Nope, not online but yes by post

If you see something on the weekly new release list, then you can tweet/email/ring/insta to ask for it to be reserved, then pay over phone or paypal (I thnk) and get it sent

Spillers has over 15 suppliers and that's without the smaller labels and acts they deal with
