And for vinyl they've got local artists, popular music and old vintage stuff as well! They also have a cool corner with art in the back and in the first room they have a bunch of cool art in drawers. They allow local artists to each have a drawer for their work and I just think that's SO cool!! They're queer friendly and definitely feel like a safe place! At one time had a donation box for menstrual products but someone destroyed it and I'm not sure if it's still there but they're just a great small business in Irvington that really adds so much to our community!

I purchased four vinyl records from The Toy Pit on September 6, and unfortunately, the experience…read morehas been extremely disappointing. After the purchase, I discovered that the records I received appear to be counterfeit rather than legitimate releases. I contacted the store to try to resolve the issue, but they refused to provide any type of refund or stand behind the products they sold me. Considering how highly priced many of the items in this store are, I find it unacceptable that a customer can spend their money there, discover there is a serious issue with the authenticity of the merchandise, and then be left with no resolution. At this point, I will be disputing the charge with my bank. The entire situation has been handled very unprofessionally, and based on my experience, I would strongly recommend verifying the authenticity of anything you purchase here before spending your money.

We had other plans in the plaza on March 11th where The Exchange is located, but my husband saw…read morethem and our plans quickly changed. My hubby was in heaven looking around and told me I am officially in charge of making yelp use a 6 star system so I can give them 6 stars. They have wall to wall and several aisles stocked full of product. They even have a buy 2 items under $3 get the 3rd item under $3 free. They have loads of dvds/blurays, cds, some books/manga, old and new games and systems, and some awesome collectibles. The employees definitely were the cherry on top. He was telling us about the setup of the store, deals the have and about their trade in policies (which are the states policy and super intense to stop stolen items from being sold. They even do fingerprints). My husband is officially obsessed with this store and if he could live here he would. We had to go back to the hotel to grab a game to trade in and on the way back he said "I love this place. I know we aren't there but I'm going to talk like we are because my soul is there". I have no doubts we will be back. We ended up getting a few different things and we were pleased with everything.

The Exchange is located in a small strip mall and has a fair amount of parking. I primarily went in…read moreto check out their CD section, which was a pretty good selection. What was even better was their variety of vinyl, and I ended up purchasing two LPs and one CD. Prices for either medium were either reasonable for used or overpriced, not really in the middle. A lot of their collection, including the CDs, is behind glass, which makes it not as easy for a shopper to quickly check out the inventory before buying.

Updating my review of Luna Music and bumping it up from four stars to five. This is because a) Luna…read moredeserves all five stars; and b) it's been nine (!!) years since my last review. In my last review, I think I complained about being a tired mom with macaroni and cheese stains on my pants. Well, nine years later, I'm still a mom but fortunately less tired, the stains on my pants are from red wine and vegan tzatziki, and the kids I made macaroni and cheese for have grown up and are very interested in music. And they ask me to take them to Luna Music. I'm always happy to oblige. My oldest kid love Luna Music because he can find albums for the bands that he listens to. Bands and artists that are not on my radar at all (Blood Orange? Anyone, anyone? Bueller?), but he loves them, and it makes him happy to find them here in vinyl. Luna has a lot of new music on vinyl. This is the place to visit in Indianapolis if you're looking for any kind of new music. They are on top of it. In fact, I subscribe to their weekly newsletter just to keep abreast of the new music that drops every week. Luna Music keeps me young and able to relate to my children, who have astounding musical taste for their age. Luna skews toward records, but they also have a smaller selection of used CDs, as well as a collection of used cassette tapes that are smaller still. You can also find zines, local artwork, greeting cards, record players and other fun things. The people who work here are super friendly and not at all snobby. There are no Jack-Black-from-High-Fidelity people here!

I did also find some jewelry and a couple of purses. The place has everything from vintage or antique furniture (victorian, mid-century etc) to books, wonky art pieces..too much. Service is good and while there aren't a lot of people around in the way of employees, the cashiers are good and there is an area where you can leave things you want to avoid carrying them around. I believe there are people around to help load heavy items, but I'm not sure of those details. Value varies greatly. Some things are very reasonably priced and others seem outrageously expensive to me, but I guess it depends on supply and demand.

