Editorial Review for Rasputin's Records--Berkeley – by Mike Seely
In Short
With a wall of windows on Telegraph Avenue, Rasputin's is a shopping destination for students and their profs alike. New and used CDs line the upstairs shelves, while downstairs, you'll find all kinds of cheap, used vinyl and lots of junk, too (a reflection of Rasputin's very open record-buying policy). But who knows--Egyptian Lover and Dokken could be the retro music of the millennium, so maybe Rasputin's is simply hip to the distant future.

Maybe the biggest music store around there, but the service is terrible and the price is not cheap. You had better go to Amazon at first.

I bought a DVD at Berkeley store. The DVD said "List 69.97 / Rasputin Price 39.97", so I thought it was really cheap. But after I came back home and checked internet, I found that the real retail price of the DVD is 44.98!! Amazon sells it only 24.00 dollars. I returned to the store and tried to refund it. They said that it was their mistake, but that they cannot refund because they don't have return policy. What do you think? I feel like that I got taken!! I will never go to the store again.
