There are some great vinyl stores in the general area and Electric Eye should be on your list as a…read moremust visit. Lots of records and they are well organized. I tend to look for Rock/pop & jazz but there are some other well stocked genres. One big difference here are the holy grails. You know, the "I have been looking for a while and I know it's not going to be cheap, but I gotta have it, records." I'd say you'll see more here than other stores and the pricing is fair. Online you'll often find the grails but the sellers are looking to retire off the sale where as here you'll pay a price that you'll feel good about. Overall you'll find a well curated collection of vintage vinyl. Enjoy.

This was an amazing find of a place to explore, and I think is a must visit if you find it! As you…read morecould tell from its name they have used books which is a large portion of the inventory but don't worry if you aren't a book lover they have plenty. Vintage vinyls in large numbers, vintage clothing, and plenty of other oddities to excite you or even make you wonder. There is a main building where you'll find some books, most of the vinyls and lots of other items. Out back, which by the way does have a couple parking spots also has the yurt which is where you will find the majority of the books. It's a very impressive collection and has a good variety of genres and while a lot are vintage I did stumble upon some more commonly know titles such as Harry Potter and a Hunger Games book. If you only explore the main building and skip the yurt you certainly miss out! The owner was extremely friendly and you could tell this is a passion of his to share his collection for others to find and collect! Also for the most part I really thought prices were reasonable, with many of the books in the yurt looking like they were $3-$4 roughly. My wife and I almost decided to purchase an awesome looking lamp that featured a barrel as the base. We did up just browsing though but enjoyed our time here very much! Worth visiting for sure!

They have a section of used books for a lower price along with a cafe. They even sell records.

I left buying 4 books for myself and one as a gift.

We had just arrived in our…read morecar with our 13-year-old Labrador Retriever (we planned to take turns in the bookstore with the other hanging out with the dog), when our cellphones let us know that we were under a tornado warning and should take shelter immediately. We had no place to go, so my husband ran in and asked the manager/owner if, given the circumstances, we could take shelter there until the emergency was over. We thought, given the types of folks who tend to run independent bookstores, that question would be a no-brainer. To our stunned amazement, he said no. "Nice" guy. Our everlasting thanks to the employee who ran out into the parking lot and helped us find our way to the local Tractor Supply Company, where we took shelter. We give this place 1 star - zero for the bookstore and its owner and five for the employee, because at least one person in that place has a truly kind heart.

Other d&d items, manga, and even Vampire The Masquerade manuals which I thought were kinda niche and only me and my friends enjoyed it but I guess I'm wrong.

(I also ended up talking with some other people shopping about the manga chainsaw man, fun experience)

I love music, and Turn It Up has a HUGE selection of CDs. For the amount of inventory in the store, it's remarkably well organized. The place is a visual overload, and if you're looking for something specific, you can probably find it in the CD section. They also had a pretty large selection of DVDs and boxed sets that the young kids would call "vintage." I wish the vinyl collection would have been more extensive. But, I realize this is a place you should probably wander into looking for nothing in particular and leaving with something unusual. Overall, worth a browse if you're doing brunch at nearby Alvah Stone and need to kill a little time! Go explore.
