    It saddens me to have to leave this review. I don't like leaving negative reviews but I was screwed…read moreover by the owner of this place and others should know to beware. He promised me cash for the albums I brought in but waited until AFTER I loaded 200+ vinyls and two cases of CDs into his store to tell me he didn't have the cash. I waited for almost 2 hours the next day for him at his store (during his alleged store hours and the agree upon time to meet there). When he did show he conveniently had failed to bring the keys to his store (and conveniently my $$ AND my records were locked inside). I do not live in Abq so my timeline was limited to pick up and I had to leave... which he also knew. I had no choice but to leave with nothing and now hundreds of dollars short of collectable vinyl. He promised to mail the money to me. That was four weeks ago. Really disappointed. To say the least. Could say more about that but not worth the ranting here. Suffice it to say, don't give this guy any of your stuff till he puts cash in your hand. While I was waiting in vain for him to show, I watched at least 10 potential customers come and go trying to get into his shop during "business hours." Some of whom said they had been by more than once and he's never there. So I wouldn't trust the posted store hours. It's a crapshoot if he'll actually be there. If this guy ever actually makes it right and sends my money, (like he promised profusely to me that he would!!!), I will happily update this review and give him back some stars. Not getting my hopes up....

    This place opened with such high hopes but turned out to be 'pie in the sky' . The owner talked a…read moregood line about the future of the place, performances by local bands, out of town bands, DJ and Turntable nights, espresso/cappuccino bar, game tables in game room, clothing, smoking stuff, DJ gear, and LOTS of vinyl, New and used. Unfortunately I never daughter of the shows they DID have and I never got the chance to purchase any of the sweet vinyl had perused as it was quite overpriced compared to other stores in town. Then with little notice they moved FAR to the West Side. Far towards the end of Paradise Hills or near Too Rancho, methinks. Then I heard that it REALLY sucked at the WestSide locale. End of story.

    I guess two stars if you are desperate and need fulfilment. They have super-jacked their vinyl and…read moreCD prices to absurd levels. I can't even bring myself to continue browsing. It's so bad that, if I keep looking, it may seem that I approve their price hikes or think they are acceptable. Sad end to my relationship with an erstwhile cool store.

    It's not often I find myself going here as not only is it far for me these days (I live across…read moretown), but it just isn't as glamorous as it used to be. I remember a time when this place was the go to for all your entertainment from movies to cd's and even cool unique novelties not found anywhere else. These days it's all about the digital era and with so much competition out there it's not hard to imagine why FYE has lost its luster. They have a decent selection of movies, and still carry CD's along with some trendy novelties such as Funko Pops, imported candies, and stuffed animals along with small electronics including vinyl players. It's basically a smaller version of the last remanent of the beloved Hastings. Unfortunately they are slightly higher priced and even with their promotions some of the items you can find at another competitor for lower prices. The customer service is basically take it or leave it. No one greets you when you walk in, no one offers to help, you're lucky to even get anything other than a total and your items placed in a bag by a teenager who clearly doesn't wanna be there. At this point you might as well be coming up to self checkout like the ones at Walmart because that's the customer service your gonna get. I don't like to leave a negative review but I have to say I feel the end of the road for FYE. We had a good run didn't we?
