i dont think its there anymore sadly =(

[jiraii]

So sad, I remember going to that store when I lived in Sac. But the area started getting really bad around the mid-90's, so it was just a matter of time before it closed.

did it get demoleshed because of a copyright claim? why did it get demolished?

[eyeh8nbc]

Yes, they demolished the mall because of a copyright claim- the Camelot Music store that used to be there was selling bootleg DVDs, a number of years before the format even existed. ;)

Wow! A commercial announcing the grand opening of Tower Records on Florin? Man, that store used to be my haven when I was a kid. I'd always beg my parents to take me to that Tower store. It was also my first job after graduating high school. Sadly, it is no longer there. It closed in July 2005, and now some dumb sandwich store is there! Long live Tower Records on Florin!

four nintey-five for a blank vhs tape? damn!

[eyeh8cbs]

Hey, it was a much better deal than when they were about 20 bucks each when they first came out!

@Creepingdeathx81

Heck I remember paying $10 each back in '84 and thinking it was a good price.

What are those funny square things they are advertising?
