Fye

Asked a simple question if they had a specific cd, was on hold for over 15mins before I decided to hang up.

This store sucks. Ask anyone who works there who Gov’t Mule is and they will say «huh?, Hyuck Hyuck.» As usual have to buy the new album on iTunes.

This is a place in the mall where you can get your DVD/​CD/​LP on.
Great selection of movies to buy, new and used as well as music, posters and other nicknack entertainment accessories.
If you stop in on a holiday or around Christmas, they usually have some pretty good buy one get one style deals.
I was there solely to purchase some records.
Their selection is pretty weak.
The LP section is about 10 feet long and only about a yard and a half deep. You got your top 40 and pop, some hip hop and rock, but nothing interesting. You aren’t going to find any gems in this selection unless someone happened to bring in an old, used LP to sell.
Speaking of used LPs, I reckon out of the grand total of all records available for purchase, maybe ¹⁄₂₀^th of the total was used.
Very slim amount indeed. Bummer.
The popular wax was going for around 20 – 30 bucks a pop. I got an old RATM record that came with the picture disc. Unfortunately the sleeve it came in (the photo discs don’t have the regular cardboard sleeve records come in so as to showcase the design printed on the wax) was really banged up and torn.
I asked if they had any others I could put it in instead.
They had none.
I said would you knock a buck off the price since it’s mangled.
They said no.
Pretty weak.
If you want CDs or DVDs, FYE is great.
If you want records, stick to Park Ave.

Stopped by Altamonte Mall for some clothes and ducked in here. My soul felt dirty at first. I miss the days of Musicland and Camelot in the malls. so I forged ahead and figured I’d glance around with the pretentious veiled feeling that I’m tooooo coooool for this place. I didn’t much mind the actual selection they had, though.
Found something. Then the $ 15-​$ 16 price tag made my soul feel dirty again. I actually bought it. and the guy asked me if I wanted to purchase the $ 2 scratch/​replace plan. HAHA!!! That laugh has worth the bloated (almost more bloated than me after hitting an Indian buffet) price.
Oh well.. what else is one gonna do in the Altamonte Mall since Farrell’s closed down.
