=================BEGIN QUOTE============================================ Are they really the same chain? I never realized they were. I really enjoy J&R Music, and was thinking of ordering an item or two from them by mail order (i'd ordered from them 2 years ago, but back then I was living in NYC!). Have you heard anything (or experienced anything) positive or negative about them at all? In a way (I'm not sure if you're even familiar with them), I think J&R is better than the mega stores like Best Buy or Circuit City. Not just better, actually... WAAAAY better! :-) =================END QUOTE============================================= They are independent chains in their own countries rather than one big multi-national chain but all seem to support the concept of aggressively undercutting everybody else's prices when selling hi-fi gear. They also support a cheap but aggressive and effective way of advertising these goods. JB Hi-Fi also aggressive undercut everyone else when selling CDs; and now they are selling Region 4 DVDs for $A29.95 for a new-release movie.
