I was in town for work and had some time to kill before a meeting so I stopped by this shop which…read morehad great reviews. It definitely lived up to expectations. Record stores can sometimes feel overwhelming because there are so many categories and genres. They had a big selection with stuff for every price point. Reprints and originals. The guys working the shop just gave off a passion for music. This whole place just felt like a celebration of music. The guys there were super helping in helping me track down a record I was looking for while also providing some recommendations based on what I'm currently listening to. Never felt pressured. Never felt intimidated. It felt welcoming and cool. I plan on stopping by every time I'm in town and you should too.

The moment I walked in here I was mesmerized, this place is covered in all kinds of music. Although…read morethe place is small, it has everything a vinyl lover can ask for. The selection is very good and the man working there was very nice and helpful, the price range is really depending on what record you want, but from what I found, it was an excellent price. There are cheaper bins of records so that is convenient too. Would definitely recommend for any music fan in all kinds of genres

Great spot for digging and discovering something new.

First time purchasing a few Records from Vinyl Junkies…read more. Had them shipped to Iowa, Great price & they shipped them in a mighty mailer for extra protection and they arrived in great condition within a reasonable timeframe.. However incurred a minor issue at no fault to the store, inner sleeves were missing, this was a known issue from the record producer on this particular release, worked with Jules at Vinyl Junkies and she worked diligently with their supplier to make things right, took a bit but she got it done and shipped them right away free of charge and in perfect condition.. If you're looking for great service on your next vinyl purchase look no further, these guys and gals are great and they stand by what they sell.. Thanks Vinyl Junkies! & Thank you Jules for completing my album's.. ~ Jason

This is a small and funky vinyl shop with a fair amount of used CDs. In fact, they have more used…read moreCDs here than just about anywhere else I have ever seen, other than at Amoeba in Los Angeles. They also have old cassette tapes, too, if you are a weirdo and a masochist. There are three rooms to explore and a little courtyard in between them all. I have to believe this space was a coffee house or something like that in a different life. The vinyl record collection is the emphasis, as it should be, and it is well-organized. There is some organization to some of the CDs but many of them are just stacked here and there. That is ok. If you are a musical dinosaur like some of us, some of the fun is in the hunt itself. The only drag is parking. Street parking is your only option and it is rough. The good news is there are some cool other shops in this area to explore, like books, beer, food, etc. Well worth a visit for music fans.

Vibes: Downtown San Diego, not too far away Padres Ballpark and the library. However it is in a grit and grind area so make sure to be alert. The spot itself is pretty cool however pretty small. Just an alley of records and some music in the background. Nothing too flashy. Overall: 4 Stars. Great selections and good prices. Best wishes to Caleb and the Normal Records team. Looking forward to my next record hunt! TL;DR Tips: *Check their website for updates!

Based off the collection they seem to focus in soul, funk, r&b, and hip hop, but you can find pretty much every genre of music here. They have a price range for every budget including some rare hard to find gems to $2 records. I had fun digging here and the staff was friendly and helpful. Whenever I travel it is my mission to find a local record shop and support and you should put Beat Box on your list during your next visit to San Diego. Send me a DM and I can always make recommendations for any city. Enjoy!!
