My family just relocated to VA from MA and I was hoping to find some local board members who could point me to some record stores worth checking out. Looking for places with great score/soundtrack sections, both new and used stuff.
I'm currently in Ashburn and we'll likely wind up buying a home somewehere around here in the next few months. Thanks in advance!

Im in southern Virginia but my homie told me of this shop in Fairfax, shouldn't be too far from you:

He recently picked up some oldschool gabber records and a technics table too.

If you make it down to Richmond, there are plenty of local stores to visit.
Plan 9 - Since 1981. Not what it used to be by any means, as they relocated to a smaller location a few years ago, but still a great place to shop, and still the biggest game in town.
Deep Groove - The owner, Jay, super nice guy, used to be GM of Plan 9 for many years, opened his own store 6 years ago or so. Great place, always worth checking out.
Steady Sounds - Just celebrated 5 years this week. Very cool place, always interesting stuff going through the bins.
There are some others, but those are the ones worth checking out if you're here for a day.

Thanks @Dumaisaudio! It's a bit of a long haul but it sounds like it'd be worth it every once and a while.
