Or is it just another in the long list of lies by Reid?

Confirmation from the Alex account is no confirmation at all.

We have several in my area. But they aren't really half price. And they are the lowest paying used book buyers.

A confirmation from Bee Girl is certainly a confirmation. But does it carry enough clout to outweigh the historic deceit of the washing machine account?

Reid told me that half price books seems like a store that would fit into my neighborhood, but it just so happens that there are absolutely no HPB stores in New York :/

I'm always willing to buy things for RMers at my local HPB if you paypal me the money. Pete, I still think that you should have taken me up on that Biograph vinyl box that one time.

When they remodeled the Montrose location, it took them like two weeks. Afterwards, the only real change I noticed was that the records were where the CDs used to be and vice-versa :?

Oh, and there is now a weird wallpaper that covers most of the windows to make it look like the place is literally busting at the seams with books.

Did you ever listen to those discs I sent you? I patiently await your reply.

I did, but I haven't revisited them in some time so I have little (read: nothing) to say about them at the moment.

My problem with CDs is I pretty much only listen to them in the car. I need to get a CD player to hook up to my stereo in my room.

You might be able to find one at half price books. I've seen hardware there before.

Shit, I was just there getting the screen protector put on my phone.
