On the basic metrics alone, the score was 80.9 and the rank 1. The score is now 78.2 and rank 1 (no change). The difference comes from the buying motives: they measure what a buyer asks before deciding.
Black and White Records on yli 35-vuotias äänilevyjen erikoisliike Helsingin Hakaniemessä ja sillä on Suomen laajin käytettyjen levyjen kokoelma. Verkkokauppa erottuu poikkeuksellisen läpinäkyvällä kuntoluokituksella: MINT, EX, VG ja G on selitetty tarkasti ja luokitusmerkinnät avattu. Toimituskulut on taulukoitu, yli 100 euron tilaukset ovat postikuluitta ja 14 vuorokauden peruutusoikeus on kerrottu. Kehitettävää jää oman Y-tunnuksen näkyvyydessä.
