For anyone into vintage records, Dixon's is the place for you…read more There is such a huge selection they are bound to have exactly what you are looking for. I walk in and I don't know where to start. I could spend hours browsing through the offerings, and I often do! The cool thing about Dixon's, is you can not only buy all you old faves, but you can also sell your records there. On more than one occasion I have been tempted to take down mums Bony M collection because I'm sick of hearing it played everytime I go over! But that's a whole other story.. Dixon's also have a good range of DVD's, CD's and Bu Ray DVD's.

Growing up in Blackburn one of the most favourite things to do was head down to the second record…read moreplace and spend a Saturday flicking through records and CDs. The notion of buying and selling second hand goods only came to me after being in this store. The quality of wares is good - the Blackburn one having a stronger selection of Metal and Hard Rock than most of the others - and as it turns out they had to move due to the quantity of stock. Rest assured it only ended up being a few shops up the street, taking over an old garage and converting it into a huge warehouse space. There is even enough room to house a piano in the foyer area, though I'm yet to see any play it. The guys working there have been there since my early days in the store, and are keen music antiquity men and fonts of music knowledge. They can tell you who was having it off with who's girlfriend in the band while making a certain record. Their historical music gossip will make you blush.

The Y.E.S Op Shop has great vibes as well as great stock. There is so much variety in the objects…read moreon the shelves that visiting the shop is like going treasure hunting; there's a lot of junk, but also plenty of good finds. The shop is run by volunteers to fund education qualifications for young people and the disadvantaged. They rely on donations of all their stock. They sell items inclusive of clothing, dvds, cds, books, toys and bric-a-brac. They only take quality items that are in good condition so there aren't any shockingly horrible things in there. The atmosphere is pretty friendly. People pop in and out as much to have a chat as to pick up something from the shop. The prices are fairly reasonable - the nicer and the newer an item the higher the price. It is logical. There are some prices that are a little higher than I would expect for an op shop but it is all going to a good cause so complaining is definitely not an option. There is also quite a large range of furniture and decor items in this op shop - definitely check it out.
