Questions

Will it only find the exact pressing I want?
Not always. Reissues can show up too, but the seller’s description is in every alert.
How quickly will I hear about a record?
Every shop is checked daily, and we only alert you about listings still for sale.
Do I have to live in Japan?
No. The alerts work anywhere, but the shops sell in Japan: some ship abroad or sell on Discogs, others you’ll visit on your next trip.
Do you get my Discogs password?
No. You log in on Discogs and Hori can only read your wantlist.
Is it free?
Yes, during early access.
