Record digging tips for Akureyri

How the regulars work Akureyri's bins:

• Ask to play it at Tónabúðin. Good shops have turntables for exactly this. If they won't let you listen, that's information too.
• Check Discogs before big purchases. A quick price check on your phone keeps everyone honest — you and the shop.
• Don't clean records with your shirt. A proper brush costs little and saves grooves. Shirt fibres and spit are how records get ruined.
• Bring a want-list. Write down what you're hunting. Digging is fun, but a list turns luck into strategy.
