My son bought 4 cassettes from Sweet Repeat Records. I tried to look through the vinyl records but…read morethe store smelled of cigarettes and the smoke smell was so strong that I had to go outside and wait until my son was through shopping. I'm normally one who wants to flip through all the records in hopes to find that album I have been searching for but this wasn't the place for me.

Note, my OCD did kick in and I was dying to reorganize by category and for alpha order correctness, lol. If you're searching for a particular band, search the whole bin not just the grouping by band name because you may find what you're looking for buried in a different place. Also the staff will check the electronic inventory and tell you if they are currently sold out. Worth the trip to Hagerstown! ---- and they have their own off-street, free parking.

First time here today -- drove out from Baltimore. What an incredible selection this place has!…read moreWhat's even better is the service -- staff is knowledgeable and helpful, and even ordered some records for me. Everything is so well-organized so records are easy to find. That's rare in used selections, I've found. The collection of 45s is incredible. I didn't take advantage of the listening area, but I might next time. I left today after spending $175 for 24 records -- an excellent mix of new LPs, used LPs, 12" singles, and 45s. I'm looking forward to coming back once a month or so to see what new treasures I can find.

2nd & Charles is located among the stores of the Centre at Hagerstown. It was previously a Borders…read moreand its neighboring stores include Marshalls and HomeGoods. This store is supposed to be one of the smallest in the chain, but doesn't show it. Large selection of books, comics, DVD/Blu-ray's, and toys/collectables. If you don't know about 2nd & Charles, most of the items are used trade-ins from other customers, so you can never be sure what will be in stock. We had several questions about prices of items behind the counter which were quickly answered and the employees were helpful. Had a good selection of Manga but a smaller selection of Anime DVD/Blu-ray's. A large selection of comic longboxes were available, but per other 2nd & Charles their organization was not the best. Overall, store was clean and organized with an on-par selection of items compared to other stores. I would return here again.

Years ago I bought several CDs here, two of which were hard to find at that point. More recently I bought two original pressings of vinyl records I was looking for.

They also have analog audio equipment and vintage record players for sale, which is incredibly unique. They maintenance those things themselves. For instance, I purchased a stacking record player that had some audio issues, and I just had to bring it back in to get the problem fixed. Would go every day if it was close!

It was so cozy and everything is well priced, which I appreciate as a deal seeker.
