    What an excellent addition to Carlsbad this place is! Not only are they well stocked but the owner is so helpful and knowledgable. The prices are great and you can find some hidden gems. Definitely recommend for any vinyl collectors.

    The owner is a stalker

    The owner of this place stalked me on Facebook when I gave him an unfavorable google review (screenshot attached...even though he keeps removing it because he's embarrassed of his childish behavior). Horrible selection of "vinyls" (he gets super triggered when you add an "s" to the end), very unorganized, and prices are nonsense. This place is garbage. Edit: Look at his response. "Normally I don't respond this way to negative reviews." Lol sure you don't, little fella. Imagine throwing a tantrum over someone being unimpressed with your failing business. Pathetic.

    My daughter and I stopped in here. The staff was friendly and helpful. They even honor the Yelp deal for 10% off.

    Local band gig info and gear, plus vinyl wall to wall. Dope spot. Not a CD in sight, so be tr-eal and ready when you enter. Love

    Thought it was worth an update to mention: They have $1 records on the back porch that you can spend some serious time sorting thru if that blows up your skirt, they sell new and used record players, storage options, tapes (yes, tapes a la the 90s) & some interesting merchandise. This store keeps getting better, with the same helpful guy at the register. Fantastic.

It feels like a family atmosphere, not just a store. Everyone is friendly, remembers your name, and goes out of their way to help. They have even offered to carry items out to my car, which you just do not see very often anymore. This place is a gem. Great deals, great people, and an all around great experience every time. Highly recommend. Twenty billion stars out of 5.

Parking was very special and I felt very welcomed. We had to stop and speak to a security guard, which was amazing. I brought in a few bags for selling, and it made me feel safe. Once I entered the business establishment I was greeted, and everybody was very friendly. They offered me a beverage and gave me an apple space for sitting on their comfortable chairs. I love how much light enters through the window windows because it makes your shopping experience fun and you can see the true colors of the bags. The bathroom was very clean. Julia was the woman I spoke to a week ago and she helped me through text message coordinate the purchase of a bag. She was very kind, patient and very thorough with all of the details that I requested upfront. When I finally met her in person to pick up the bag, she was super sweet and spent a lot of time with me. She answered all my questions and I will definitely work with her again in the future. I do wish they had some snack snacks because I always love snack snacks and I spent a few hours there. Overall loved the place. Will definitely go back. I love my bag and it's such good quality. It's even pet friendly. I brought my dog. Prices were competitive to market values which were great.

I consigned my Hermès Chevre de Coromandel Birkin 40 Cognac, 2004 H in Square, through Fashionphile's consignment process. I trusted Fashionphile's reputation and expertise to handle it properly. Fashionphile received my bag. I have documentation confirming receipt, and I also have photographs provided by Marco, a Fashionphile employee, showing my Birkin in Fashionphile's possession. There is absolutely no question that Fashionphile had custody and control of my handbag. I have been battling this situation since May 16, 2026. Fashionphile was returning the bag back to me. However, through what appears to be their own negligence, they shipped my handbag to an address in a state where I do not even live. Let that sink in. A company specializing in luxury goods had possession of my Hermès Birkin and then shipped it to a completely different state that has no connection to me. This was not a situation where the package was lost before it reached Fashionphile. They had already received the bag. This was not a dispute over whether they ever possessed it. They did. I have proof. Yet despite having possession of my property, they shipped it to the wrong location and my bag has never been returned to me. Since May 16th, I have spent countless hours making calls, sending emails, gathering records, reviewing tracking information, preserving evidence, and trying to get answers. What should have been a straightforward transaction turned into weeks of stress, frustration, and uncertainty over the whereabouts of my handbag that should have remained secure while in Fashionphile's care. The most disturbing part is the lack of confidence this experience has given me in Fashionphile's handling of high-value items. Customers consign luxury goods with Fashionphile because they believe the company has systems in place to protect those items. My experience suggests otherwise. If a documented Hermès Birkin can be received by Fashionphile and then shipped to a state where the owner does not even reside, that raises serious concerns about the company's internal procedures and accountability. Beyond the financial loss, this situation has caused tremendous stress. Luxury handbags are not just expensive possessions. For many collectors, they represent years of effort, and investment. To have a company entrusted with that property lose control of it has been incredibly upsetting. As of today June 12,2026, I am still seeking the return of my Hermès Chevre de Coromandel Birkin 40 Cognac, 2004 H in Square, or fair compensation for its loss. I hope Fashionphile finally takes responsibility and resolves this matter appropriately. Until then, I feel obligated to share my experience so that others can make an informed decision before entrusting Fashionphile with their valuable property.
