And this was the best experience so far. Fantastic collection of reggae, soul, hip hop and rock. Prices are great as well--super competitive. They also have a listening station, which is always convenient. I find that I buy more LPs when I can preview them before purchasing. Their stock is well organized. It is a smaller sized store, but I easily spent two hours looking through everything, including their 45s. I saw a few locals walk in so it felt like a cool neighborhood spot. The shop is definitely worth the trip down to Prospect Lefferts Gardens. It is not too far from the subway or park either.

When Italy won the World Cup in 2006 this was one of the central meeting points for rabid fans! You can get Italian anything, Cassettes, CD's Vinyl, movies you name it. It's also a gift shop with tons of italian t-shirts. If you enjoy nostalgia you should visit this store before it is gone, it's one of the few Italian stores left in the neighborhood.

This is one of the biggest bitter-sweet shopping experiences I've ever had. On one hand, the shop…read moreis fully stocked with Italian CDs (they've ditched vinyl) and DVDs. Along with other Italian knickknacks and coffee makers. I managed to find a cd I was looking for and ended buying another that they were playing. Fine and good. I walked out satisfied...at least until I was halfway back home. The cds looked a bit "off". I didn't realize it in the store because I guess I was in a rush. Dreading the worst I unwrapped the CDs and my disappointment was confirmed. They were counterfeit. The "booklet" was just a folded glossy paper with no pages on the inside. The top of the disc was a poorly designed knock-off. Sure the CDs worked, but fake? That's messed up. SAS is located deep in Brooklyn just a few stops shy of Coney Island. If you're in Manhattan, it's a journey. I would give the place one star but since this was my first (and will quite possibly be my last) trip there, I don't know the shop enough to accuse their entire merchandise as counterfeit. So benefit of the doubt. If you decide to check it out, just take a close look at what you're buying. Don't get ripped off.

It was closed for the night, but I vowed to remember to go back. It looked like my wet dream: classic old movies collected into one small store for my browsing and ecstasy. So, I went back weeks later. The cutest thing about this place is one person works there, and she actually has a sign that says, "Be back in 5 minutes" if she steps out to get coffee or use the restroom or grab lunch or whatnot. That's just cool. I love that carefree attitude when it comes to shops, it's so not stiff and whimsical. Anywho, as to the actual selection, it's solid if not out of this world. The problem with the store I feel is that it'll go out of business because there's too much competition around, and it doesn't help that a lot of old movies aren't on DVD yet, and more hard to find stuff from say, Bogart's catalog (all those actors were under contract and many of them did so many movies that most people haven't seen, they may have sucked but they exist). However, the great thing about the place is that for old movie lovers, to browse by director or actor or genre without all the fluff of crap that usually circulates a place like Kim's or the now not-there Tower, or Virgin, or whatever, it's an easy stop to make. In conjunction they press and present all sorts of film night type stuff in the city. The prices were about on par with any other store, which is expensive to say the least. But if I have a real urge and I'm in there area, I don't mind shelling out a couple extra clams at this place.

*** I will update this review upon receiving contact from them ***…read more I discovered Cinema Classics online and I was thoroughly impressed with their inventory. There are so many movies I want to get, (and keep in mind, I have an impressive physical media collection). I usually do big orders, but thankfully I made a small purchase (about $100). After adding the movies to my cart and paying, I did NOT receive a confirmation email. I tried contacting them through their website section that says ''Contact." There seems to be a broken/glitched function because the email does not go through. I checked my bank card and I was still charged... I had to Google if this was a legitimate site lol. If it's this challenging to get in contact with them, that's concerning. I've ordered from well over 20 movie sites and Cinema Classics has been the only one that has had this issue. No email confirmation/order number or any way to be contacted from their site. Listing their email and phone number would seem to be the wise thing to do. Stay tuned
