The rules of capitalism state that one is in business to make money but how this place stays in business is beyond me. The employees are rude; they treat customers like they're all shoplifters or idiots. There are staff (males) who will bend your ear for hours with their opinions on politics, or any other subject than why you went there in the first place: to find your favorite music affordably. And you can bet that whatever YOU like or ask about, will be laughed at because their taste is so superior to yours! They will regale you with trivia to show off their vast ""knowledge"" which, after a short while sounds like nothing more than vinyl fetishism. Yuck.\r
I have been shopping there for years and years, and more times than not, leave wondering why I went in when Grimey's is just up the street and they seem to appreciate my business. Whether they actually DO or not, doesnt matter--I still dont feel like a chump for having stopped in. Apparently the owner doesnt care, either, since the same sad sacks have worked there for years but the place has really gone downhill in the past few years. You take your life into your hands when exiting the parking lot. \r
Stick with the Great Escape or Grimey's--they don't hold their merchandise for ransom with exorbitant prices. The movie ""High Fidelity"" could have been modeled after this store and I don't mean that in a good way.\r
They've done one thing right: occasionally have a pretty girl with a smile at the checkout.
Pros: plenty to look at if quantity was everything
Cons: everything else stinks: prices too high, staff is beyond rude, service is nonexistant
