    unfortunately there wasn't really any passing trade in little portland street. even people who knew where we were struggled to find us in the basement. what's changed after 10 years is that our lease is up and we don't want to commit to another 10 years in oxford circus. darnley road is much closer to home for us and being in the same building as Stay Up, Routemaster & Curvepusher makes sense as we sell loads of their stuff.
    and after 10 years we've got a window and daylight.

    we're definitely not a casualty of any supposed scene meltdown infact the move has put us into a much stronger position.

    hopefully see you in hackney soon...

    cool fair enough - yeah the other shop was a bit tough to find....

    I imagine the online sales are ramping up these days too....so that doesn't matter where you are based either..
