Come See us @ Prov. Heritage Fest this weekend! Check the events page for more info!
You've come to the right place! Please read the information below to see if your items meet our criteria.
We do buy pre-owned (& new!) records, but what records we will accept depends on a variety of factors, which are outlined in the section below.
We typically buy records outright, but we also offer store credit or trade ins, and we will always take donations!
We also accept music or pop culture memorabilia, such as tour shirts/autographs/posters/etc.
Items such as CDs, cassettes, and 8tracks do not hold much monetary value, but we'd still be willing to take a look at small collections that meet the genre & condition criteria. Items such as these are mostly taken if they are donations, as they are not our highest priority.
We do not buy DVDs, VHS tapes, or other non-music media.
We are mostly looking for clean (not scratched, warped, or otherwise damaged) 33 rpm LP records. We're looking for records from the mid-1960s to the present, which fall under popular genres such as rock, pop, blues, etc.
The covers (jackets) of the records must also be in good shape and free of water damage, mold, cigarette smell/residue, tearing, etc.
In terms of buying, classic rock and roll vinyl LPs are our highest priority. We are almost always seeking out records by artists such as The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, etc.
If you have anything more modern, we'd also be interested! We have a very sizable section of our store dedicated to eras of music from the 80s & 90s, all the way to the newest releases of the 2020s.
We will also accept 45 rpm/7 inch records that meet the criteria above, but only if they have their original picture sleeves. We are not typically interested in loose 45s without picture sleeves, with very few exceptions, such as an obscure label.
CDs/cassettes/8tracks must meet the same requirements (in good condition, by a popular band or genre, etc), however these formats are really only taken in as donations (meaning, you give them to us without receiving payment), as we will usually sell them for between $1 and $5.
WE ARE ALMOST ALWAYS LOOKING FOR STEREO EQUIPMENT! If you have a working turntable/receiver/speakers/etc., we'd be more than happy to take a look.
We may also be interested in music or pop culture memorabilia, such as concert shirts, autographs, posters, etc. These items are a little harder to sell on our end however, so they must meet similar criteria (in good condition, by/from a popular or otherwise well-known artist, etc). We may express more interest if your items are vintage!
Music related book and magazines, and vintage comic books are welcome, especially vintage music magazines. (Circus, Mojo, Rolling Stone, etc.)
Victrolas/Phonographs/Gramophones are taken in occasionally, but if we currently have one, we may not be interested in another until that one has sold. We currently have one in house, but keep checking in to see if we are ready to take in another one!
(If you can do so, please use the form at the bottom of this page to send us a list of what records or other items you have, before coming in or setting up an appointment, especially if your collection is larger! We greatly appreciate you taking the time to do this, as it makes the buying process much smoother! You can also send your list to us via email.)
If you don't have many records/other items, or you are willing to bring your items in to us, we will look at collections during normal business hours. You don't have to set up an appointment, but please call before you come in to make sure the owner Mick is present and available to look at your collection.
If you have a very large collection or you cannot bring your collection in to us for whatever reason, please email or call us to make an appointment and we will find a good time where we can come to you.
First, we will assess your collection, looking at general condition, genre of music, etc.
We will usually sort your collection into 3 categories: records that can go in the Great Record Room, records that will go outside for $1 to $3, and records that we will not take, if any.
After records are assessed and sorted, we will let you know either the amount we can pay you for them, or how much we can offer in store credit. We typically give more in store credit than in payment (for example, if we offer you $25 payment, we could offer you $35 in store credit instead!)
If you are happy with our offer, we will gladly purchase your records! However, If you are unhappy with the offer or do not want to sell for any reason, we will not be offended! We're happy to create a very low-pressure selling environment.
If you have emailed us ahead of time with a list of what you would like to bring in, we will let you know which records out of your collection we are interested in, if any, prior to you bringing them in to us.
If your records do not meet our criteria for any reason, there are other places that may take them! We personally recommend:
