I now own some records that are worth a pretty penny should I ever decide to part with them. I've become a regular around this store so much that I've had the pleasure of meeting other great patrons that love vinyl as much as myself. Hanging out here has become a pleasurable service as much as just going to a bar to have a drink with friends. I've learned a great bit and I'm eager to learn and listen to more. My musical taste is extremely wide ranging so trust me when I tell you this is the shop for all your needs. So stop in when you're in the San Marco neighborhood and remember to always keep spinning!

Interesting store. I like to dig, and this is a digger's store- crazy piles of stuff everywhere. If…read moreyou want to browse you will need to move boxes to get to stuff. The inventory is really interesting and deep but it is dirty and a lot of the records are in poor condition. Again, I like to dig, but in these circumstances I don't want to pay boutique prices- they wanted $10-15 for 12" records I can get near-mint on discogs for $5. They should consider charging less considering the amount of labor they are putting on the customer. I pulled out a pile of about 20 records but put back 10 because they were scratched and skipped out on 9 more because I could get them cheaper elsewhere. Came out with one record and filthy fingers. No regrets, but I probably won't come back. Nice people though!

I was only able to be in the space about 5 minutes before I felt too claustrophobic and had to leave. There are thousands and thousands of records, cassettes, 8 tracks, CDs, and audio equipment everywhere in this store however - almost like a hoarder house there are pathways carved out of these records and you have to one foot in front of the other carefully walk through without tripping. In the case of an emergency (god forbid) I wouldn't want customer or employee alike to be placed in a bad situation because of how unmanaged and chaotic this establishment is.

I was happy to walk in and see they had a decent selection of CDs as well. As a collector, I did end up picking up a few to bring home as well. Prices are very reasonable on the CDs so I will definitely be back to check those out as new arrivals come in. They also hosted a meet and greet with the band Guttermouth and I was able to get the LP I won autographed by Mark (the singer). Staff here is very welcoming and friendly too which is obviously a bonus!

The books here are mostly in brand new condition and sold at a heavily discounted price. Books from travel to cook books to novels to almost anything you can think of are available. If you have collectors to buy for they have a huge collection of Funko Pops to choose from. They also have old and new comic books with many used comic books only selling for a dollar or two each. A few packs of unopened sports card packs are for sale and don't leave the store without a pack of Jelly Bellies which are usually kept by the registers. On this visit they also had many holiday gift ideas on a few of the displays. Fun place to look at stuff and buy things you need or things you didn't know you need. Check it out because it's a fun place or just a place to pick out a new book.

We happened to be out that way today so we were excited to stop in at the store again for the first time in a while. They're open on Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays. The thing about Joe (the owner) is that he knows his stuff with respect to pressings but he doesn't over price anything. He also grades records VERY accurately in my experience. I have never bought an LP and felt like I overpaid which quite frankly, is a miracle in today's vinyl market. We picked up Whitney Houstons debut LP while we were there today along with The Jacksons Live.
