Thanks, Sleeve. I've got the goog on my internet too but I thought I'd ask in case people had opinions (as people here sometimes do) - viz: "Such-and-such's prices are way out of whack" or "So-and-so has a great dollar bin" as well as maybe digging up a great store that doesn't have a web presence. Your willingness to assist greatly appreciated tho.

OK, I've found three stores in Spokane and one in nearby Coeur d'Alene. Anyone with any experience with any of these stores please share, thx.

Long Ear Records in Coeur d'Alene

(found via recordshops.org, which is a great resource I had no idea about - mapping record stores all over the world.)

I don't live in Spokane but live close and am there somewhat frequently (like this coming weekend, for example). I've been to the three Spokane ones but not for a while; the Bachelor Pad is what used to be called Unified Groove Merchants a couple years ago and I've never been to this new iteration, though I bought my vintage receiver at the former. I remember 4,000 Holes being my favorite, they seemed to have a ton of stuff and prices didn't seem out of line but it's been a couple years and my record jones has sort of decreased.
There's another vintage/kitschy shop on Monroe called Time Bomb that I seem to recalling also having at least some vinyl but I don't remember how much.
Not sure if you know the area or not but Coeur d'Alene is a 40 minute drive from Spokane, you definitely need a car and all that.
