Where are you buying new vinyl?

One of life's necessary evils just came good for me - now every man and his dog is into selling vinyl again I found a wonderful use for my AMEX points this week I've been building up for a while - I treated myself to 500 bucks of barnes and noble gift cards and spent the lot on the good olde black stuff!

Based in NYC we still have a few independents left: my favs: Rebel Rebel, Other Music, & J&R Music World (who btw seem to pull out all kinds of oddities that have been collecting dust in their basement for years, a few weeks ago they had a bunch of sealed copies of the front/nixon interviews which actually turned out to be a fascinating listen!)

A recent visit to Boston burned a huge hole in my pocket (paid with my CC of course!) to Newbury Comics - they have a wonderful selection of pretty much everything out right now.

So where is everyone getting their stuff - bricks and mortar stores or online?
sub question - Has anyone bought vinyl from everyones favorite hi-fi store: best buy (!) - and did the experience affect you psychologically in some way?

Newbury Comics Boston & Cambridge, Somerset records in Somerset MA., Cheapo Records in Cambridge MA. For used I shop at above and at Loony Tunes & In You Ear in Boston & Cambridge. I find small stores and chains like Newbury Comics sell both new & used. These other locations I hunt for the diamonds in the rough. Salvation Army, Morgan Memorial, flee markets and any other locations where I think they may be hiding the items of my addiction. Oh ya the usual spots on the web.
I drive all over New England for work and I find all kinds of places to buy records. My wife would like me to slow down but the fun is in the hunt ya know.
