    Employees are kind and store is organized. A lot of Pop-It's were on the floor in the back, which makes it difficult to browse through if you have lower back issues or neck pain. I saw two special edition Britney Spears Pop-It - one was priced $24.99 and the other $17.99 but they were identical. I ended up purchasing the $17.99 one of course. Unsure why the differences in price. The pricing is different as well compared to other stores. I noticed a Pika-Chu Pop-it I purchased for $4.99 at the Folsom location being sold for $7.99 here.

    Not sure why so many bad review because this place is awesome! Went in today while in Sac and was blown away with the inventory. They have literally anything and everything cool or collectible. Sports, Clothes, Music, Video Games, Toys, Shoes, etc etc etc. The prices were super reasonable on most items we looked it. Hats were like $4.99 and half of them were brand new. Video game systems were extremely reasonable along with games. The decorations and mass amount of stuff in the store is shocking. It's shocking when you first walk in because the store is literally packed. Finally the staff were super chill and helpful. We will definitely be back to The Cave.

    I call bullshit ! I went to trade in a few items with my 9 year old grandson. To our surprise , I got a text saying we had $271 store credit ! When we got to the store they were having trouble locating our trade in , so I was having my grandson select some items he had been hoping to get . When we get to the counter , I'm informed they made a "mistake" and we only had $10 in credit , they had the wrong items listed for our trade ins . I understand mistakes happen , but I asked if they could at least comp a $20 item for the huge disappointment my grandson faced . No , wouldn't do it . Not the customer service I would expect when it comes to just being decent people . Do your job right in the first place in stead of a "bait and switch". Very dissatisfied with the whole way this was handled

    My kids and I are literally obsessed with the Cave. Vintage tshirts & vinyl. You'll need time to thumb through it all, but totally worth it.

    Great place for superannuated teenagers. Prices seem decent for toys including diecast cars. I did not see many boardgames, though.

    Great for collectibles! Multiple locations to dig. Sometimes the prices are inconsistent. Pro tip- Look for multiples

    I think the best way I can describe the Cave is a pawn shop for people who like anime, comics, video games, toys and vintage clothes.

    One of the only vinyl records stores in all of Sacramento. Definitely one of the only ones we…read moreprefer. Great selection. The staff, nicest in the world. You can spend all day in there chatting about music and the way recording and distribution has changed over the years. Great place. I would stop by even if you don't have a record player or tape player. The nostalgia, the walk down memory lane when you Spin a record on your palms or stick your finger in a cd. Man I feel old. But my 13yr old gets me to Phono Select all the time. There is something for everyone.

If you're into punk / metal / hardcore, they have a great selection, but I've also picked up some good hip-hop, jazz, folk, and country stuff here, too. The dude that works behind the counter is super friendly, chatty, and seems to genuinely appreciate people being there. The sign even says "Friendliest Record Store." I'll be honest - as a former record store employee with a terrible attitude that kind of put me off at first. But as I've gotten older and less unruly, it was appreciated when I was able to wax nostalgic about wax with him. Good selection of 7"s, too - and if you look at their website you can virtually check what's in stop before hitting them up. Oh, and they have sales - often! - that are noted on their Instagram page. Need more shops like this. Need more people to support shops like this. I'm a fan.

    The Audio Nerd is one of the best record stores I've been to. Not it's a bit of a drive from me and…read moreso I can never visit as often as I'd like to, but I have never had a bad experience. The owner is very passionate about music and you can tell it from talking to him. He is friendly, was chatting with all the different customers about what they picked, and even gives good suggestions! I bought a record from a band I had never heard of before (Fox Medicine). They were in the metal section but it was cute and bright pink. I looked them up quickly and listened to a couple songs and told myself I had to get that record. The owner was chatting with me about if I liked them or not and I was honest about literally just discovering them. He gave me one of their posters free of charge! They had just performed at his store and so he had a few left. I didn't realize he was giving it to me until we were leaving, I thought he was just showing me the poster. That absolutely made my day once I realized he was just giving it to me. The variety in this store is amazing with loads of vinyl, CDs, cassettes, and even music equipment! Prices are very fair, and everything is properly labeled. Instead of me having to get my hopes up inspect the record, the front usually says the condition, pressing, if it's colored, etc. I don't have to waste my time inspecting it myself, as the staff has already done the leg work. They even have a bargain bin (wall) with great deals! Down on the floor was a box that had cheap project vinyl too. When I worked at a record store I remember teachers coming in looking for the cheapest ones they could find for a various lessons they had coming up. I'm glad The Audio Nerd has a box for people like them. The store is a little bit cramped with how small it is and with how much product they carry, but it is such a gem and so fun to flip through. You can spend an hour or two easily in there despite it being a small store. Live shows even happen here! They move some of the tables out and put a band in there. Shout out Hayden for always promoting upcoming shows there! And as if this place couldn't get any cooler, they also do punch cards too... Who has ever heard of a record store doing a punch card before? Absolutely amazing. If you are looking for a cool new record store, The Audio Nerd is a great place to check out.

    This is the most disorganized mess of a "store" we'd ever seen in our lives--absolutely filthy with…read morepiles of junk everywhere. Selection was difficult bc their organization is a joke. I ended up finding 3 records to purchase. Got home & 2 of them are so warped they're garbage! Won't be back to this dump
