    Dope spot if you are looking for hardcore and punk rock records. You don't see too many shops anymore specializing in this kind of selection but a unique find amongst the record stores on Melrose. Just know that if you are looking for anything other than punk records, then this isn't the shop for you. The coolest part was they have a section for local LA punk groups.

    I thought it was a good space for events here, especially related to Kpop. We came at a chill time…read moreperiod as the event was close to ending but the staff were very friendly still with greeting. I was happy getting a freebie postcard and was able to enjoy taking photos inside of the space with the photozones on the walls. Some things that stood out to me was seeing that they're strict on no outside food or drinks, and when I looked at the food and snacks sold, it was mostly Korean ramen or some ice cups, so the vibes here are meant to be very casual convenience-store hangout type. I also saw that the huge floor space also holds dances so that's pretty cool!! I found an album I really wanted to buy and thought it was cool to find exclusive merch from the store branch too from K-pop groups, especially Ateez. It seems like the albums and merch sold are recent (releases from same year or previous year) and aren't oversupplied with past old albums/merch like other kpop stores. All in all, I wouldn't mind visiting here again!!

I know that there are limited time giveaways at the start/opening, but I didn't really care to get them as I had tickets already. I saw online how it was incredibly packed and busy at the start due to the giveaways. Walking in, we were handed a free exclusive signed postcard from a random artist of the lineup. Some fans were waiting to see who'd you get in hopes of trading. The store itself is big and I enjoy the high ceiling as it wasn't too stuffy inside. The kpop albums sold wasn't bad; some groups were more highlighted than others but it's worth noting that there were exclusive hello82 merch which was nice. I bought a signed album for a good price ($23) and felt content. I think this store is good for the kpop community and helps foster cool things. I enjoy watching the youtube channel too. Past cupsleeve events are sold here too and there's also korean convenience food snacks/ramen station sold and plenty of tables to eat at while listening to kpop. Overall I had a pleasant experience but I do wish there were actually more merch from the artists performing at the actual event that's being advertised!

    This is the most grand Barnes and Noble I had ever seen, like woah…read more I was in so much awe, like how gorgeous is this store, I love my local Barnes and Noble but comparing it to the one at the Grove is impossible. I did feel a little overwhelmed because there was just so much and I felt a little rushed so I just wandered around a bit. Everyone was pretty friendly and the store was so open and welcoming. They had so many options, from books to magazines, special editions, little trinkets, we always need those and movies. This location hosts a lot of the book signings and it was so cool to finally get to see the store. Definitely need another trip to LA and actually just spend hours here, the ac was great and I like be surrounded by so many of my favorite books.

    I feel compelled to address customer service. Specifically addressing the balding white dude with…read moreglasses with the crap attitude. If I'm spending over $150 in books and games you better validate my parking ticket and we'll get to what happened: I was super nice as I always am towards people who are working. When I said, "oh I need to validate" and his response was, "I'll take a look at that" He looks at the ticket, judges it and then says, "sorry we don't validate if it's over two hours" Luckily in this case...the person I came with arrived the same time I did and was making a purchase next to me, and I asked, "why did she validate his?" These employees looked stopped in their tracks. This was discrimination. He said to me, "oh ummm well it might not work" and I said, "let's see..." He scanned the ticket and it said, "validated" I looked at him and said "hmm looks like that worked..." He didn't apologize, he didn't say anything. He just stood there and looked like he got caught in his shitty customer service. I looked up policy on this and Barnes and Noble are supposed to validate NO MATTER WHAT as long as it's with purchase. THEY COVER UP TO TWO HOURS not "if it's over two hours we don't validate" EVEN AFTER SPENDING MONEY. If i come to the grove, eat, walk around, then shop at Barnes as my last stop because I do spend a lot of time in here because books are my passion then what the fuck does it matter if I'm over by ONE HOUR. "Sorry we can't validate" Validate my two hours, and let me pay for the remaining hours on my dime. Don't worry about if "it doesn't work" If this continues to happen then expect more bad reviews. And I'm getting names next time. Also this has happened three times. I've never made a scene before but the dude at the register just radicalized me. Even my sister who was next to me experiencing his customer service was like, "ew why are people like that. The girl next to him had no problem validating my husbands ticket but he had a problem validating yours" And that's what triggered me. That's what lead to this review.

He wasn't like that when I talk to him From my experience when I entered the store, he was just busy looking at the computer. What I did to past the time was browse the games I did saw a couple that I wanted and pick up three of them at the time so when I was ready to pay, I asked the guy if he takes Apple Pay he said yes Then I asked him questions about the Nintendo 64 games for super smash Bros and super Mario 64 he said those are not real. Those are authentic, I told him the games I wanted for transformers, he was about to go to a different section that I didn't found it at so when I realize what he was doing I told him not there and then I showed him where I found it and then yeah so I'm not sure what's up with that Same thing for the 360s and the PlayStation 2 games until I showed them where it was. I guess it might. He has a bad memory of where it is. I'm not sure. I saw more of luck review and if it is true that he is not passion and that depress then yeah you're not wrong. Like what's the whole point of working there if your don't like gaming but when I first saw him and when I asked him the question, he didn't look depressed. He look normal Besides that him repeating for the games and asking if it's yours, that's crazy like one he probably doesn't see the price on the cover or two. He has a very bad memory. But damn, that's crazy way different from my experience when I went there for the first time I guess go on your own risk or don't go For me, the only reason I went here is because I was far away from home and I was gonna go to Ross and I want to look at the area they have any retro games around the area and I saw this location so like why not and headed at that location the price is iffy, but I mean for the games they had the box I can't complain And since he's not passionate for the games, I mean, I don't really care. I just want the games I grew up with and dip Ahh and the only reason I am re-editing my review is because I saw the notification of seeing 266 people from 5 days ago and 139 people seeing my review now witch is the first and never expected anyone reading my review Hope it's help

    Clean, smells good and staff extremely helpful and nice. Definitely coming back to get more stuff!read more

    Outstanding Service and Support at Ahead Stereo…read more I purchased my McIntosh turntable from Ahead Stereo and recently ran into an issue with my stylus. I reached out to Brian, and he immediately went above and beyond--contacting McIntosh on my behalf, walking me through the options, and ultimately helping me get back up and running. What stood out most wasn't just the solution, but the care and integrity Brian showed throughout the process. He didn't treat me like just another transaction, he treated me like a valued customer. That kind of support is rare, and it's exactly why I'll keep coming back to Ahead Stereo. If you're into high-end audio and want a dealer who stands by their customers, this is the place.

Today during my visit to ahead stereo I was looking for an education in creating a future home stereo system, I'm not up to date on all the options, but have a general idea of what I'm trying to achieve. These folks seemed interested in selling me a consultation for a couple hundred dollars rather than trust helping me and winning my trust, it seemed they were concerned if the helped me understand what would be a good solution I would leave the store and buy online. That was not the plan and once I figure out what I'm looking for I'll probably be back to buy local, as I'm a big supporter of that concept. My suggestion in the future is customer comes first, build the trust and loyalty will follow.
