Jez Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 It seems that Loud 1 mail order has ceased trading.A sad time !!!!! Tough times indeed. I used to buy loads of stuff from Gez, but over the last few years, he hasn't kept his prices competitive enough with everyone else, sometimes even nearly double the price on certain titles. A real shame - he's not the first and certainly won't be the last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Howdy Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 According to their website, they will be back soon and have a link to a PDF file catalogue and say to place orders via email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rockposer Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I used to deal with them til me & Gez had a slight disagreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shamus Posted July 2, 2010 Report Share Posted July 2, 2010 I remember buying my Shark Island Law of the Order cd from Loud 1 long after it was out of print. I was absolutely elated to have found it brand new! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bangerdave Posted July 3, 2010 Report Share Posted July 3, 2010 It's very sad day when one of your fav cd stores call's it a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Posted July 5, 2010 Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Yeah, I got this msg too. Considering there was no closing down sale or anything, I'd be very surprised if he didn't open up some sort of site/catalogue to sell everything I assume he has left over. I only ever bought the Aviator CD from him (thanks to Ian's guidance) but stayed on the mailing list. And like Jez says, always looked a little expensive to me.

Robtyketto Posted July 21, 2010 Report Share Posted July 21, 2010 I got into rock music in 94/95 and it was amazing time to find all rare cds in bargain bins around the UK. There was also specialist hard rock cd shops in my local town, sadly now gone. Sadly times changed and as this music is very much an acquired taste and where you can buy any commercial album in UK supermarkets roughly 1/2 the price of that for a melodic rock cd. I'm stuck in the 2nd hand market til my financial situation changes or rare occurrences like when I got vain 'No more strangers' as was worried it would be sold out and become a rarity. On a Loud 1 note I ordered a few cds way back in the 90's and is very close to where I live! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
