Hard Wax

Great store. Really enjoyed getting to see this store. Loved walking to this place having to go into the building and feeling like your in the wrong spot really made me enjoy it more. The vinyls here are all underground artist, DON'T EXPECT TO FIND MAIN STREAM MUSIC, but I really enjoyed hunting through the vinyls and seeing names I've never read before. Happy hunting!

Went before the pandemic, and loved the experience. I couldn't decide between some stuff but made the best decision thanks to the staff and got two records from locals (my fav ones to date)

Gday. Made an order for 20x records from Hard Wax, Germany on the 17th February, 2024. They arrived in Australia less than two weeks later.
Hard Wax went out of their way to ensure that the records were expertly packed and could survive their journey around the world intact. They don't use crappy packing materials - they only use stiff cardboard boxing that is made for vinyl records. They include extra internal packing materials as well. They wrap the records in tissue paper and separate clear wrap to keep it from moving during transit.
Everything arrives in its store-bought condition. The pricing including shipping is still 25 - 50% cheaper than if you buy it in Australia from any retail store (including supposed discount music sellers.)
The communication was excellent and I was notified via email as to when the parcel was sent out. The payment process is simple and easy to follow. Shipping information is automatically calculated on their website at the time of ordering and you can change your mind before making a payment to add or deduct items from your order.
I am always reluctant to purchase records from USA or UK because the packing is always lousy and the service is lacklustre. They want your business but treat you like a number; whereas dealing with German companies, like Hard Wax, I know that the experience will be friendly, professional, reliable and hassle-free.
Thanks so very much for the fantastic customer service experience. I know where I will be buying hard-to-find records from again that are impossible to acquire in Australia.

Great selection of techno vinyls! Prices could be slightly lower for second hand, but this is balanced due to the overall service! Skip the rest record shops and go there instead if you are looking for proper cuts.

A great record store for Techno and House. If you like Techno records you should visit this shop! ( Not a shop to find old and used records! )