I decided to hang out for a bit this lazy Sunday, and I finally got a chance to make a return visit…read moreto Indy CD & Vinyl, an indie record store with a specialty in vinyl that is easily one of the top, if not the top, in Central Indiana. Officially, Indy CD & Vinyl is Indiana's largest independent record store. They're a member of Coalition of Independent Music Stores and are locally owned, female-owned, latin-owned, and veteran owned. They sell both new and used CDs and vinyl (and i even saw a few 8-tracks, books, and more). They have always been known as supportive of the community and local artists whether buying them outright or selling on consignment. As nearly everyone knows, parking in Broad Ripple is a bit of a clusterf*** these days, though there's street parking (metered) and a few parking lots (paid). Sundays, the meters are free. Accessible parking is around in various lots or at meters, though not directly in front of the store. Broad Ripple Avenue stores are about 50/50 in terms of access, but I'm pleased to report that Indy CD & Vinyl is accessible for the most part. There's two sides to the store - one side with rows and rows of vinyl (and other items) that's narrow but workable. The other side is 808, a sort of in-store performance/event space that also has a variety of other items for sale and a few pinball machines. The people here are friendly and helpful. Rick Zeigler started the store in 1993 in Salt Lake City, though in 2001 he moved to its current spot (NOTE: I'm thinking he didn't call it Indy CD & Vinyl in Salt Lake, but I could be wrong! Ha.). In 2013, Zeigler sold the store to long-time store manager Anne Skinner and her husband. They continue to own it. Indy CD & Vinyl has all genres. I was pleased to see several John Hiatt releases (sadly, no Lilly Hiatt). They also carry turntables, needles, cartridges, accessories, etc. They also have a collectible section for music. I saw a Peanuts endcap that just left me in awe. As near as I can tell, they only purchase used vinyl. Honestly, I'd forgotten how much I love this place. Great vibes, great selection, great service, and just a lot of fun. Because I am a performer, I do have to note that the 808 stage is not wheelchair friendly (sad face), but I'm sticking with the 5-star because, if I'm being honest, far too many stages are not wheelchair friendly. Minor quibble for one of Central Indiana's shining stars.

Indy CD and Vinyl is like the old-school record stores I used to visit in my teens and 20s, oh so…read moremany years ago when I would actually purchase CDs and tapes. Except now, everything old is new again, and this record store actually has more records than anything else. So if you are a record collector, this is your place. They have new and used records, as well as quite a lot of CDs, cassettes, used DVDs, comic books and some records players and headphones for sale. It was my oldest son's idea to visit, because he loves record stores, and is proving to have impeccable taste in music. (He gets it from his mom.) He loves rap and hip-hop the most, and was a little disappointed that there weren't more albums by his favorite artists. I told him that I think album collecting tends to skew more toward rock and pop listeners, and people who listen to rap and hip-hop listen more digitally. That's my theory, but in any case, you should know that the hip-hop section is small. But the rock and pop section is large. This record store is a decent size, and in fact, there's a sign outside that says that they will soon be expanding. My son thought that the store was huge, but bless his ignorant heart: He didn't grow up going to the country's greatest record store, Amoeba Records in Hollywood, like I did. This is no Amoeba, but there's no place like Amoeba, and for a record store in central Indiana, Indy CD and Vinyl is really great. Two neat things about Indy CD and Vinyl: They have video games and pinball machines that you can play at the back of the store (for a couple of quarters). They also have a listening station, where you can scan the barcode of an album and listen to it before you buy it. It wasn't working when we visited, but that's cool that they offer that. No one in my household actually owns a record player, CD player or cassette player, so our visit was merely to look around and imagine the things we would buy if we had analog media players. My son did get a Tyler The Creator poster, though, so he was happy.

I just happened upon this store when I was walking around aimlessly at the mall. It's located right by Saks Fifth Avenue, at the end of the mall, just chillin' innocuously, all by itself. My sister collects vinyl, so I pawed through their selection to try to find some sick rekkids for her. I did find quite a few, actually, and they were priced right (anywhere from $1 to $10). The selection runs the gamut from Supertramp to Leonard Cohen to Perry Como. There are records for everyone here! They also sell locally made candles and smudge sticks, for all your burning needs.

Many times they have helped add to a collection by offering suggestions and remembering us when we came in. Though we don't always buy something we always learn something.

Parking can be utilized on either side of the building. You will have to look for it the first time but it is easy if you look for the grey building next to Liter House.
