Id give negative stars but they get ONE for having one 12inch single actually priced accordingly!

He carefully cleaned each record with three machines. Being the perfectionist he is, I watched him take a tiny piece of styrofoam, and drop it on the record, just to assure it effortlessly slid off with no static. He then slides each spotless record into a new sleeve, then takes the entire album cover, and places it into a new plastic sleeve. He then tells me it's to assure that both record, and album cover stay in optimal condition long-term.

He says he doesn't do one record, he does batches of nine. I told him I'm not interested in doing a batch of nine but I will pay him whatever it cost for a batch of nine or whatever just to clean this ONE record. Literally ready to pay whatever with no problem. Apparently money wasn't talking in this situation because he still doesn't care for or answer my concern or offer his service but proceeds to ask me 21 questions about my WHOLE collection (like he's trying to clean all of my records to get more money) and is more concerned with retaining me as a returning customer before I even paid a dime. He even asks me how do I clean all my records? What tools do I use? Why is that your concern? I'm calling to pay YOU for a service to clean ONE record ‍ After being annoyed & pitched all these different things for 10 minutes straight which I didn't want and kept telling him that, I proceeded to just say I'll send you nine records if you really want just so I can get this one record cleaned to which he replies now he's scared to work with me because I "sound aggressive" & he doesn't want any problems?

This is probably the best records store in the whole continental United States if not the world. The inventory is all over the place and I mean literally, an Elmo Christmas album could be mixed in the blues section here, but that's not the point. The best part had been the people, the owner Eleni had been so helpful playing music for us making sure we try out different things and get to know older music that she thought we would enjoy based on the stuff we were looking for. She had also guided us around the store and even played some records that we had chosen to make sure we TRULY like them, asking us 3 times if we are sure to get that specific records. Once we were all ready to pay and get out by the time it was "closing" she was not only willing to guide us around for another 2-4 hours but take us out for DINNER as she was worried about us getting home safe on a cold night(-22 Celsius). After we politely declined both of those offers from the angel that this lady is. She then told us some of her life story and the short version of it is, it's really really interesting. But at the end of the night asked if me and my boyfriend were looking to get married and after we said yes , she let us keep the 7 records we grabbed for free.

I've been a customer of Eleni's at Deja Vu Records for years, long before records/vinyl became fashionable again in the last few years. This place is different as others have noted in their reviews. There are records everywhere, in racks, and boxes. Allow plenty of time to search for what you're looking for (and what you didn't know you needed until you stumble upon it) and of course Eleni is charming and has this amazing ability to help you find stuff, she often knows exactly where certain records are, in what might otherwise seem chaos! There are no price labels, but when you've collected a pile, Eleni will go through it and add things up. You'll likely be happy with how fair her prices are, the more you buy the better the deal. Bring cash or a cheque to pay, she doesn't accept credit cards! Five stars PLUS! read more

I love this store! The fact that there are piles and boxes all over make it that much more fun. The "hunt" is what we enjoy right? Eleni is without a doubt the best. She looks all over the store for you, is a bundle of energy and can lift heavier boxes than most 20 year old males. To see that is worth the price admission. Now to records. Deja Vu has a fantastic selection that is always changing. Each time I go in there are new finds and Eleni is quick to remind me that more are coming. That way when I get in my car I am already thinking of when I can get back. Pricing is fantastic! All vinyl junkies need to go here. read more

hello, today is Saturday, 10th of Feb, 2018 and I went to Deja Vu with about 130 80's CD's. The owner was kind and looked over my collection (Pink Floyd, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Alan Parsons, Roxy Music, Queen, Whitney Houston, Moody Blues, a bulk of dance music, etc). I asked for price based on previous sale of CD's to a place in Cambridge. The owner came back with a much higher price, saying that I was undervaluing the collection. I left very happy, getting rid of the CD's and being treated fairly and respectfully. Please consider stopping by. read more

Throughout Dante's ascension of the spheres of Paridiso, he could make out the faint, but ever-growing stronger, voice of angels singing 'Ave Maria'; Deja Vu Records is a little bit like that experience. The owner, Elain, is like your Beatrice, guiding you through the intoxicating shoppe, overflowing with the presence and sounds of yet-to-be-played records, cds, and dvds. Please give yourself a couple hours and some spending money (you wont spend more than $50) and relish the temporary, blissful escape from hectic life. read more

I made my first trip to Deja Vu today, and I'm definitely going back. Good selection of 60s and 70s rock. Prices were amazing. I've recently started record collecting, and the prices for what I bought are so much better than at other record shops. I bought six records for $25 (Dylan, Jeff Beck, Guess Who, Clapton, Elvis). I'm also a big fan of Listen Up! in Natick, but the prices for what I bought here.. can't beat it. Store owner very helpful in locating records I would be interested in. read more

I go in almost once a week. If you are looking to start a record collection, or add some cool finds to your existing collection, this is the best place to do it. Prices are so reasonable and records are usually in great condition. I've found records I'm looking for at big chains but I know I'll get a better deal and better customer service from Deja Vu. It's the only place I shop now for records. My collection has doubled this summer and It didn't break the bank either. Check it out!!! read more

A great little record shop. I went in wanting a couple of CDs for a long drive. I didn't have any cash and tried to pay with a card. The owner said she didn't take cards but encouraged me to take the CDs and pay her next time I passed through town. I said I wasn't from the area and didn't know when I would be back. She said that was fine and sent me off with the CDs. Just an incredibly generous person with a wonderful store, the kind there are all too few of today. read more
