This is an absolutely lovely little record store. It is larger inside than it looks, very clean,…read moreand the man and woman working here were super nice and helpful. They sell vinyl record albums, CDs, and cassettes. They have every genre you can possibly imagine. The prices were very good, reasonable and fair. We ended up buying a CD I have been looking for, a vinyl picture disc for my husband, and a brand new album (vinyl) that had been released about a year ago. My husband even found an album in perfect condition that he had been wanting in the one dollar bin. This was a bit of a drive from where we live, but it was beautiful scenery and it was totally worth driving here. I highly recommend if you are looking for music. Tip: parking can be found on the side of the little strip mall they are located in OR you can drive all the way around to the back and enter in the store at the rear. Just be careful and avoid the potholes.

It's a small shop right on the street, so you have to be on the lookout, otherwise you could miss it. I got there right around the time they opened and was greeted by Ronnie and Beth. Immediately when you walk in, they've got two units of $1 records with a lot of good stuff to browse through. The overall selection is not as vast as other stores in the Charlotte area, but still stocked with quality vinyl. The music in the store changes every few minutes, and that's because they clean all of their records (except the $1 choices) and test them before pricing them and putting them out for sale. If you're looking for a shop that may have some reasonably priced gems that haven't been picked through, definitely check these guys out!

On a Thursday around noon, there were a couple tables occupied, so not full by any means, which was surprising given the perfect weather.

However, it had a different tag on the back that said 11.99. The dvd only goes for 8 dollars on eBay so I was a bit confused, especially considering it was a used box set and the dvds had scratches on them. I went to the front to see if they could mark it down and they said that they couldn't and that the old tag didn't matter. Before leaving I saw the associate I was speaking to rip off the old tag before putting it back on the shelf. This store is a scam, support local used media shops.

I had been looking to build my collection of Mac Miller's music, and I was successful - they had almost all his albums, I was pleasantly surprised! Stop by here if you are looking to buy new or used vinyls, or if you're looking to get rid of some older ones. Thank you for a great experience!
