I particularly like this record store more than Redwood because of the large variety of music genres.

Love the charm this place has and they are able to cater to everyone's kind of music. Still giving niche, but up to date as well!

They are located right in the heart of the Santa Cruz Shopping District on Pacific Avenue. So, they are easy to find.

Items like their jewelry and small things like that are keep in glass cases, so they are easy to look at and study. And, of course, they will take them out for you if you want to analyze them closer. Plus, they have all kind of others things. A never-ending, always changing variety of all kinds of antique items. One of the fun things that I saw at this shop on my last visit was they had a great collection of Asia orientated magazines from the 1950s in excellent condition. You never known what you will find!

I've always loved shopping at Grey Bears, which is why this experience was so upsetting…read more Today I was walking toward the outdoor rug section with a basket full of items when a staff member stopped me and told me I had to bring my items to the front before continuing. What felt uncomfortable is that there were several other customers walking around with items from the main store, yet I was the only one singled out. When I brought my items up to the register, a different employee initially rang them up, then paused after the same women from before whispered something to her. She then told me they were adding a few dollars to several items because they were "priced too low."!! I was in shock. These items were already on the sales floor at the marked prices, and I did not see this happen to any other customers. The entire interaction felt unfair and targeted, and I left feeling embarrassed and uncomfortable. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but being singled out and then charged more than the posted prices shook my trust. I've always enjoyed this store, but this experience made me feel unwelcome, and unfortunately I'm not sure I'll be able to shop here again.

Looked and looked and couldn't find a mirror. I asked a worker, Gina, where I could find a mirror. Guess what? THEY DON'T HAVE ONE SINGLE MIRROR IN THE STORE...WTH??!!! WEIRD. Went to go look for a donated mirror to help but nope they didn't have one. I ended up propping my phone on a shelf to see myself. BTW, Gina was really friendly and tried helping me. The gentleman at the counter (I did find a cute sweater) was just as friendly. Won't be going out of my way to come back to this location. Oh and and they have a new policy where you can return items within 7 days BUT only to the same location...HUH?! Nevermind.

I've dropped off donations at this location countless times over the years, and this was the first time I had someone walk up to my car and offer to help me unload my donations and kindly point me to the correct bins for where to place things (electronics, household goods, clothes, bags, shoes, etc). He also asked if I wanted my bags back and if I needed a donation receipt. The last time I donated items here, there was a guy working who practically screamed at me "No hangers!" to which I responded, "Sorry, I didn't know." - I put the bag of hangers back in my car but he definitely didn't need to yell angrily. So this visit was 100 times better, thanks to Deshawn. Goodwill, I hope you acknowledge the great and kind employee he is! Friendly tip: I had fragile wine glasses, pint glasses, and ceramic mugs to donate and I wrapped each item in packaging paper and bubble wrap and placed them in an open box. I was told this was a great way to donate fragile items so they don't break. The back parking lot where the donation drop off is located can get tricky to drive in/out of if there are more than few cars back there. It's basically a small loop with about 6 spots in the center. And when people are walking back and forth from their cars and the donation bins and cars are trying to exit or pull in, it can get dicey so a little patience will help!

Last but not least I found this awesome pair of pony hair, leopard shoes. They will go great with any outfit. In my opinion, I got a very good deal. I spent about $30 for everything.
