DJWET Posted November 3 Report Share Posted November 3 That's right closing for GOOD !!!! Gee I wonder why ???? Can we say because of free mp3 file trading .... But anyway my friend Steve has owned Smiley's for 6 years .... Looks like the store will be completely closed the end of December 2002 early January 2003 .... He has NO CHOICE !!!! Here are the prices of domestic vinyl and import vinyl .... He has cd singles and import cd singles too .... About 20,000 pieces on vinyl .... Maybe you're looking for an extra vinyl copy that you played the death out of that you can't find anymore .... Give Steve a call and tell him Wayne ( DJ WET ) gave you the info .... I'm gonna really miss Steve and his Record Store .... Very Very Sad :( Domestic Vinyl : $ 3.99Import Vinyl : $ 6.99Smiley's Records1808 Route 37 East Fiesta PlazaToms River , New Jersey 08753Phone Number ( 732 ) 270 - D I S C ( 3 4 7 2 ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boriginal Posted December 14 Report Share Posted December 14 Smiley's will stay open a little after the new year. For exact info call the store.732-270-3472:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thepulse Posted December 14 Report Share Posted December 14 I wouldn't blame it all on the MP3 thing, but I'm sure thats a major reason. That was a great store to stop into when I was in the area for the weekend or something. They also have competition down there recently from the guys at ZBASS. It was only a matter of time before that put a dent into Smiley's. I may have to stop in just to see if I can catch a few copies of things for a bargain.

jerrylee Posted December 16 Report Share Posted December 16 First off. I would like to wish Steve Good Luck, He had a Great Store and Kept all the records in mint condition. Good Luck Steve We will Miss you!!!Second: The free music deal is what put him out of business (napster,cd trading,etc). Pretty soon there will be only imports to buy and all domestic labels will go out of business, just like Strictly Rythem, then remixer's will stop producing mixes, because they will not get paid for them, because the internet dj will just download their mix before they buy it.NO MORE DOMESTIC RECORDSNO MORE NEW MIXESWHY? BECAUSE PEOPLE DON'T WANT TO PAY FOR IT!!!!!!GET OFF THE COMPUTER AND BUY YOUR SHIT, THATS WHAT A REAL DJ DOES!!!!!Jerry Lee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
