Records everywhere, well-organized, catalogued in a way that's convenient and easy to find. Their selection is also amazing! I saw quite a few things there I have not see anywhere else. In terms of pricing, everything is pretty fair, dare I say a steal. They had a super rare bootleg for $100, having collected for a while that is a STEAL. I just wish the staff was nicer. The guy working was helpful, I won't deny that. However when I asked for records by a specific artist I like, his first response was to insult them pretty heavily for a controversy they got in nearly a decade ago. Now I am not a para social person--I do not hold personal investment in the perceptions people have on things I like. However I found the comments to be contradictory and rude. The store sells records by the likes of the Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin--two bands I love, but two bands who are not free from controversy themselves. This immediately ruined my experience and I really hate saying that. I put down what I was going to purchase and I left. In my opinion, a response as simple as "I'm sorry, we don't carry anything by them," would have been suitable. Three stars. Cool store, great selection, good value. Unfortunately I just had a terrible personal experience there.

It has more than most normal people could ever care about or look through. A great place for gifts or finishing off a collection. The prices are hit and miss to be honest.

There's something from almost every cartoon you can think of along with movie characters and whoever. Come trade Pokémon or whatever knockoff cards. They also have a section of vinyl if you're looking for hip music. Find lots of great stuff to buy, or sell to get cash. It's hard to choose only a few things to get. The staff is a bunch of nerds so they know lots of things about quality and value.

Check it out, one of the better record stores in Chicagoland as most record stores don't even have a DJ setup. It's like a hidden gem cuz it's right next door to a HUGE Graham Crackers comics, and tho most people will go there to be ripped off by the chain store of Graham Crackers overpriced books where you'll never find a deal, they're right next to this record store where there's deals and fun stuff to be found.
