Inside there are about 24 drawers with vinyls but NO order, NO specific category, but they add the new arrivals every few hours. The vinyls have small white labels with the date of entering the store and the price. Inside the store only the PROMO drawer has vinyls at 0,50 euro. The prices of vinyls from the other drawers are from 1 euro to 10 euro (most are over 3 euro), but there are only used vinyls, most of them with classical music (walses, opera, concerts) or french music. I spent few hours today browsing EVERY vinyl and I can say there are few american vinyls, most french or french edition or french music. I was lucky to find Sam Brown "Stop" single and Sandra "Maria Magdalena" single. There is also another section with 45 RPM singles at 1 euro piece. I could see a clerk labeling the fresh-received vinyls with a label gun. He brought the vinyls every hour and put them in the "NEW ARRIVALS" box. The CDs are sealed with some transparent tape and there was a tentative of alphabetical order (you could see some names, letters) but the chaos was the best word to descriebe that area. The plastic bags for the vinyls/books/etc are free :D

On the first floor are the records ... There is little space, it is not very large. Finding an album is a bit difficult for reduced space and the amount in each box.

I was here in 2016 but I will return in this 2023, maybe I can add more things.

As far as record stores are concerned, this one gets a passing grade from me. However, I found the…read moreoverall set up to be incredibly cramped and not to be what I expected from the Parisian record store. Basically, there are two floors when you walk in. The bottom filled with equipment, the top stacked with vinyl. I'm not a big guy, but even for someone like me, it was difficult to maneuver through the maze. Of course, I perked up when I came across a rather large selections of the classics: Beatles, Stones, Neil Young, Bowie, etc. Even a few rarities found their way into my rolodex. But for the pressings, the prices didn't add up. I made my way to the contemporary section to find Foo Fighters, Soundgarden and Stone Temple Pilots. There just wasn't enough to hook me in. Overall, the experience was more of an inconvenience because of the tight space and disorganized set up. There were definitely some good finds, but to me it really wasn't worth my time and effort.

Great record store in Paris, France!…read more My wife and I were seeking out a few good record stores in Paris and ended up here. It's a good size store with a lot of stock and selection. My French is beginner level at best, so I didn't mingle with the staff very much, but I am sure they would have been helpful if I had needed assistance, as pretty much everywhere we went the French people were very friendly and kind. The store is a bit unusual in that it has two store fronts. Pretty cool and unique. The store has a really cool vibe and I would urge you to stop in and pay them a visit should you ever be in The City Of Lights! Then after you shop here, go get some Macarons!

Prices were from 3 euro above. Some boxes were on the floor and was uncomfortable to browse them because you would occupy the area/isle and the space was tiny. This is very close to Boulinier (9 minutes walking).

The shop opened in the 50s by an American called George Whitman and he initially named it Le Mistral. I believe the name changed in the 60s to what we know it as today. As a fan of literature, Shakespeare and Company is like Mecca. The Holy Grail, if you will. Whether you stick downstairs where it gets busy or upstairs where it's for more of a library feel, it's simply a magical experience. An experience that transcends you into the pages of your favorite novel or book of poetry. A timeless, nostalgic, and electric adventure awaits you.

I'm docking a star since this place has gotten so incredibly popular. On the day that I visited, there was a giant line just to get inside. It does move quickly, but it was pretty crazy inside to navigate with so many people. I spent most of my time with my kids, reading them books. They had a nice selection in the back and a place to sit down. I didn't really get much of a chance to explore the full space. They ended up closing early the day I visited, and they start by closing the top floor first. So I mainly explored the ground level. I'd love to come back. But would prefer to find a day or time that wasn't so hectic. My partner bought a book and the line stretched through the entire store.
