Goodwill Thrift Store.

You never know what you're going to get. Sometimes I think people record their own records and then donate them to the store to get exposure.

Where do you live? My Goodwill is all Englebert Humperdink records with penises drawn on his face.

Same for me. Rarely worth the trip...I only look at the CDs if I happen to be at Goodwill for some other reason - like looking for a Halloween costume.

I like Goodwill because I live in walking distance to it, and since I don't really drive it's great. As opposed to my nearest record store, which is 10 or so miles away and it's got pretty much nothing.

As for the 99% crap thing, that's what's fun about it. Braving the weird and often terrible world of thrift store records is a lot of fun for me. Not to mention, buying foreign CDs not knowing what the heck could be on them = :laughing:

Why not download the music and make copies?

I usually buy from local places like 8raita or levykauppa äx if I cant find what I want from these I order it somewhere else.

Amazon is the bestest.

And the record and tape exchange in Notting Hill. Best bargain basement mine eyes heave seen.

I mostly buy cds from the one remaining music shop in my town. It's an independent shop and the selection is mostly mainstream but it still has a good enough selection. There's also used cd sections in Gamestop and Xtravision and i like to trawl through those regularly.

Other those i try to go to Dublin whenever i can and go to Tower Records, the HMVs stores, or the various independents dotted around the city centre. I can usually find something i'm looking for then.

I usually buy my cds at best buy or fye.

I like to pick my cds up from Graywhale. They have a good selection.
