First time visiting this place and I WILL be returning to this location from now on! I've been…read morelooking for a kpop store that has a lot of diversity in terms of artists and has a ton of inventory. AND a place that sells individual photocards?? Instantly sold. I don't know any store that sells individual photocards, and it really makes completing collections and sets so much easier. I was very impressed by the middle table they had in the middle of the store that had many binders organized by groups with individual member PCs that you can purchase. The PCs are a little overpriced, but compared to Mercari shipping/fees and other third party sites, the PCs are basically what you can find at retail. You can basically justify Kandy Pop's prices with the instant gratification without waiting for shipping lol. But overall you can basically buy many photocards for the price of one album which is HUGE! I also love that they have a POB lucky draw/gatcha machine that rotates groups/sets regularly for $5/pull or with an album purchase. You can also sell your extra photocards here! If you have large quantities of PCs, you'd need an appointment but if you have a small handful (like I did), they will probably just buy your cards on the spot. They also have a wide selection of photocard holders, deco stickers and accessories, random assortment of trinkets, stationery, and blind boxes. This place is located inside a plaza inside Vietnam town. Parking may be difficult during peak hours but isn't too bad overall.

Cool spot! Came here with a friend on Thursday morning. There is a huge selection of used vinyls…read moreand equipment. They also offer cassettes and some books. The vinyls were grouped by music genre. They were in better shape than the $2 piles. The $2 vinyls weren't sorted, so it was fun to see what was available. As we were paying, the owner said that he regularly rotates what's out. Would come back to browse again! I found out about this place when I had purchased a few vinyls over at Minasan in Japantown and was told they were sourced from here. There is a small parking lot in the front, which was empty at the time, otherwise there is street parking nearby. There is a middle school nearby so the streets might be busier when school gets out.

I stumbled across Khai Hoan thanks to all it's flashy New Years flowers on display outside. Known primarily for their footwear, this little shop also carries little giftable trinkets. As a heads up, the shop is quite tiny and although the owners attempt to make the most of its space, social distancing isn't likely to happen. Parking was a breeze even factoring CNY traffic so that is definitely a perk. Customer service was friendly and the gal running the show was very very patient even with my indecisive a**. LMAO!! 4 stars.

I found the item I was looking for quickly and check out can take a little while depending on what the person in front of you is getting.
