Lincoln Square Village will be crawling with hundreds of audiophiles starting as early as doors will allow, this Saturday, May 17 at 8 a.m. The annual Vintage Vinyl sale begins at the crack of dawn (for those the love to r-a-w-k). Those waiting in line usually can be found scanning their prepared list of records to hunt for as soon as they step foot in the sale.
Once inside, they’ll find used records, tapes and CDs, in almost every genre, in seemingly endless, tightly packed rows. The donated items will be sold at various prices, some as inexpensive as one dollar. Used stereo equipment can also be found at bargain prices.
The entrance fee will be $5 when doors open; 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. free admittance; and finally from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. it will be free admittance for all, accompanied by a half price sale. The sale benefits WILL’s Illinois Radio Reader, news and information for visually handicapped in east central Illinois.
Lincoln Square Village is located in downtown Urbana at the corner of Elm and Broadway, and the sale will be across the hall from Cardinal Fitness on the east side of the mall.
