Lol this still happens to me. I like my physical copies of certain novies/albums/whatever.

The local vinyl store special ordered a bunch of REALLY obscure chili peppers stuff for me as a GIFT once because I spent a good chunk of time/money there.

But yeeeears ago being told to listen to king crimson by a guy at a completely different store was pretty fucking good. I was like "how did I not know this? This is like... exactly what I want"
