AND 3 "stores" in one? electronic/office Paagman, the COOLEST Childrens store section on the Fred, and a Large selection of books, and adorable cafe, and a post office?!?!? Talk about your one stop shop! 3 entrances at least on the outside each leading to a different section of the store... Easy to think they are not one and the same! How surprised was I to see you served Kicking Horse Coffee..... SO SURPRISED!!! The back cafe almost makes it seem like you are not in a store at all. The kids section is so cool, you can watch movies, and play games, and theres a teeny tiny mouse house with a doorbell. I loved Paagman and Paagman you could spend a good portion of a day in there very welcoming and relaxing atmosphere.

Great store all around and even a greater store if you've just moved to the Hague…read more You can buy postage, pens, books, paper, etc. Basically, Holland's version of a U.S. bookstore. You can also send international mail or purchase a chip card (enabling you to ride on the Tram and use other forms of public transportation in Holland). They also have a restaurant in back that serves decent drinks and snacks. Most important for any newbie to the Hague: free Internet. Apart from McDonald's - weird right? - Paagman is probably the best place to go to simply sit down at a coffee shop and respond to emails or simply surf the net

I was looking for a Skylanders and found a ton in display cases, they had Skylanders from all series expect for imaginatiors. I got 10 new Skylanders including a life trap for a good deal.

AWESOME! This is a…read moregames fan paradise, right infront of central station! Your eyes will go all "cartoony-like" as soon as you go in! Well, at least mine did! It's a super small place, but they have a good stock! Remember your gameboy? Old Nintendo? Still a fan? They have it there!! This is a second-hand store (buy & sell), but they don't only sell old games. They also sell consoles, computers, toys, music, porters and movies. You can also bring your old stuff to sell to them! They buy games, consoles, loose parts and more... You can head over to their website for more info. 2 years ago i searched the whole city for a nintendo 64, and this place was the only one that had it! They even had choices! I could get joysticks and games for it, and although they are expensive (the games, more than the console), they are in great condition, and they have popular and even rare games. The store is super packed with games (well stored), music lps, cds and dvds, consoles on display, and so much more... It's like you don't know where to focus your eyes! I highly recommend their service (I don't like buying these things online), because of their fair prices, the dedication to good quality and awesomeness, of course.

Concerto was overwhelming in the best way possible. It was a maze of music/dvds and vinyl…read more The selection and prices were really great. I thought the store was really well organized between new and used as well as genres. Everything was easy to navigate and I enjoyed taking my time to look for something that I might not be able to find in my own local record store. They have music DVDs that I've never seen before so that was fun to look through and so many vinyl records. Really you could spend hours here looking around, but I didn't have the time. If I can, I'll get back there most definitely. The prices were really reasonable too, which makes shopping there even better because you're getting a good deal too.

My husband was on the hunt for interesting vinyl during our trip to Europe and he had made a list…read moreof independent record stores he wanted to visit in each country. This one was high on his list. We wandered over to try to find it right at sunset, so we got the added benefit of seeing the Red Light District come alive for the evening. We were super confused upon arriving at the stated address because there was no record shop there - just a place called Red Light Radio Studio. He was terribly disappointed and said maybe they closed or something. Later in our visit, we were back over in the same area and I noted that there was an alley next to the radio station (the alley helpfully had "No sex" written across the top of it, lol). I wondered out loud if the record store was down the alley and indeed it was. He was delighted. The actual store is pretty tiny but has a really interesting and good selection. It's definitely worth checking out if you like to dig through bins. He bought a few things and was very pleased.

This particular shop is pretty big for a retail space in Europe and delightfully had a bench where I could park myself while he browsed.

My only complaint was that the music in the store was SUPER loud and made it hard to talk. Shout out to Nigel, who was super friendly and helpful.

Before my trip to Amsterdam I had Googled various vinyl stores in the area because I knew I wanted…read moreto buy some while on vacation. Fame Megastore caught my attention as it seemed to be the Dutch version of Best Buy but with vinyls and I was sort of right. Fame Megastore is in the basement level of the electronics market (I don't remember the official name), but it's across the street from the Sea Palace. The Megastore has DVDs, CDs, and vinyl records along with other random items like cups and t shirts as well. I was impressed with the selection of items. All the items were new, this was not going to be a rummage sale of any kind which I honestly did appreciate. I was able to score some deals there which I was happy about, but the customer service was kind of lacking. Two associates worked that area and neither spoke to me. They spoke to each other, but not me. When paying you take your items to the main level and check out there. You're not going to find any hidden gems there. You might if you're American, but I'm glad I stopped by to check it out. For sure there are other vinyl shops in Amsterdam with amazing selections to check out first.
