Discogs had some reasonably priced options but one seller sold the album the day I placed my order and another said he can't find the CD. 

I've used Discogs once successfully, which was to get a copy of Spectral Lore's Sentinel album, but I turn to the site as a last resort personally. It seems like there are less regulations for sellers and less protection for buyers if something does go wrong, with many stating that there won't be refunds if a package doesn't arrive unless you pay a huge registered shipping charge up front. Which is actually illegal but Discogs don't seem to police it like ebay, so some of those low price rare items on sale may be a case of too good to be true. Though I think PayPal would have your back if a package never arrived, because the seller would have to prove delivery regardless of what terms were laid down. Point is, you may end up paying out for registered shipping just to get a seller to release the item to you. 

I'm currently hunting for an original press of Wyrd's Vargtimmen Part 1. I want the original because the reissue has shit artwork. The discogs prices are not far apart for each version, but the sellers are doing as I state above: insisting on buyer paying registered shipping otherwise no sale/loss of refund option.

When it comes to finding new stuff I actually miss the days of when there were smaller independent record shops around that you didn't know what you might find in. Don't know what the situation with those is like in other countries but here in the UK they've long been a dying breed. We're actually lucky if a town even as a HMV now and their metal sections aren't exactly great unless you want something from a major band or is very new (and maybe even not then).

Closest I can get to the small feeling as looking through a nice little music shop is browsing ebay to see what's on auction. I often put small impulsive bids on things just in case I can score a bargain, but more often that not I lose out in the last few seconds. Or if I have put a higher bid in others bid the stuff up to almost new price.

I think I'm going to re-order mine as well. Amazon keeps pushing back the date I'm supposed to receive it. When I ordered it they assured me that I'd have it by June 5th, only for that to be postponed on June 4th. Still don't have it.

Those are the dates they gave me too...except the CD version wasn't even released until June 16th anywhere in the world. But it's been a week since then and they still show no sign of getting them in stock anytime soon. 

All Your Music has many copies in stock though: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Kentucky-Panopticon-CD-New/382138378410?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

It's a never ending quest discovering new music and there's far too much choice out there to know it all. I always used to buy full discographies of bands I liked, even albums that were weak just for completeness, but these days I'm more selective and don't automatically buy every new album apart from a handful of bands. Despite having a collection of around 4000 albums, a lot of it extreme metal, I'm still always discovering new stuff and find Spotify and Youtube useful to hear before I buy. If i like something I add it my Amazon wishlist which grows faster than I can afford to buy. I prioritise and there's stuff on there that's been on for years that I'll never probably buy as there's always something i want more. A lottery win would be helpful.

I'm only approaching the 800 mark and people already tell me I have too much. This is something someone who isn't a serious music fan can never understand.

Music stores in general are a dying breed in the US as well but here in the SF Bay Area where money is plentiful from the tech boom there are still lots of small indy stores and with the recent revival of vinyl in previous years has meant some are doing quite well. We also have two chains called Amoeba and Rasputin scattered about. They are great because they have tons of used. The metal sections are quite large and turnover is quick. If i dare even step foot in one i cannot refrain from dropping 100USD$ at least. Of course it's never been easiier to shop online which is even more dangerous!!!

This one was excellent, though very raw. Unfortunately track 4 is marred by a glitch where the audio cuts out briefly. I thought it was my copy but it glitches in the exact same place on a YouTube upload too.

Just finished what's available in Early Access for The Cursed Forest. Loved what's available so far.

This vocal mixing is going to take some serious getting used to; The growls almost sound like background noise, they're that low in the mix. Otherwise, some very interesting musical passages and it seems great aside from the odd mixing.
