I've been going to Allentown for a bunch of years now and I've always been happy with the service. The owner is knowledgeable and always honest. I've heard him recommend AGAINST someone spending more money in his store than was necessary, because a cheaper piece of equipment suited their needs better.
I've bought used gear there, new gear there, accessories, instruments and audio production tools. You might find some better deals on ebay, but you'd honestly have to search, especially when you consider shipping. Also, you really can't beat the owners open, informative customer service. This is not the shop that offers blowout, monthly deals and steals on select equipment. This is a guy who offers fair prices on all his stock, year round.
I definitely recommend stopping in to see what he's got before you head to the big box stores.
