Target Records

[Stefan]

Any clues what happened to Target Records? This came up on their homepage: targetrecords.de has been closed.

I've only had good experiences with Robert in the past. Did they go the same route as MTM Music?

Rob's a great person to deal with, if he's shut the shop then I hope he'll continue selling through ebay.

No, unfortunately he will not. Robert has decided to step out of the CD business - too much work and not enough profit - and to concentrate on his family and day job. He already sold off most of his stock and even part of his personal collection. Sad, but true.

It's sad things have come to this for Rob & Target Records.

Quite a few labels & mail order sites connected to & supporting melodic rock have shut down over the last few years

Sad indeed. In this age of downloading one might wonder when the cd, as a physical media, is gonna be extinct. I'm totally on the cd side of things on this matter.

Yeah, there's no way I'll start paying for a digital form of media. It's ridiculous that convenience is ruling quality.

Very sad to see the end of Target Records. A long time ago I bought quite some CD's from Robert, in the 90's when he used to send his catalogue on paper to each customer. A very honest seller.

Yep, I was saying to my wife just the other day that if we have kids they will never really know what an actual CD store was. And the way it's going, I wonder if they'll even know what an online CD store is / was? Sad to see...

[Swazi]

if we have kids

 

That's the crux of the bisquit, Frank Zappa speaking ... !

What I should be saying is, "if my wife gets her way."

100 % backed.I relly like to have the real deal so you can read the details about the cd. I must say that am a sucker for cd booklets and real cd artwork.

Don't forget back in the days, the cover and inlay of vinyl. The gatefold sleeve was awesome.
