cactusbot Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 Yeah. Used Kids! It is one of my favorite stores ever. They have recently started selling a lot of the good stuff on ebay but there are still deals to have. Magnolia Thunderpussy is also up there. But it is mostly new and somewhat overpriced. Those are both on High Street. I am not sure of any others, but someone else probably knows of some. Where do you live now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cactusbot Posted August 11, 2008 Share Posted August 11, 2008 It is on High Street. It is like a couple blocks away from Urban Outfitters. Right next to Wendy's. It is right next to a place called Buckeye Donuts. You should eat there. It is like a small local place. Small menu, like gyros and chicken fingers. Great food, great fries, incredible donuts. Pretty cheap. Check it out. Also, Used Kids is kind of hidden. It is upstairs and the entrance is set back a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have always sold a ton of eBay, you can pick anything up in the store you buy of the bay cause they are nice. www.usedkids.com Lost Weekend Records is also great. You may have missed this one. It's up in Clintonville area. http://www.lostweekendrecords.com/ Magnolia Thunderpussy is in the short north down by Skullys / Bodega / Surly Girl so I bet you have heard of it. Johnny Go's is also on High, farther down toward short north. Singing dog, also on High, expensive but good rap section and old collectible LPs If you like jam band stuff check out Ace In The Hole aceintheholemusic.com LP selection is all used, hit or miss dollar stuff. Roots Records if you want a fix of your reggae, again on high street, by King Ave. Collens Collectibles - 1476 Oakland Park Ave - They run quarterly record shows so check them out. and if your interested in going ons around town www.donewaiting.com is your friend, or columbusunderground.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alphajerk Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Sour Records A good old mom & pop record store Although it is quite a bit north of Columbus proper Oh snap I should've kept my little secret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpw Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 I looked up the sour records place so I could check it out myself. Looks like the guy closed up shop and is only selling online now. http://www.sourrecords.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melikecheese Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Yeah sour closed about 12 months ago to do eBay only. It's too bad cause it really was a nice shop, you couldn't call it a indie shop or a punk shop, just had good stuff in general from all genres. The owner was a real nice guy too, he was actually a weekly customer and purchased the store from the original owner when he was ready to move on.
