The used stuff is in the same store (on Telegraph). There is some
kind of warehouse junky looking outlet next to Blondie's pizza
that is closed (I think), but the main store is on the corner. If
you go to this Rasputin's be sure to look upstairs.
Also, just a little further down Telegraph is Amoeba, another
large store with new&used stuff.
Rasputin's in Hayward (on Hesperian) also is good (not quite as
large but I think they have a larger used techno selection)
I've never been to Rasputin's in Pleasant Hill.
Finally, down in Fremont (near Newark, near Ardenwood in this
shopping center with Raley's) is Compact Disc Warehouse. Not
really large, but you can listen to the used CDs before you
buy! They have an OK selection, if you go to Hayward Rasputin's
this store isn't too far away.

Just thought I'd include those for anyone who didn't see the original
message. =) If one were to go to all these stores, it would be a
good amount of driving, but hey, it's your trip I guess. =)
BTW, how about some stores actually in SF? I don't go there often
but some places I've been wanting to check out are Streetlight
and Tweekin. Any comments?
That's all! (BTW, sorry to everyone not in or visiting CA)
