That is just the NYC attitude and not a Sonic Groove thing at all! IMHO tb

I'm not happy to see them close. Their electro section was fantastic and the store was very organized (and much smaller than I expected). I just recall that I asked about something they were playing the store and they told me that they just sold it. It was more the way in which they said it - like they wouldn't have sold it to me even if they had more copies in the store. I also asked about some other records they had on the wall behind the counter and the two guys working were practically ignoring me. I was the only person in the store - just to make that clear. Pretty f*cking awful. I went across the street (Carmine) to Vinyl Mania and got great service and spent most of my money there.
