I only had time to look in the children's section…read morewhich was huge and decently organized by categories such as (sensory/cause and effect, holidays, popular authors, language, potty training, family). You could spend a good chunk of time browsing through the bins and shelves. It is great that they have a train table in the kids area so they kids can play while you browse the books. I was searching for Lunar New Year books, but couldn't find any. They had a bin for the big holidays like Christmas, Halloween, Easter and a general holiday bin for smaller holidays. The employees were nice and can system search by author/title, but they couldn't do a search by general topic/genre.

The Used Book Superstore in Burlington is my personal money pit -- and honestly, I'm fine with it…read more I've never managed to leave with fewer than ten books, and at this point, I don't even pretend I will. The selection feels endless. Every genre, every niche, and then, just when you think you've seen it all, there's a wall of Blu-rays, DVDs, video games, board games, and random bits of memorabilia you didn't know you wanted until they're already in your basket. The prices are almost insulting to other stores. Seriously, I've paid more for a cup of coffee than I have for some of the books here. You'd almost feel guilty... except you don't, because you're too busy carrying out a stack taller than your torso. The staff is excellent -- actually helpful, not the fake "let me know if you need anything" kind. They've tracked down what I came in looking for, and then somehow convinced me to walk out with three more titles I didn't even know existed. My shelves at home are groaning under the weight of their recommendations, but sure, suggest me another series. Why not. I've been a regular for about a year now, and as long as I live in Massachusetts, this will be one of the few places I actually look forward to throwing money at. You never know what you'll find here, which is exactly why I keep coming back.

Such a cool throwback music store…read more This small shop is located next to the County Kitchen that I'm a regular at and consistently going to just to get Matthew A off his Duke Ship here. The owner is named Jeff he's super laid back and a reminders me of a OH (original hipster- just made that up but as a gift to you I will let you use it-Your Welcome) not that new age hipsters that are taking over Brooklyn faster then that mice on a NYC subway station. This shop has all your favorite music that has inspired the vast majority if not all of the current music your hearing today. Jeff opened this store over 30 years ago and is a music genius himself. This shop is packed floor to ceiling with very cool Atracks, Vinyls, Tape Cassettes, CDs of all oldie but goodies. Music is a passion for some people and you can feel that this store is filled with not just music items but packed with Love. You can see that like this name of this shop music is in Jeff's DNA I'm not a music person. I love music but hated my grade school musical teacher so that were I being to dislike music. I respect people who do have musical talents as I don't have any. It's a cool great place to come and get inspired. I'm sure if your a music person Jeff will gladly talk about all that.

Located inside of the Pheasant Lane Mall upper level near Sears, this FYE has been a long time…read moremainstay at this mall, offering a pretty good selection of new & used CDs, DVDs, Blu-Ray movies, video games, accessories, toys, books, magazines, posters, candy, small electronics, and other cool gifts. The layout inside this store is very cramped with lots of merchandise, seems like you're bumping into lots of things especially near the front of the store. With Newbury Comics located at the other end of the mall, this FYE location offers very competitive pricing and some pretty good sales and promotions such as Buy 3 Used CDs or DVDs, Get 1 Free, $7.99-$9.99 CDs, and $5 (with any purchase) impulse CDs & Movies at the counter. I've shopped at this particular location for many years since no sales tax is charged in New Hampshire. Back in May 2000, I preordered my copy of the Britney Spears Oops! I Did It Again CD at this store. This store has organized several CD signings and meet & greets over the years in conjunction with Simon Mall events including Natalie, Dream Street, Plain White Ts, AJR, and others. I've spent plenty of time shopping inside this FYE and I usually comparison shop online before making my purchases. I've found that the sale prices here on several of the popular/new release CDs are sometimes priced lower than the nearby competition (Newbury Comics, Barnes & Noble, Bull Moose) . Recently, I bought several popular CDs here for $7 each during the Black Friday weekend events. It is unfortunate that many music retailers including FYE have been closing stores and /or cutting back on CDs due to online music downloads and Amazon. The FYE in Concord closed this year and the FYE in Hanover MA is liquidating, which has been "The Place" for many popular meet & greets and signings for the Boston area. The FYE (Crossgates Mall) in Albany NY also hosts meet & greets and signings for several musicians and WWE wrestlers. Additionally, the other remaining NH location in Newington also offers pretty good sale prices and selection. With Best Buy and Target cutting out most their music CDs and focusing on movies, FYE is still the place to shop for my music CD needs! You can also order CDs on the fye.com site too!

They have a good selection of older rock albums, but they massively overprice everything. They also…read morehave a tendency to claim an album is a more rare edition than it actually is so they can upcharge. Be sure to check everything on Discogs before buying. They will lower the price if you call them out on their shenanigans, though, so be diligent. Their recent arrivals section is usually pretty good, but the normal, already alphabetized stuff are pretty common records but marked up due to location. Honestly, I only ever look through the recent arrival stuff when I stop in nowadays. But again, check the editions before buying because they will absolutely claim it's a rarer edition when it's certainly not.

I shop for records all over the country and have never seen a more overpriced record store…read more They certainly have a commendable amount of inventory- in particular of foreign rock n roll pressings. If you are a KISS fan especially, there is a lot of specialized, rarer stuff here. But the rare inventory seems to come at the cost of all the inventory's pricing. The prices are 2-3 times what I've paid for the same condition pressings elsewhere- sometimes 4-5 times more. I'm not sure how it's getting these prices especially in a small town like Rochester. A bummer- if the prices were in line I would've bought a good dozen records!

Garnick's is one of the shops you just have to experience if you're new to Lowell or if you've…read morelived in the city for a while and still have not yet been to experience the media kitsch that lives on in this time capsule. Here are several reasons why you might legitimately find yourself at Garnicks: 1. You need an old record player, radio, arcade game, or television fixed. 2. You have a hipster craving for records, VHS, or other outdated media. 3. You want to get the perfect gift for an audiophile but need someone to talk to about their music tastes to determine what they may not have and would like to have. 4. You like to talk about music and want to waste an hour with some older dudes who can chat your ear off better than a radio personality. 5. You want to sell your collection of records, CDs, VHS, or old concert paraphernalia and be done with them. 6. Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought him back. If they don't have it in the store, don't be afraid to ask- they have thousands of CDs and Records hidden from plain view. Like the other used record store in town, they do a lot of business on EBay to make up for what they don't do in store. They also buy old media, so bring it here to get it appraised before you put those records and CDs in a yard sale. The place is falling apart and a bit of a mess, but the guys know where everything is and can usually find what you're looking for in less than a minute. If you visit more than once, they'll get to know you, your tastes, and what you're looking for so they can keep it in store for you. Here's a link to their EBay store, which has a very small selection of items: http://www.ebay.com/sch/paulgarmusic/m.html

That's probably the only negative was (imho) the prices are high. It may be the neighborhood. Not high enough to keep me from buying the ones I didn't have but high enough to keep me from buying upgrades to my collection. Lots of related merchandise as well which I bought a couple of items. Owner was real friendly and not pushy which is always a plus. I will be back on my next trip to the area.
