If you want to take a subway to mid-town (10-15 minutes). Vortex Records is worth a look:

Stewart,
Alas, there is only ONE record store on Queen worth noting....and it's
closer to University (east of MuchMusic) -- KOPP'S KOLLECTABLES. Mostly
vinyl. And the upstairs is a haven for 7" singles. Otherwise you're left
with nothing but HMV's both in and around the vaccinity of the Eaton's
Centre.
However, on College east of Bathurst is She Said Boom run by former MADE
bassist John Bokker. It's a book store and record shop.
And if you're on Bloor between Bathurst & Spadina there's a few used CDs
stores beside Lee's Palace and across the street from it.
