Years ago they used to keep the discs behind the counter in a binder with the cases on the shelves. They stopped that and now just put the entire case and discs inside on the shelves which allows me to check the condition of the discs. Which is really required because some discs look like someone took sandpaper to it. | | | | Last edited: by CubbyUps |
