This is a great bookstore. I was surprised by how many new releases and books they had despite how…read moresmall it was. I can tell they curate the store very well. They had a lot of nice touches like a blind date with a bookshelf, color coded tape in the romance section that indicated how "spicy" a book was, and cute stationary and cards. The blind date with the books were so cute, 25$ each but they come with stickers and would be such a good gift for someone. The books were also reasonably priced and they had some discount shelves. I will definitely be coming back here.

This has been a go to record store for me since i was a teenager decades ago. Now there are not as…read moremany records stores left but this one in Eugene remains a solid favorite. There is a good selection of new and used discs and records at reasonable prices. Well the used stuff is a good price, new vinyl of course is whatever the sticker price is and that is all over the place. I don't get to downtown Eugene as often as i would like but the times I get to do I always find something that i did not know I needed. So glad this place is still around.

I got a response right away saying thank you for my understanding. If you have a late fee - just pay it. It might not be much but if everyone owed a dollar it would add up real.quick..

I need to see the box. Look at the pictures on the back and really weigh my options. That's why I love this place. I can rent games for all systems. I can rent DVDs and blue rays. I can choose from a physical selection instead of virtual. They have it all and its close to home. Hello instant gratification. The real bonus isn't the selection and gratifaction. It's the prices and customer service. The employees will bend over backwards for the customers. Reserving games and movies to make the customer happy. The prices are so affordable. Rent a game for $4 for 3 days. And for a dollar a day after that you can re rent for two days. This place is amazing. I can only hope that it weathers and stands 20 years from now.

It made me nauseous though. Other stores in town are far more reasonable. I took a crate to HoR, they only accepted half of what I brought and gave me more than twice as much! This place is a big old ripoff! At least for records. Not sure about the other components of this weird hybrid media purveyor. Won't be returning to buy or sell.

I bought my turntable there. Ive even bought a shirt and some earrings from there. I've always had a great experience and a great conversation with Bruce or his help every time I walk in. I'm Latino as well so I can assure everyone there's ABSOLUTELY NO inappropriate behavior happening (see a previous 1-star comment). Vortex has a great variety of genres, everything is well laid out and easy to navigate. I'm always asked if I need help or if I'm looking for something in particular. Bruce has even special ordered me a few records he didn't have in stock. This is a great local business (in operation since the early 90s!) to support and I 1000% recommend stopping by.

Can't see it coming from the North on Commercial.
