Record digging tips for Belo Horizonte

How the regulars work Belo Horizonte's bins:

• Bring a want-list at Discoplay. Write down what you're hunting. Digging is fun, but a list turns luck into strategy.
• Visit on restock days. Shops process collections on rhythms. Ask when new used stock hits the floor and time your visits.
• Learn your labels. Certain labels mean certain quality. A quick education in the labels of your favourite genres pays off fast.
• Check Discogs before big purchases. A quick price check on your phone keeps everyone honest — you and the shop.

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around Belo Horizonte — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new record store in Belo Horizonte can take a while to appear. The 1 above are only as current as the community map. A record store that's shut, or a new one nobody's added yet, gets fixed with a single OpenStreetMap edit.

We don't list prices or stock — both change by the day. What we list is the where: real shops, verified by real mappers.

If you run one of the 1 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
