The best place I know of is QED on Ogden Avenue in Westmont (western burbs). They used to be a laserdisc rental joint, and are now DVD only. I used to live in Westmont (in fact I moved there to be close to them ), but have since moved further north so I don't get by there too often. I was in a couple of weeks ago, though, and noticed quite a few other-region discs. They have a knowledgeable staff and usually price their DVDs at 20-25% off list.

Which suburb, nlogax? There is one in Skokie too close to the Skokie theater in (snicker) downtown Skokie.

I'll be around Naperville/Wheaton I think. I've heard a few people talk about QED, I'll have to check them out.

1/4 - 1/2 mile west of Rt. 83, which would be east of Cass. It's in a little strip mall which runs perpendicular to Ogden on the north side, next to a car dealership, I think.
