes and proceeded to recommend me various vinyls that were right up my alley, Thank you suki!!!! I ended up leaving with two vinyls, a smile on my face and even a little skip in my step. Will definitely be back in the future for more Gems
I have recently found The DRIFT Record Shop, so it's my first purchase, Tim Burtons The Nightmare Before Christmas (ZOETROPE Edition) Just received it. Very well packaged Travelled from Devon to Manchester Arrived in New Condition Thank you very much The DRIFT Record Shop for fulling my order and getting it to me in mint condition. As Arnie says(I'll be back)
Awesome record store! Great selection and knowledgeable, friendly staff.
I bought a record online from here recently, it showed up damaged (not drift's fault) I sent them an email about it and they got back to me very quickly and politely sorted it out for me within 24 hours. Incredible service, thank you!
I love this record shop. Bought a copy of the new queens of the stone age album!!! Chilled staff and clearly knowledgeable about vinyl. Great little coffee shops locally as well. Totnes just come and visit it's awesome!
