I've been to this shop three times now, over the past year. I always find vinyl at decent prices, and the employees have always been nice to me. I've been to a ton of vinyl shops, and this one ranks in my top half. read more

Cd's 4 Change - One month from today. Happening in record stores around the country. Sounds like a fun time :) - Music & DVDs Near Me - Dubuque, Iowa

I rarely leave 1 stars but after having the customer experience I had here... yikes. I don't understand how this store has 4.5 stars? I was in Galena visiting for the weekend from Chicago. I called the night before record store day which was happening on 6/12 to kindly ask about artists and quantities. They didn't tell me either and alluded to the fact that the fun in record store day is the surprise. Hmm. In my city they will at least tell you if they will have that artist in stock out, that way you know whether to wait in line or not. I arrive to a line of 5 people the morning of. Fine by me, first come first serve. The first person in line happened to want the same vinyl I wanted, and they only had 1. Again, congrats to them. It's how the company went about it. Every single other record was on the shelves/ displayed for it to be more of a "free for all". Barely any organization. Just open the door and good luck. Again, not used to that chaos. The one vinyl I was after though, was behind the counter. Via the workers. Handing it off to the buyer. Had I known they only had 1 copy I would've handled that differently but god forbid they would've said that the night prior. Just really not a cool way to handle an exclusive fun day for fans. Moondog music up the street was far better and the store had a better atmosphere over all. Much more of a record store vibe. Happy I gave them my money instead. read more

A quirky place on the outskirts of Dubuque that has a pretty good selection, especially in the rock-pop genres. Most of the stuff in the main bins will be in VG-VG+ condition. Every so often you'll find a NM+ gem in the racks. They don't mark conditions or first pressings, and some harder-to-find discs are a bit over-priced. Have a smartphone with discogs loaded up to double check something you think to be a find. There's an assortment of discount bins with beat-up/undesirable stuff for those who want to shop on the cheap. And like most used record stores, you'll pay a bit of a premium to not have to run all over God's creation to find things that are interesting. It's not often you'll find a good used record store in a smaller city, but CDs-4-Change is a nice find. Make sure to do your homework before shopping here. read more

Very happy to have a buddy recommend this place while I was around for the holidays. There's a great selection of vinyl, mixed with used and new, tons of classic and world class artists. Most of the used is in pretty good condition. They have imported/live vinyl that you don't run into very often (old REM, ancient Gram Parsons, a Yup'ik folksinger, etc.). Very cool, knowledgeable, helpful owner, and requisite head-in-the-cloud record store patrons? Check. read more

went here to see what they had I had some some 45's records went to the counter to pay for them the guy did not want to sell me them becouse he did not price them after I made a offer for them he still would not sell me them he decited to sit on his ass and do nothing F+ moondog is much better where the staff takes the time to help you. read more

Great store, if you're in Dubuque you have to stop in. Lots of vinyl for such a small space, mostly used but some new. A really diverse selection: lots of "typical" stuff for used vinyl, like Dylan, Beatles, etc. But, they also have a lot of hard-to-find metal from the early-80s that you just don't see every day. Owner was really knowledgeable: I asked about any not-on-the-floor Kiss stuff (I'm always looking for bootlegs), and he sold me a copy of Sean Delaney's "Highway." THAT'S a guy who knows his stuff! read more

I highly recommend AVOIDING THIS STORE and or buying anything from them online. They RIPPED ME OFF for 100 bucks!!! I bought an album from them and when i received the album it was damaged. I sent it back and they emailed me saying "Why did you send it back? listened to it 4 times and no skips or signs of damage?" I know that it was broken and i knew they were lying so i said to them your company says they offer refunds, if you have the item and claim it works fine just please give me my money back because i didn't want to start a whole Case on ebay about it. The seller has IGNORED my messages for the past month and a half and REFUSES to pay me back so ive made it my mission to make sure they loose customers for EXTREMELY POOR customer service and make sure they don't continue to rip off more people like they did me. Their Ebay account is "4550zz" you can log on yourself and read all their negative horrible feedback. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS STORE UNLESS YOU WANT TO GIVE AWAY FREE MONEY!!!!! read more
