    The second hand bookstore on Little Catherine street does. Can't vouch for their quality though.

    It's a pity, the place really mixes the great stuff with the absolute crap.

    I was actually wondering that very thing yesterday
    after tracking a load of ebay auctions and wanting to buy nearly everything.
    I miss the black spot.

    There was another shop in a basement of one of the streets
    not sure if it was Mallow st or Glenthworth st that sold vinyl
    but dont think its there anymore.

    I was also on the lookout for cheap frames so I could frame
    some Picture Discs. HMV used to sell them but I dont know
    where they would be picked up nowadays.

    I've been meaning to pick up one
    of those turntables with the MP3 endoder/USB ports in them
    so I can copy some old stuff.

    The Pery Hotel - downstairs - Saturday December 11th - this fair visits every 3 or 4 months or so.

    The guy in the Little Catherine Street bookshop really does have some gems in there, but as was said earlier they tend to be hidden among status quo and a worrying amount of Chris de Burg!!

    Steer clear of the fair that visits perys hotel. They are absolute robbers. They charge you an entry fee, their prices are astronomical and rarely trying to trade with them is a nightmare.Everythings priced in sterling too, and they have the attitude that they are just showing off their record collection instead of selling it.

    Theres some huge collections on adverts. Darius or something like that has a HUGE collection of classic records, ive bought loads off him and most are in near perfect condition. Ive had a few clangers too but 95% of the stuff he has is a-ok!

    Got to agree with this in my experience.
