The store was so organized, and the staff were super chill. It was hoppin' in there, so I'm pretty sure this is the spot to score vinyl, CDs, and other cool stuff at great prices. Bonus points: they'll even buy your old vinyl! Merch, fun vibes, and all the tunes if you're in Baltimore, you gotta roll check out this joint!

What I discovered quickly though was that there was an ample amount of quality recordings to choose from and priced fairly. The space is somewhat concise, but has plenty to offer over multiple formats and genres. Also the owner was clearly a music lover, knows his stuff and is very helpful if needed. The 'good vibrations' are over at Spin Groove Records!

I really wanted to like this place. They certainly have the goods. But don't expect any…read moreknowledgeable assistance. You're better off yelling at a fellow customer over the music. Most importantly, I asked about prices of cassettes bc there aren't any tags on the cases. I initially accepted the response "anywhere from $1 to $5." But later, when I actually had a little handful, and I also inquired about the 8-tracks, I got the same response. Says she "looks them up." She does not. She sizes people up. Naturally, when I checked out, everything managed to be top dollar. Magical. They also have so many extra things on tables (some for, some just.... random) and shelves that make it hard Not to bump into or knock over. Last thing, I was in my car when I noticed that the cd I bought wasn't in the case. Yes, mea culpa, but how helpful it would've been to have an employee ally looking after me just in case. Oh well. They got their one and only magical bill of sale from me. Ta Ra.

This has been my favorite store since Childhood. Originally located in Iverson Mall, this was THE…read moreSpot to come to (along with The Wiz, Waxie Maxies, Sam Goody, etc.) to get music. Now in it's newer location, nothing has changed. The staff is always friendly and likes to joke around and share their knowledge of music. The celebrity visits to the store and local radio station events still make this a great place to visit. I could spend HOURS in this place and discover new, old and local talent and different genres of music. It can only get expensive when you pick up various items out of excitement :) The prices of their CDs are a little higher than places like Best Buy but it's always great to support your local record store from time to time.

The shop also buys vinyls, either for cash or store credit at a 65% markup from their cash offer. So I was able to sell a vinyl that I ended up finding the OG pressing of. I would definitely recommend this store.

But sadly I was on the hunt for vinyl records and there weren't many on display at the time. And the albums they had were from 2010s to current so wasn't quite what I was looking for. No qualms beyond that. I was in and out and the cashier didn't really pay me any attention which was fine.

They have some deals for some CDs, and note which vinyls/items may be on the more expensive side. They also have DVDs in the room to the side. Pretty vast selection, even though some items may be misplaced here and there. Staff were around organising or available for questions. Can get a little crowded with the narrow aisles, but nothing bad. They do have some seating in the room on the side. I also like the music they play while you're shopping. I'd definitely come again!

I was rudely told, actually ordered, out of the blue, with no warning or previous interaction, to pick up the 4 vinyl records, a CD and 2 books that my husband and I wanted to purchase, because they were temporarily placed on top other records as we were getting ready to pay and leave the store. I asked if the woman was the owner of the store and I told them that the attitude was unacceptable and uncalled for. She kept being rude and at that point I got upset and told her to f**k off. Well, instead of apologizing we were told that they had the right to refuse service, and we were asked to leave. I see, from some of the other reviews I've read, that this is common and acceptable behavior at Second Story Books. I've always believed in supporting the local businesses over the internet, but there is no way in hell that I would ever walk back into that store.
