    Vintage and new stuff from Rasputin's Music.
    Annette C.

    This is a huge Thrift store and Music store combo. There is a robust selection of music offered in different forms (CD's/Vinyl/Cassette/VHS). Their book selection is also very broad and well organized. They had decent clothes with something for everyone, and even a small section with New Clothes. The value for what they offer is pretty good for today's economy, especially since we've noticed other thrift store prices going up recently. You can also bring in your gently used clothes, books, and music to sell to them, which can be a satisfying way to recycle for some folks. The vibe is very laid back, and it almost feels a little bit like you stepped back into the 90's, however, the staff was very tight lipped, solemn and unsmiling, and for a moment I thought we were at the SF Ballet.

    VHS section.

    Mad Monk/Rasputin's is where I began collecting vinyl records, so it holds a comforting place in my heart, however throughout the years this place has been going down hill. The prices are reasonable for the most part, and they have a wide selection, though it seems they cater to pop fans the most. The clothing is really so-so, if you're looking the men's section, like genuinely it looks genuinely "eh.." One thing I do not like about the store was an interaction with an employee, they freaked out because I got hand sanitizer from their counter (which I do every time I go, even at other locations.) and the employee working freaked out, like I was stealing something. They began to rant on and on about not touching the hand sanitizer. That's one of the only negative customer experiences I've had, for the most part the staff is quite friendly! Another thing that bothers me about the store is the WiFi always being down, it's uncontrollable, I understand, but sometimes it feels like as soon as I go up to the register they tell me. Overall, I love Rasputin's, but it's hit or miss.

    Another line for RSD

    Overpriced, rude service, and snail-paced at the register. These kids clearly skipped the lessons from Tower Records' demise. Time to ditch brick-and-mortar for the convenience of online shopping.

    Staff gives me weird vibes. No one is happy there. If you're wondering why it smells gross in the clothes section:

    For whatever reason the store hours on Yelp is wrong. Hours in Photo are the actual store hours.

    So I noticed the customer service is horrible. The employees act like ppl you see on the streets. They need to work on their customer service skills. Another thing, selling music here is ridiculous. The amount they want to give you for at least a great condition set of physicals is atrocious.

    Rude weirdo hiding behind blank stare kid stole my pic so I can be childish too :)

    So apparently the idiots that abuse customer service employees reported my comment lol. Hi YELP I was definitely IN STORE PURCHASING VINYL That day! With a mask like a SMART PERSON. AND I SAID Great store. Lousy customers! They were very polite and helpful despite the disruption by the gross family refusing to wear masks... smh... appreciate that they take safety precautions and temperature checks for shoppers! I'd hate to get COVID-19 because some ignorant people can't follow rules. So glad they diffused that problem properly! Karens and Kens should just shop online... Besides that stupidity, I Found the Orville Peck vinyl I was looking for, GREAT shopping experience! #maskon ! STOP REMOVING POSTS BECAUSE PPL ARE CALLED OUT ON BS !! I live 15 min from this store!

    Zoom in on this picture and look what they say they say that they pay top cash it's a not true be my guest and try, you will see.

    Do they sell rather recent rap records? like 2012 and up?

    I don't know for sure, but they do have a very large number of good records and CDs. You should definitely go in there and check it out.

    The Birdsnest is hands down my favorite antique store. It's got such a fun vibe and offers so many…read moreinteresting and unique items to browse. They have one of the widest selections of colorful vintage glass including Blenko and Empoli decanters. Prices are incredibly fair and the staff are wonderful. They're currently doing some re-arranging in the shop and have opened an attic full of vintage clothing. There are also sections dedicated to books, records and toys. I could spend hours in here going through each section and it's a good thing I live far away or I'd be too tempted to keep adding to my glass collection. This is such a cool find in Modesto and super fun! Check them out and support local-you will be surprised and delighted by all the amazing vintage finds.

    Came to The Birdsnest a few months ago as the SO and I have been on a huge collecting spree. What…read moreare we collecting? Uranium glass! We were in Modesto and found this place through Yelp, and what a gem! Located off Orangeburg sitting on the corner of a strip mall, The Birdsnest is a hub of all things antique, vintage, ancient, OLD stuff for sale by different people. It's like a swap meet except the people aren't manning their sections because The Birdsnest handles it all. We came about 30 minutes before closing the first time, and didn't (couldn't) finish browsing. So we made a plan to revisit earlier so we could spend as much time looking at every knick and every knack displayed. We ended up walking away from a set of cups, and returned an hour later to grab them because they were too cool to give up. Whoever rang us up is super nice and approachable. There are even some stalls that are all on discount that I had a lot of fun looking through. Most of the items do seem reasonably priced too. Will definitely come back soon to see what's "new"!
