Vintology gets better the more I visit. I'm paring down to sell my house and have been purging my…read morebookshelves and closets. They had a sign out that they buy, and I am selling! It has been a great experience so far with items I have really struggled to sell at yard sales and would otherwise go to donation. I originally went in with books because I thought they were just doing books and vinyl, but as I strolled the store waiting for them to look over my stuff I discovered a HUGE collection of CDs, DVDs, games, puzzles, kids books, and vintage toys as well. Of my original big box o'books, they bought about 75% for $25. I brought another short stack and they bought 3 of 8 for another $3. I came back with puzzles and games and a few DVDs and they bought the whole box for $16. They pay in cash, or you can get more in store credit (for the $25 box of books I could have had $30). I'm headed back with some TV show box sets and more books and will keep showing up as I find more stuff they might want to buy. GREAT strategy for them and a really great gift to the community as well - none of the other Longmont shops will pay cash for goods, you can only get store credit if anything at all. I've spent some time browsing the shelves and am not sure how they price books. I haven't been looking to buy but am interested in a couple and wish there was some sort of sticker or tag so I didn't have to ask about each one. I'll revise this review once I go in to purchase and learn what that side looks like; for now, it's a really great resource and I am very grateful they are here!

This was a fun find in Nederland…read more I've been a vinyl junkie for years and have slipped off the beaten path over the last few years. This was the necessary kick in the pants I needed. My wife and I were enjoying a nice walk around town and as soon as I saw a record store (in this tiny town, no less) I knew I had hit the jackpot. It's a small shop, though it packs a punch. They were undergoing some maneuvering and restocking on this particular day, so they have an even larger more robust collection than what I happened to see. I always let the record store guide me to ear porn enlightenment. I enjoy many genres of music, but when I visit a shop I read the room and let the music do the talking. Which led me to the reissued release of High On Fire's "Art of Self Defense' a cult classic in the stoner metal realm. Picked it up and bought it on the spot. The employee was super kind and down to earth. I spent a good chunk of time sifting through records, but knew my wife would kill me if I spent too much time in there. Now I get to add a wonderful record store to my Nederland excursions. Consider me a happy camper!

I found this place on my way back from a hike. It's the cutest record store. In a great location…read moreright in town, the not only have Vinyls, but they also have CDs, Taps, movies, and video games. It's the most inviting place. While I was flipping through records, the works where cleaning records, and talking music over a few beers. Like a scene from high fidelity. I enjoyed my stop in, found a record I was on the hunt for.

As an avid vinyl collector I made it a point to come in to Twist & Shout while visiting Denver from…read moreAustin, TX. Even as my second time here in the last 4 years I was happy to see Twist & Shout made MORE room for vinyl selections and browsing space. You still have other media too include DVDs (rare and hard to find selections), CDs, cassettes, and unique and local gifts and items. Take some time to look around here even up and down the walls. There is a really cool yellow Bruce Springsteen marquee in the sell/buy area. We spent over an hour here browsing and I walked out with two vinyl albums I had on my "Must-Have" list of analog music. Great and fair pricing on their "Used" records but to be honest all music is priced fairly. Really cool location with friendly service from the staff. If you have any questions on where things are or on the thing(s) you are looking for don't hesitate to ask! Also go over to the free publication area (at the exit) and check out all of the cool (and free) postcards from Twist & Shout along with flyers and freebies promoting any upcoming art, music shows, upcoming albums, and whatnot.

What a cool place to explore! 11000 square feet of it! First time here. The amount of vinyl…read morerecords they have at Twist & Shout is impressive. Along with CDs, DVDs, and merchandise. The staff is friendly and helpful to answer all of my questions. I reflected on all the cool vinyl albums that I've had in past and at Twist & Shout you can relive them & purchase them. Their selection is so vast that I believe you would find what you are looking for. I came to see if they wanted any of my old CDs. They did take some of them and I received store credit! Free parking is available in the back. Go check it out, you won't be disappointed! Who knew that they have been around since 1988 and it all began with 2 English teachers purchasing the store at an auction. Oh and check out the food trucks across the street on Saturday's before 1 pm!

Decided to stop by this used book store while on vacation. This place is huge. They have books,…read moreboard games, cds, video games, toys, and so much more. I was mostly concentrated in the book area where I found a few Star Trek books worth purchasing. Half off retail is not too bad. Beats paying full price. If I lived close to this book store I would definitely come back again.

Because Black and Read is tucked in and hard to see while driving along Wadsworth, I haven't had…read morethe chance to stop by until this past weekend. I didn't really have any expectations and decided to just check it out but ended up very surprised. First off, the service here is top notch. Since we walked in to when we left, the people here are the prime example of customer service. Great job guys! There are a ton of new and used puzzles, board games, records, etc here. The prices are in between a thrift store and places that only sell new stuff if that makes sense? Especially if you're looking for board games, you would really enjoy this place. There were so many here that I have never heard of before. I got a used puzzles here for $7! I look forward to coming back here and browsing around!

OMG!!!! Black and Read is nothing short of freaking amazing!!!!! Was that enough exclamation…read morepoints, I don't think so!! I'm going easy on you all. I love a hunt, so have time when you go in to this store, I am newer in town here so you all must be hearing about the one on Wadsworth and 80th everyone is speaking of. I am really not sure which one i was in, and could care less as I am in love with this store. The first time in, I was looking for a rare Butt Hole Surfers VHS video you really isn't available anymore. So I did not find it as I was surely not expecting to. I perused around for quite a while and found a a Screeching weasel video from the 80, an Mentors video and only because I knew them back in the day, The family "A Love Bizarre" album, and "A Child's Garden of Grass, A Pre- Legalization Comedy" album I have been looking for for well over 20 years. I peed my pants when I saw that!!( not really) After an hour on that side of the store, holy crap to my surprise a second side: the read side. I walked through a corridor and books, books, books, galore. If I had a tent I would have moved in. I found frank Lloyd write books for five dollars. Vintage trailer books at reasonable prices, do it your self books a treasure of books. Art, glamor, grease monkey, humor science, High art for cars, vintage ford cars and parts manuals everything my heart desired. I only got through two isles. I will return, I love a bargain and a good hunt! The staff is awesome! You find seriously rare things!

Not as large as the other three locations. A nice addition to north Denver/highlands/north side or…read morewhatever you want to call the area. Used and new records. Cassettes, cds, and turntables are also for sale. Cleaning cartridges for your turntable as well as the usual assorted audiophile offerings. Gift cards, pint glasses, lighters. Lots of fun tiny gifts or random stocking stuffers around the holidays or a music lovers birthday. I walked in on a whim and was acknowledged. Not necessarily a hearty welcome but the music being played was amazing. Looked through all the genres, record store day releases, singles, LPs and double LPs. A far selection for anyone musically. Again not as diverse as their original location but that is to be expected for a shop of this size. Grabbed a handful of records since I had a birthday gift card "burning a hole" in my electronic pocket. I had purchased from their original location as well as popups on Tennyson and have always been happy with the music selections. You could grab something off Amazon or Discogs but this is a great larger local mom and pop. Real music lovers of the physical format and not just employees running out the clock at Sam Goody. (Does that date me?) Would certainly stop back when in the area to see what is new. This location isn't super old so I know it will be filled out more in future. You certainly can't go wrong for the selection to grab a nice gift for that special someone or even to treat yourself.
