What I'm a Berkeley student and haven't gotten any discounts, and I must have spent at least $70 in cds since getting here D: Are you supposed to show ID or something?

(here comes another, I apologize for my redundancy) What Amoeba has J-pop???? There goes the money for my MS-1's.

I love how I walk outside of my dorm building, look to the right, and see Rasputin's XD Then again I hate it too, or at least my bank account does.

Thanks for the help. I personally hate driving in SF, so I was already leaning towards Berkeley. I didn't know about the Rasputin near the Berkeley shop. We are getting a Rasputin here in Fresno in the old Tower Records building.


Rasputin's took over the Tower building/store in Mtn View also. I like Rasputin's and I guess someone was going to pick the carcass of Tower clean, so it might as well be Rasputin's

show them your school id and get a discount. I think it use to be thursday and friday but now i think it is anyday. It use to be $2 off any purchase on Thursday/Fridays, which was a great deal if you buy used, but now its 10%

Berkley one doesn't have any. The Haight one has a fair amount of used selection. I usually get my new stuff at Kinokoniya(sp?) because of the point card thingy lol. I know I've gotten quite a bit for only a few bucks more than the cost to get used from Asia on ebay. I'd check it out. Mikado used to have a good amount of used jpop CDs but I think most of the good half off ones are gone(I swooped on Zone and Minmi

You sure you're not talking about Amoeba? I went there and saw the 10% off for students sign.

Oh and 902, too late, I went, but I didn't even look for jpop. They really do have a nice selection though, compared to Rasputins (at least for what I was looking for). Both stores are sold out of Bangs CDs though, I'm amazed. And if you're talking about the Kinokuniya bookstore, yeah, I've bought from there.
