Their rock/r&b section was pretty big but majority of the records were sorted by artist which made it easy to browse. I ended up spending a decent amount of time in the store because I kept finding albums that I rarely find anywhere else. Prices are generally in line with what you'd find online, but if you catch one of their sales, you can score some great deals. The cashier was also incredibly friendly. Love my new tote bag!

You could definitely stop by for some crate digging and then walk around all the other shops in the area as well.

Had some Interesting Beatles collections that were begging me to drop large sums of money, but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Staff if helpful in a funky record store sort of way.

Very hard to find business owners treat their customers the way these gentlemen do. sometimes I will come to their store and if I can't find what I'm looking for they have no problem doing everything they can to help me out. maybe the people that had a bad experience with them was a communication problem on the customer side. I will always be a loyal customer to Variety Records.

We spent a little over an hour exploring all the different sections. It's a huge store. At front you can see new releases, foreign films, and award movies. Further in there is a whole kids section filled with nostalgic movies. They had a tv show section, films divided by actor/actress starring in them, along with genres like drama, comedy, horror, and more. I love the amount of memorabilia in the space! It was such an inspirational spot to go too. There are so many movies I want to watch now. Everything felt reasonably priced. I also loved the way the store was organized. While we didn't interact with anyone who worked there, overhearing their convos, they seemed so passionate about movie. If I needed anything, I'm sure they would've been super kind and helpful. I loved Movie Madness. This was one of my favorite stops in Portland.

Prices seem fair and you can find some cool vinyl but you are gonna spend some time digging through crates on the ground, there is one listening station available and works and sounds good enough to sample what you find.

The Owner "RILEY" is a Super Nice Guy, and he is Extremely knowledgeable about Music and Movies. JOEL is his brother and is the Owner as well. Their prices on DVD (and some Blueray) movies are as low a $1, though most of his movies are fairly priced, and are Sequenced in "Alphabetical" order. He has a Expansive VARIETY of ALBUMS as well. He even has Music CDS !, and "Hard to Find" Albums, DVDS, CDS and Blu-rays. RILEY (who I met) is just a REALLY GOOD GUY ! He is a "RARE BREED" when it comes to Business Owners these days. Because ALL that they think of is MONEY and are "GREEDY" ! Everybody that came to the Store left HAPPY, with plenty of "Good Finds". While I was there (for Hours) looking through their DVD Selection, I heard EVERYONE telling RILEY how much they Enjoyed his store. This place is a "GEM" ! I Really don't want to share this place, because it's a "Treasure-Trove"...But I will ! THIS PLACE IS "GOLD" !
