Hey Guys

Im gonna be in Phili on Sunday for a few hours.

Have a show at the Trocadero at 5pm.

May have an hour or two to kill before hand.

Any good CD stores in the immediate area? Probably wont have time to drive around to find stuff, but anything within relative walking distance, or a real easy car ride?

your help in me diminishing my bank account is appreciated!

I posted a thread on this definitely less than a month ago.

We ended up going to AKA Music, Spaceboy, Repo Records, and Philadelphia Record Exchange.

I was very impressed with the new selection at AKA and Spaceboy. They carried more that I was looking for than any other record store I've been in (except for Amoeba, obviously), and the prices were cheaper. I didn't find much used at either, but it could have just been a slow day.

Philadelphia Record Exchange has a decent selection of used CDs. The prices are a little higher than normal, but the stock is a little rarer overall.

I didn't find anything in Repo Records. I think my girlfriend did. Their prices were pretty good on the used stuff.
