Record digging tips for Sankt Gallen

How the regulars work Sankt Gallen's bins:

• Learn to spot reissues at Klang und Kleid. Reissues are cheaper and often sound great. Originals cost more for the history. Know which you're paying for.
• Check the bargain wall rhythm at Yesterday's Music. Shops restock the cheap sections on cycles. Ask when — that's when the fresh bargains land.
• Ask the staff what's new. Shop staff know what's just come in and what's about to. One question can save an hour of digging.
• Check for box sets. Box sets get broken up or sold whole; either way the per-record price is often excellent.
