Maybe you misread Tom's post. He said Amoeba and Rasputin were the place to
get a "great used selection". He's absolutely right on that. And the new
selection at Amoeba is getting better and better thanks to Peter's diligent
work. Rasputin on the other hand is seriously flailing. I had to laugh when
someone mentioned that the "logical progression" 2CD was a steal at $18.
Amoeba had _3_ used copies for $10.95 a piece. (That's $9.85 if you pick
them up on Thursday night!) Hell, even Rasputin had a mispriced new copy of
the Chimera CD for $12!
Sure, Mod Lang gets them fast and furious, but the prices... If you're
looking for vinyl, though, this is the only place to be in Berkeley.
I could go on, suffice to say that I own more CDs with an Amoeba sticker on
them then any other store.
