    try soultrade, they always have a nice selection of new and 2nd hand stuff...for hiphop on the cheap (best prices in germany) and stuff like that limited dilla 45 accompanying his new album, try hiphopvinyl.de, they are located in friedrichshain...soultrade is in kreuzberg...these two are some of the best imo...you can find the adresses on the web...as far as 2nd hand, try the flea markets....

    soultrade is too expensive and they only have a very small stock. but you should ask the employees if they can help you out. there used to be two other stores very close to soultrade.

    it must be worth to go to berlin's biggest record store. 250,000 lps in stock. i forgot the name though. anyone?

    Soultrade dudes are really cool! definitely stop in there and chat with em. they'll help you out. That area, Kreutzberg (SP?) is pretty cool, but record stores are kinda weak. definitely go to the flea markets. that's where you'll find most shit. if you have loot to drop, holler at the PM and I'll give you some email addresses.

    Sorry for the kick.

    But I'm also going to Berlin sometime next month. Is there anyway to find out on forehand where there will be fleamarkets? And are there always fleamarkets?

    flea markets usually on sundays.

    here are some:

    Stra??e des 17 Juni [/b]
    Stra??e des 17 Juni , 10623 Berlin - Tiergarten | S-Bahn Tiergarten | Times: Sat & Sun 11.00-17.00
    One of Berlin's biggest and most touristed. A bustling and fashionable market with a variety of stalls selling everything from fancy buttons and a variety of hand-crafted items to funky second hand clothes, jewelry and records. Because of its more prominent location near the Zoo Station and the Technical University, it tends to be a bit on the pricey side.


    Arkonaplatz [/b]
    Arkonaplatz , 10435 Berlin - Mitte | U8 Bernauer Str. | Times: Sun 10.00-18.00
    Mitte is the the heart of cool Berlin, and this flea market is very Mitte. Come here to browse among stalls offering a range of clothing, brick-a-brack and furniture or find yourself a sunny spot in one of Arkonaplatz's cafes and watch Berlin??s alternative crowd do their thing. Check out the stands toward the back: some nice 70s lamps and other lounge accessories.


    Boghagener Platz [/b]
    Boxhagener Platz , 10245 Berlin - Friedrichshain | U5 Frankfurter Tor; Tram 21 |
    This flea market is a gem! Having come to life spontaneously some time late in 1999, there are few professionals here. Basically its a conglomeration of locals selling the stuff they collect or don't want. The wares on sale here represent the changing face of Friedrichshain. Expect to find older folk peddling relics of communist suburbia along side members of a younger generation with not-quite-hip-enough personal effects to dispose of.


    Heidestrasse [/b]
    Heidestr. 10, Berlin - Tiergarten | Times: Sat & Sun 10.00-18.00
    This small undercover flea market in old railway storage sheds advertises the above opening times, but its best to come early as most of the traders have packed up and gone home by mid afternoon. The focus here is on antiques and collectables:- Furniture, porcelain, books, records and model cars.


    Moritzplatz [/b]
    Moritzplatz , 10969 Berlin - Kreuzberg | U8 Moritzplatz | Times: Sat & Sun 8.00-16.00
    This is a real local trash and treasure market (no yuppies here). There's definitely more trash than treasure, but prices are low and and there are bargains to be found in this collection of thrown-together stalls full of 2nd hand clothing, books, records and attic junk.
