    The management all smiles during the great outdoor record safari at Glass House Records.
    Ken H.

    The Glass House was a 5 star store last yr. I am revising my review to state that the star system falls utterly short of measuring the cultural significance, the sonic value of this gorgeous institution of tune distribution. The staff is professional and immaculate. I will never forget the impeccable suggestions of the very thoughtful, the very lovely Elijah. He recommended a Lightnin' Hopkins record to me that I know I am a better man for having heard. I believe Elijah has moved on to a green pasture where he studies tunes deep and wide all day. The city of Pomona misses him. At present, Ivan or Jack Glam is the clerk I happen across the most. Jack is a beautiful, hirsute dude who is actually glad to help customers, play records, and just be in a record store. I have spoken briefly about popular latin music with Ivan; he is a friendly and knowledgeable fellow. I hope he is able to stay at the GH some way for many blue, blue moons. And then, there is the magnanimous, the assiduous, the adventurous Alex. Legend has it he still goes on record safari throughout The States and beyond to net that wild, prized vinyl. I am not sure what Alex has not done in music. He has done the DJ thing (and still does at Goldmine Bar), played in a band, sold mountains of records at Coachella, and etcetera. The world of jams would not be the same without Alex. He is a great and groovy attestation of all that is cool in music, but for him I am not sure I would have ever bought Computer Games by George Clinton, or Prince's ultra rare mixes at a FAIR PRICE. Alex keeps the record buying landscape safe for the true diggers, and I will always respect him for that. Much love Glass House. Keep passin' the feelin' on.

    It's sad that they never mention this shop on Record Store Day.This store is located in The Arts Colony across Antique Row.Amoebas little brother is what I think of when I come here.Over the years they have expanded to more than a couple of genres,surprisingly they carry compilations,comedy,country and even spoken word on vinyl.A small turntable sits next to the register so one can listen before buying,not many shops offer that.When I think of the customer service I have to chuckle.Usually when I walk in,the dude in the front says "Hey,what's up?" and proceeds to play his guitar and look at his sheet music.Not mad at all.I never asked his name but I hope he makes it one day.They also carry 45s and tapes and they have a couch just in case you bring someone who's not into digging.Peace Out.

    I can't believe this even exists. It's just cool to look at. How often do you see a mono PROMO copy, or even the album without the peel!?

    This record store is good for REALLY hard to find and rare records. I mean like, impossible to find $$$ really cool ones that are on the wall. They usually have awesome collections of punk 45 records. It's so cool! I get better deals here than on Discogs so i'm always hooked. The manager Alex knows his stuff so well. I can't believe he always finds records like this, and he's always got really awesome stories about where he got them or how he found them. They know something special here, and that's what keeps me coming back. Really smart people who know their stuff. They also have a really good general selection and good picks they recommend of current or their favorite music. I love hearing what music they play in the store and usually end up getting what they're playing. That's smart! All and all, a really fun place to go and a great way to nerd out with fellow music fans!

For a new record needle and the staff was so helpful! As the media corporations keep merging, it will become more and more important to have your favorite physical media. When our enemies knock out our internet to sow chaos, how will we listen to music or watch our favorite films? Take heed, young ones. The streaming generation, all your favorite things can be taken from you with the flip of a switch, not if you have physical media. There are beloved films of my youth unavailable for any price streaming. If your bought it digitally, they can take it away tomorrow. If you own it on physical media THEYLL ONLY TAKE IT FROM YOUR COLD DEAD HANDS!!!

You walk in and vinyl, some merch, cassettes, and books are to the right and CDs, DVDs and posters are to to the left. The vinyl selection is very nice. Don't sleep on the books. They are excellent. Do people actually buy cassettes? I don't think I want to meet those people, no oiffense. The CD collection was bigger and better than I expected. They have both new and used CDs. The prices on the used CDs were reasonable. Music will be playing during your visit and it will probably be good music (on vinyl, of course). The store is spotless and the workers were very friendly and helpful. The vibe here is very good. If I lived closer, I would come here a lot and I would buy a lot. Free and easy parking in the lot. If you love music, you have no excuse for not visiting.

    I adore this little thrift shop! Located on Foothill, A Lot of Good Thrift Store exists on its own…read moreplaza. There is parking in the front of store, but it usually gets taken rather quickly especially between 2 PM to 4 PM on weekdays. You can also park in the back, near the area where donations are dropped off. I usually come on Tuesdays, where discounts usually don't apply to me. I like Wednesday's where there are student/teacher discounts. To my luck, I went on a spin the wheel day today! You get to spin the wheel after your purchase for an opportunity to win items or get a discount. I like browsing their toys, vintage items, and office supplies. I usually get very good second hand items such as staplers, hole punchers, DVDs, shoes, and board games. This location is actually my favorite place to shop for vintage film cameras (I'm afraid to post this because my fellow Yelp friends will be coming more to grab them before I do!). Today, I bought a good pocket minolta film camera, some stuffed animals, and some office supplies. The cashiers are sweethearts and are willing to help you look at items! They also have an extensive amount of used clothes and furniture. It's definitely my favorite thrift store and will continue to be so.

The staff is kind, helpful, and professional, and the donation process is very convenient. They are open Tuesday through Saturday and closed Sunday and Monday. If you're dropping off donations, you can simply drive up to the donation area, and they will take the items from your car and provide you with a receipt. That makes the process so easy. Today I met Maria, the store manager, and she provided excellent customer service. She also shared helpful information about where some of the donated clothing and items go, including libraries and different organizations they partner with. It was a great learning experience and made me feel even better about donating here. I would definitely encourage others to bring donations here or stop by and shop to see what they have. It's a friendly, community-focused thrift store with great customer service.
