"Lou's in Encinitas has an unbeatable selection of CD's and a good selection of audiophile new vinyl, but their used record stock is getting pretty depleted."

Infact some recommend to stay away -- awaste of time.

"Off The Record in North Park has gone downhill since their "glory days," selling a lot of their stock on the internet now. You should try Record City on 6th Ave in Hillcrest - probably the best used selection in the city. And while you're there...tucked away on a side street close by is Thirsty Moon Records"....a block North of University Ave. in Hillcrest. "They don't have a huge selection, but if you love obscure beat, garage, funk, reggae, punk, prog, or Kraut, this is the place for you. I can't think of any other store that regularly stocks albums by artists as wide-ranging as Erkin Koray, Los Vidrios Quebrados, and Bango."

No personal experience -- sorry -- just thought I'd post what I found regarding SD shoppes.

Thanks Bob,

Went to Off the Record but didn't find enough to justify dealing with it.

Was pretty hot and didn't really want to risk the couple of expensive title that I Might have bought.
