Aquarius Records is always a must-stop for me when I'm in SF. Small, but meticulous in it's curation.
Also, while not a record store, Robotspeak on Haight St is run by some folks that are truly dedicated electronic music fans and they usually have a line on the more niche/underground stuff that's not widely publicized. And if you're into synthesizers and electronic music gear, you'll geek out there for hours!

At the other end of the spectrum, and the other end of Haight, is Ameoba, which has one of everything and often it's in the used bins overstock for $1.
