Such a shame, probably the best music store on the High St, they just opened a store in Maidstone about a month ago

I'd never heard of them until today :/
Pity though, they sound like they were a decent music store.

'tis a shame, Fopp always had a good range of stuff in stock

I only know of Fopp through work - we do all their Universal/Sony/Pinnacle returns. Shame to see any business go under.

Bah, I was planning to go to them either today (bit late now) or tomorrow because I heard they were struggling so I thought I'd have a last look around but nevermind. Bit of a pity really, I wonder what would have happened if they hadn't bought the Music Zone stores.
