I rarely buy a big selling cd. I am looking for the hard to find items and those can't be found at Best Buy and such. What few cds I buy, I get on Amazon or ebay. I remember years ago browsing through tons of stuff at some larger cd retailers. Oh well...

You know what Dude, I will keep that in mind. Thanks. I don't buy many and what few I buy are available at Amazon or ebay. I have paid funny money a few times. Does Amoeba have old vinyl albums or are they cd only?

They might even have some 78s and 45s ... not sure.

They carry plenty of vinyl and cds

Someone has just asked me for my vinyl records - I have about 50 in storage. I'm sure they are all great stuff - I will let you know and you can grab what you like.

Never get rid of guns, ammo or vinyl.
