Dear friends, GeCoMusic.com needs your help.

If you regularly use the web app, you already know why I created it and the vision behind it.

I want to keep this platform completely free for everyone. However, maintaining and running the infrastructure comes with real costs. That's why I’ve opened a Patreon account where you can help the platform survive and grow.

No special badges, paywalls, or elite treatments will be reserved for supporters. All users — whether you are a store owner or a collector — will always enjoy the exact same experience. The only thing you'll get in return is my endless gratitude for keeping this space independent.

Please visit my Patreon page if you'd like to help make this little corner of the web special for collectors. Plenty of new features dedicated to our local vinyl pushers are already on the way — so stay tuned!

Thanks for reading, Ciao!
