I don't think anyone has mentioned Grimwades yet, the 2nd hand shop near St Davids Hospital. They sold 2nd hand 45s for 2/6 each (12.5p). There must have been a DJ supplying them, as many of their 45s were promo copies. I still have dozens of promos like this bought from Grimwades...
I lived not far from there used to alway frequent it in the sixties buying 2nd hand records along with anything all the other second hand shops had on them
My sister sold all my record collection there without telling me! ( obviously she did later on !)
