Vinyl Cause Floor To Collapse

This store is six blocks from my apartment. They are a thrift store but deal primarily in media, especially vinyl. They have thousands of LPs. They moved to this location recently, from a large single story building. I made my first visit to the new location a couple of weeks ago. The more desirable, categorized vinyl is located downstairs, but upstairs there were just boxes and boxes and boxes of uncategorized vinyl. The day I was there, there were a few collectors patiently going through box after box. And there were treasures to found if you had the time and patience.

There is a lot of chaff to wade through, but the collectors I have spoken to there say it is well worth the effort.

One man's chaff is another man's treasure.

UPDATE:

The second floor was not repaired, in fact the building was eventually torn down. This very red condo complex is going up in its' place. It's quite a looker.

Trying to think of a word..LEGO - yes that's it

It's is Lego, but I like it. This is Southern California after all!;) It's four sides of units with the center open air. Very "Rear Window".
