— For an industry we love · For record shops
Discogs brings discovery.
Your webshop builds the relationship.
Better margins, no marketplace fees, direct access to your own community — all in a branded experience that actually feels like your store.
One catalogue,
every channel.
A custom Shopify build is the core. Add the Discogs sync to compound your reach — list once, sell anywhere, with stock and prices always in lockstep.
Shopify, tailored for vinyl.
A storefront built around how crate-diggers actually browse — genre filters, sleeve-first layouts, fast search, and a checkout that doesn't fight you on a Saturday afternoon. Built whether your catalogue lives anywhere yet or not.
Custom theme matched to your brand identity
Genre, label, condition & format filtering
Local pickup, EU shipping & wholesale rules
Shopify POS-ready for behind the counter
SEO foundations + Google Analytics 4 audit
Discogs ↔ Shopify, automatic.
Already listing on Discogs? Keep doing it. The moment something moves, your webshop updates — no duplicate work, no double-selling. Not on Discogs? Skip this entirely; your shop works perfectly without it.
Bidirectional inventory: list once, sell anywhere
Automatic stock, price & condition updates
Sleeve scans & metadata pulled from Discogs
Saves the typical store €1,000s in Discogs fees
Have a physical shop too? Plug Shopify POS into the same setup. Whatever you sell at the till updates the webshop's stock count instantly — same customers, same inventory, one source of truth. Optional, and easy to add any time after launch.

Which situation describes you?
Every record shop comes to us from a different place. Find the one that sounds like yours — chances are, we've done it before.
SITUATION 1
“I need a new online store.”
You don't have an ecommerce website yet and want to start selling records online with Shopify — built properly, from the ground up.
WE BUILD FROM SCRATCHSITUATION 2
“I sell on Discogs and want a real webshop.”
You already manage your inventory through Discogs and want a modern Shopify store connected to your Discogs catalog — your reach and your own storefront, in sync.
WE CONNECT DISCOGS & SHOPIFYSITUATION 3
“My Shopify store needs an upgrade.”
You already have a Shopify store, but it looks outdated, performs poorly, or no longer reflects your brand. You know it could be doing more.
REDESIGN SHOPIFY STORESSITUATION 4
“I want to move to Shopify.”
Your store currently runs on WooCommerce, WordPress, Lightspeed, Wix, Squarespace or another platform, and you want to migrate to Shopify without losing what you've built.
WE HANDLE THE MIGRATION
Who's behind it.
Record Store Design is a label by PRYMAL Digital — the digital arm of PRYMAL World. I'm a DJ and an ecommerce expert who directs every project. The work funds the events and DJ sets we run, so I know vinyl from both sides of the counter.
A small remote team of ecommerce specialists, with AI helping us stay fast where it makes sense. Senior-level work at a fair fixed fee — the craft a record shop's webshop deserves.

Dear Vinyl
DearVinyl.com is a webshop offering a selection of over 10,000 vinyl records — both new and second-hand.
An audit revealed inaccurate data in Google Analytics and significant opportunities for optimization.
To address this, we implemented a new Shopify theme and carried out several SEO improvements.
During the first weekend after launch, the store already saw a 120% increase in revenue.

Vinylscan
VinylScan had their entire collection listed on Discogs for years.
To save thousands of euros annually, they wanted to make their records available through their own webshop as well.
We built a custom webshop and synchronized it with Discogs, ensuring their collection stays automatically up to date.
Now, they can grow their own customer base, communicate directly with buyers, and run targeted promotions.

Writing about vinyl & ecommerce.
Things shop
owners ask.
-
Discogs is one of the best reach engines in vinyl — global buyers, no marketing spend, ready to purchase. We don't replace that; we build the other half. Your webshop becomes your brand home, while the sync keeps stock and prices identical across both. List once, sell on either.
-
Your webshop still works — it becomes your standalone brand home from day one. We'll import your catalogue however it lives (spreadsheets, point-of-sale exports, sleeve photos), and Discogs stays available as a growth channel you can plug in whenever you're ready.
-
Pricing depends on catalogue size and brand work involved. We'll send a clear, fixed-fee proposal after the discovery call — no surprises,
-
Most shops are live in 4 to 6 weeks, depending on catalogue size and brand readiness. We'll give you a clear timeline after the discovery call.
-
We migrate carefully — preserving URLs where possible, setting up redirects, and auditing Google Analytics to make sure you don't lose ranking or returning visitors.
-
Yes. Many of our shop clients keep us on a retainer for ads, content and SEO. Optional — never required to keep the sync running.
-
Yes — Shopify POS plugs straight into the same shop we build for you. Whatever you sell at the counter updates the same stock count instantly, so online and in-store stay in lockstep. We don't bundle it by default; ask us about it on the call if you'd like it set up.
