· HIGHEST PRICES PAID CASH OR TRADE FOR YOUR CDs, LPs, 45s, & DVDs: Though this claim is made by others, Penny Lane has always realized that the only way to get the best used music and movies is to pay you the highest price for them, which we actually do. For proof, we suggest you take your items elsewhere, get a quote, then bring them to us - you won't be disappointed. See our Buying Policies.

· USED I-PODS: Though they sell nearly as fast as we buy them, used iPods are now a regular item at the Penny Lane store across from Pasadena City College. Check with us anytime to see which models we have in stock. If you have one to sell, bring it on in - the price we sell them is the same amount we give you in store credit (cash value is half).

· ECLECTIC MUSIC AND FILMS: In addition to all the top new releases, we offer a great selection of independent, foreign, silent, incredibly strange, and adult films that you definitely won't find at Blockwood or Hollybuster. Also, you’ll find indie, classic and out-of-print music on CD and LP that the “big box” stores would never offer.

· LISTEN BEFORE YOU BUY: You may always preview any CD, new or used, before your purchase. It’s a much better way to check out great new music than 30-second snippets.

· LOW PRICES: Many of our customers feel that $10 or less is the right price to pay for music and movies, and we agree. You'll be hard-pressed to find a better selection anywhere at this price - new or used.

· RENTAL ALTERNATIVE: Return any CD or DVD within 7 days and receive 80% store credit. Inadvertently, this policy has contributed to the growth of countless personal music and film libraries - with better quality and cheaper than downloads.

· SPECIAL ORDERS: If a title Is currently in print, we can usually have it for you within one to five days. We only require a $5 deposit which is applied toward the purchase price. There is no extra charge.

· LIFESTYLE & GIFT ITEMS: We offer DJ gear, books, magazines, posters, t-shirts, funky toys, stickers, buttons, patches, Mexican wrestling masks and other indispensable items.

· FREE LIVE SHOWS: Periodically, the Penny Lane store across from Pasadena City College offers free live shows by artists that happen to be in the area. Call us to see who's coming up next. Or, if you're a recording artist with a new CD, call (626) 535-0949 to set up an in-store.

· ACTUAL HUMAN BEINGS: Yes, our in-store staff will interact and speak to you, even offer recommendations whether you want them or not.
