You have to visit Record Emporium in Chicago (on Paulina).  You will be amazed at the selection.

Outside of Chicago there is Bop Street in Seattle. According to J. Greenwood of Radiohead, this "store takes the cake in the country". They have over 1/2 million items in stock. Owner Dave Voorhees seriously knows his stuff. Message me if you need more info on this place. Dave will track down anything for you.

When we were still living in Champaign, we used to shop at The Quaker Goes Deaf.  I'm pretty sure they're gone, but does anyone know if they closed outright, or did they move?  I know they weren't a huge vinyl place, but I got a few good ones there.
