sirensongofra Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Does anyone know of a Hot Topic in Massachusetts that has a decent selection of vinyl? Usually i just go to Newbury Comics when I'm down there, but with all the exclusives coming out I'll definitely be checking these out.

booms528 Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I've never seen vinyl in a Hot Topic in Massachusetts... I think I've looked in 2 or 3 of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RivannaJunction Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I once asked an employee at the Burlington one if they carried vinyl and he said no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openupyourskull Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Nonexistent. (From what I've seen, at least.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirensongofra Posted October 23, 2013 Author Share Posted October 23, 2013 Yea I've been to quite a few but havent found any in Mass or southern NH. the one in Milford, CT has a good selection. Figured id ask if anyone knew though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergeantscruffy Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Yeah, they all used to and now they just... don't. Where are you going to be in Massachusetts? Maybe I could suggest a record store or two? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derkwithano Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Yeah, they all used to and now they just... don't. Where are you going to be in Massachusetts?

sergeantscruffy Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 What are you talking about? My Hot Topic most definitely never carried vinyl and I doubt many others did in MA. The Hot Topic in Braintree carried vinyl for a long time. (I got MCS Even If It Kills Me there for like 6 bucks). So did the one in Holyoke. I know the one in Southern New Hampshire in Portsmouth maybe? carried it as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tape Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 to my knowledge, no Hot Topic in MA has vinyl, but I can't confirm Holyoke. definitely nothing in EMass though. EMass also includes for this purpose Nashua and Salem, NH as the Pheasant Lane Mall actually straddles the state border and Rockingham is less than a mile.

tonyfranciosa Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 I fell like I saw vinyl at the one in the Cape Cod Mall when I was there on vacation, but it could have been Newbury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Holyoke does. If I saw this 5 minutes ago, I would have checked the selection. Alas, my break is almost over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemongoat Posted October 23, 2013 Share Posted October 23, 2013 Maybe I can hijack this thread for a similar question. I'm going to the blink show in Hollywood, how about Hot Topics with vinyl around there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koljou Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Maybe I can hijack this thread for a similar question. I'm going to the blink show in Hollywood, how about Hot Topics with vinyl around there? The Hollywood and Highland mall has the biggest selection - it is the corporate store and will have all new releases. It also has a separate section for clearance with a good selection. Parking is a bitch but it's worth it. It's also near Amoeba. So go there too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

koljou Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 I wouldn't waste the time in Hot Topic. Amoeba is amazing and will eat your day from under your feet. For sure. I've only even been to the Hollywood HT once, but I routinely go to Amoeba. Hot Topic will have some things that Amoeba won't though and is worth a quick stop. Plus since it's the corporate store it's really, really nice compared to other ones. And yeah, if you (lemongoat) do go to Amoeba you seriously want to give yourself several hours. Like 5. It is definitely not a quick stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemongoat Posted October 24, 2013 Share Posted October 24, 2013 Will definitely do both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anthemforadoomed Posted November 10, 2013 Share Posted November 10, 2013 Stepped into the one in the Holyoke mall. They had vinyl but only a handful of records. Less than 15 maybe even 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 There were 2 more there yesterday before I grabbed both copies of brand new eyes. But yeah, their selection used to be triple that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
