I once got a skid row tape there in like 2015, but today I just dug around a little bit and found a Montreal doom metal album, and a Canadian press of Days of Future's Past. Sick.

Grabbed some hard(ish) to find records at a great price and some very generously priced used records. Returned later in the week to see if a new release had come in, which it hadn't, so the owner recommended other close by record stores to check out to see if they had received any copies yet - so nice!

An absolutely wonderful record shop, with a very wide range of genres, and with excellent…read moreorganization. The prices are a little unpredictable, some things seemed way overpriced to me, yet other more unique and rare things seemed undervalued. So: lots of fun to look through, and some very high quality recordings, old, new, re-issues, and unique new vinyl. I only checked out classical and jazz, my loves, but the other sections seemed chock full and varied. Glad that stores like this still exist.

I was recently in Montreal so I made it a point to dig in nearly every record shop in town. Aux 33…read moreTours was pretty high on my list. The shop is located in a nice shopping and dining area of Mount Royal. The shop itself is very clean, well-lit, organized, easy to navigate. They had practically every genre with both new and used vinyl available. One of the biggest issues I had was the mixing of used and new records in the same bins. It just took longer too search through since I mainly was looking for used. Either way, I still walked away with some great stuff. Everything I looked at was in good shape. They had tons of new vinyl and reissues. Easily, the largest selection of new vinyl in Montreal. I also noticed tapes (fairly small) and CDs too. They also run a discogs account where some stuff on there may not be located on the main sales floor. The staff at the counter were friendly as well. I really liked Aux 33 Tours and would recommend checking it out!

I like to browse while I'm waiting for my bus. It's never too bust unless people are coming out of a show. They don't have deals on the english books or toys but they do on most everything else (mainly CD's and DVD's though). I really like this location because I'm familiar with it and when I receive a gift card as a gift, it's the best location.

Worst record experience in 25 years of collecting. Went check some records they had listed online…read moreat their shop, the person responsible of that was obviously completely stranger to the record world. First while I was checking the records (like 50 of them, I was planning of getting a lot), he stand behind my back the whole time making me feel pressured. I mentioned him that most of the records were warped, he didn't even know what that meant!!! And he couldn't care less. I asked if he played/checked them, and he gave me attitude. There is no turntable in the shop (in a record shop, sure, what for?), so I could only check the records with the naked eye, and as you know it sometimes hard to tell how badly warped it is until you actually play it. Turned out there was some bad ones once I played them. The next day I call him explaining him, asking him if he could take back the worse ones, for a refund or even a store credit, he he didn't want hear anything, not even for credit?! Then he complained again that I checked the records and that nobody forced me to buy them; worse argument for someone who doesn't have a record player around. We're talking about $100 records here, for a total of several hundreds. I wanted to return half of them, so it's a huge loss for me. Never judge a book by its cover? My ass! This douchey hipster probably spend more time at the gym and at those barber shops than in a shows or record conventions (None of my business but I don't understand why gay man won't come out of the closet nowadays, it's 2020, live your life buddy!). On block away west there is Aux 33 tours records store who will offer more references for better prices and WAY better customer service.

Don't expect to find the rarest treasures, but best bet is that you won't walk away empty handed. It's also got a decent, English used books section, which is a rarity in the Plateau. Friendly service, good music, and excellent prices. I would strongly recommend checking it out!
