Where books are quite cheap, some CDs are also, and the rest...

i will be sorry if they go from glasgow, they have lots of gd DVD bargains - strange that they've just opened a biggish store in the old Tower recs site under central st

i was in there today in fact, and oddly they were not taking credit cards, only cash

they used to have a branch on Oxford St but that closed over a year ago

When MVC went under earlier this year Music Zone took over the Chiswick branch, they didn't last long then. Fopp being over the road probably didn't help.

Now I'm too far away from Chiswick to benefit from any closing down sales, but given how much I hated working there I think I can live with that.

Not taking credit cards, sure sign the jig is up.

That's a shame. I've got some bargains in there. Agguire Wrath Of God for 2.97! Andrew Loog Oldham's 2Stoned for 1.97! And Nik Cohn's Awopbopaloobop for 97p!
Shit and expensive for any new cds though.

Two in Hull, they are superficially bargainous but mostly the kind of store you tend to wander around for not that long before realising there's not as much (cheap) quality on the shelves as you first thought.

Okay maybe Kylie for £1.96 and other such overstock gems, but that's it.

If them dying = more Fopps I will be PLEASED.
