This is a small store with a decent selection of used DVDs, Blu-rays, vinyl and CDs. It's a nice…read moreselection but not a large selection and definitely not organized. They sell both English and Spanish music and mostly English movies. It seems like he sells whatever crosses the store owner's path. If you're an oldie like me and miss the feeling of digging through crates for music and discovering a little known CD or vinyl, check this place out. If you want an easy peasy alphabetized shopping experience, head to Target or look online. The man who owns this store seemed nice and asked if I needed help. I declined and he left me to dig around as I pleased.

Great store if you like to dig into vinyl, lots of salsa, soul, jazz, latin music etc.. Owner is…read morevery nice and helpful, and prices are very cheap. A must go to if you are in the area! And not afraid of digging and searching , because it's not categorised at all.

Each time I come here I learn something new. Thank goodness to their staff informing me and…read moreanswering my questions. They're terrific! I wasn't looking for anything specific but found and bought a vinyl very unique and endearing to me. I also found out their store hours: 12-7. I usually pass by at different times so I wasn't sure of their hours. I'm happy for this place. Keep going!!

I got two records and they are in perfect condition, along with LOTS of 45 rpm's at only $2 a piece. absolutely going back in the future and will be recommending to friends :)

Found this place on Yelp, started a new hobby and was excited to get to this place! Walked in, and…read morewas greeted with nice staff, they were so helpful and knowledgeable in artists I was curious about and also showing me new artists as well! They were so fun and the store has so many options, you could literally spend all day there, with their own turntable playing, it's seriously a good time! The owner, Steve helped me with so many questions and even gave this awesome tote!!

The DVD selection is one of if not the best in the city. Also nice selection of reasonably priced…read moreadult toys and enhancement products. I go mostly for the buddy booths upstairs. It's kind of hit or miss when it's good... it's very good. Mixed crowd ... 20s-40s. Often straight guys, not too Chelsea and no hustlers. Usually after work, later in the week I find to be the busiest. Though I assume weekends are probably good also.

Bookoff is such a gem! They have such a wide variety of books, manga, cds, vinyl, anime figurines,…read morevideo games, and more! It has multiple floors and deals tucked in every corner. There's so much to see, so the space can be a little overwhelming, but it's definitely something every bookworm or nerd should check out in the city.

Buying and Selling at Book Off What a cool store. So much to…read moresee. Unfortunately, it is lousy to sell at and expensive to buy at. First, Selling. I brought in three statue items unopened in the original packaging. I checked on ebay for what the items sold for (not asking price but sold price) and it added up to about $600, I lugged the items over there and had to leave them there because they wouldn't get to them right away. The people/kids working there were very nice. I went to have lunch and got the text to return, and they are offering $150. So I picked up the items and turned down the offer. Again, they were very nice, it's just I wasn't willing to accept 25% of the value. I figured at worst it would be 50%. But I am better off getting closer to the actual price on ebay. Now, Buying. Lots of very expensive and exiting things to get, and I didn't have time to price check things so much, but my son is into the Nintendo switch and i spotted a used Marvel VS Capcom game he might like. It was $34.95. But just in case, I pulled up Amazon and looked the game up. A brand new one costs $21.79. So it would have been a terrible idea for me to buy it there. I guess if you are leaving work and need a quick gift, you might stop in and pay too much for an item. If you are in real trouble and don't have time to wait for an Ebay sale, you might consider selling your collectables for 25% the value, this place might come in handy.

I love gems like this. This is an unpretentious, divey, hole in the wall (literally) record store…read more It is cluttered and messy and disorganized and filled with an assortment of records. And I love it. I go straight to the dollar bins outside. There are about 10-15 bins of records loosely labeled with titles such as "Classic Rock" "Jazz" "Blues". Sometimes a white sticky note will inform you that each record is only 25 cents. I have walked away with 8 records for 2 bucks. Good records! The Doors, Beatles, The Who, Allman Brothers, Marshall Tucker Band, etc. etc. There are also some ridiculous options available as well, an unknown rapper from the mid 70's, another album I purchased simply because the record cover was 5 men in speedos and killer mustaches, and of course some holiday themed music. Really, can you beat listening to a lightly scuffed record, with a good whiskey, while cooking a nice meal? PS. Before making the trek here, check the hours. It closes early most days and is closed on Sundays, Mondays and Wednesdays. PPS. They also have a selection of current music records, VHS tapes, compact disc's and the classic cassette tape, available for purchase.

Sadly, their phone is disconnected, and they're always shuttered. It was nice while it lasted…read more RIP

Still a really cool bookstore, with a lot of books that need to be reached by ladder. I wish I…read morecould see some of those books that are hard to reach. They specialize in antique books as well, their NY sections are well stocked as one might imagine, and the fiction and psychology sections are full of good reads. The spaces and aisles are small and narrow, so be ready to bump elbows and navigate carefully during busy times on weekends.

Despite going to college in the area and going to Lincoln Center so much, I admit I had no idea…read morethere was a Julliard Store until I started hunting Inciardi machines. Staff here were super nice, especially when I wanted to keep hunting more prints and need more tokens. The store itself is really a treasure trove of souvenirs, musically inclined tokens, and other items that would make great gifts. I picked up a little Bob Ross finger puppet for my FIL - they collect the artist ones of the finger puppet collection. I think I saw more selection here than at most museum gift shops. I'm so glad I stumbled on this place by accident by hunting prints because I can see myself coming in for random gifts for people now.

Over the past year, it has become harder to find anything here beyond standard repertoire. I…read moreordered a Delius piano solo that took eight weeks to arrive, and communication with the store was painfully intermittent with me having to follow up constantly. In the end, it would have been faster to order it myself online. More recently, I tried to exchange a gift I received, a biography (not a musical score), that I already owned. I simply wanted to exchange the biography, which was clearly unread, for a different one that was actually more expensive. I was happy to pay the difference. I even had the physical receipt. Both were full-price books, not discounted items. The exchange was declined under their umbrella policy. I understand having a policy in place to protect publishers, but it would be clearer to simply state "All Sales Final on Printed Materials." Instead, the language references "copyrighted materials," which suggests there may be exceptions, when in practice there are not. I want to support a neighborhood brick and mortar music shop. But when selection is limited, flexibility is minimal, and communication is inconsistent, it becomes difficult to justify staying loyal. I am disappointed to say, that I will likely purchase my scores and books elsewhere going forward. At times, the store feels oriented more toward internal or institutional purchases than toward the musicians and readers who live in the neighborhood.
