Alan even took the time to play each album we were purchasing to ensure sound quality. On top of it all, he was incredibly hospitable- offering us a seat and answering any questions we had about his former student, Frank Iero. We definitely felt right at home with him telling us a bunch of stories. My boyfriend and I both cannot recommend this store more. We WILL be back to see Alan and his company in the future!!

It seems they're using the newer store model that does away with the actual movie sections. The focus is clearly on pop culture merchandise with tons of collectibles, unique snacks, and of course apparel. There are, however, some Blu-ray's depending on the seasonal displays set up in the store. But the main demographic for this location is definitely collectors. With it being the newest location to pop up in the state, they've got fresh inventory so it's great to find things that have been harder to find in other FYE's or other stores in general. Definitely worth checking out if you've never been before!

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.

Where to start? Was in the area with some time to kill and googled for record stores near me…read more Tunes popped up only 15 minutes away. Let's go! A huge selection very well laid out and alphabetized for the most part. Plenty of choices on new and used albums. Very decent pricing. Found a couple dozen to add to my collection which was great. I have to single out an employee named Dylan (hope I spelled it correctly). While I was shopping, a gentleman came in who was homeless and disoriented. Most store employees would have turned up their nose and immediately gotten this "vagrant " out of the store. Dylan handled this individual with the same respect and concern as he would have any celebrity. I was thoroughly impressed. The individual left with a smile and all of his dignity. Not something you see anymore. Dylan, your momma would be proud of you. As I was checking out, he noticed one of the albums I was buying (Hair) and engaged me in a good conversation about the original playwright who happened to be local to the area. Thoroughly enjoyed my excursion to Tunes and have it pinned to return when I'm back in that area. (Or even remotely close) Only downside is parking. It's definitely city parking. Three blocks away at a meter. Otherwise truly great experience.

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.
