My cobras.

Anyone do this? I swear, i've found some nice gems in the used cassette and cd areas. Its hard to do if you don't have a relationship with the clerks since most stores i've been to hide the tapes and cd's in a backroom or behind a counter and just keep the jewel cases out.

I wanted to get into reel to reel since the shop I go to has a SICK collection of reel to reels. I swear, you could almost name an artist and they have a reel. The only problem with this is that reel to reel players are a **** to get repaired since obviously no one is making parts for them anymore. Too bad though, there is soooo much good shit. I'm thinking of working out something where he lets me sample from the machine if I pay him upfront.
