Review Visit: November 6th, 2016…read more The name in all honesty should be... Endless Records. While killing time in St. Louis, MO, I decided to stop by this music store to see what they offered. Well, they offer endless vinyl to pour over. Endless cds to browse. Endless vhs tapes to get at a cheap price. They had it all and then some. Rows and rows and rows of cds, vinyls, dvds, vhs tapes. Boxes and boxes of the same all over the place. If you are claustrophobic, this store is not for you. If you are a music lover, this store is for you. If you are both... well take your chance and maybe find something cool or unique. The prices on everything seems pretty good, if not a bit cheap. Every artist I thought of, I found something from them. Even happened upon bands I haven't heard of in forever. They do take trade-ins if you are looking to offload rare music stuff or music players. Quite a great little stop if you love music or vinyl or clutter. I tried to capture the charm and the quantity of stuff available in my photos, so you can see what I am talking about.

The space is really big and packed with records, DVDs, CDs, you name it. Everything is labeled pretty well but it can definitely feel overwhelming just because of how much there is. The good news is the staff is super friendly and easy to approach, so don't hesitate to ask them for help or something specific. I was also surprised by how much international stuff they carry. They even had a recent Kpop album from a group I like and I did not expect them to have it in stock. Overall just a really fun place to come to with friends, flip through some records, and maybe find something you weren't expecting. Would go back!

Not only did they have it available but it was priced well too. The staff was very friendly and this place is huge. Highly likely that whatever you are looking for, they'll have it here. My only issue would be parking. I was lucky to find a spot in front but usually it's busy in the loop so get make sure you are good with walking. Still a great location with all the other shops around. I will definitely return as my kids are into vinyl records now and would like a few of their own.

What an entryway!!!

The space inside feels older, it has characters & that bookstore feel you can't explain. I was pleasantly surprised by how big the store was! They did a really good job of organizing books so it wasn't hard to find what I was looking for and in addition to it was easy to browse I ended up spending over an hour just looking around. The downstairs area also has a used book area which I love because it makes them more affordable which helping someone explore an older book for the first time. Anytime I'm in the area I'll be popping in to see what's new (or used) and grab a few books. I highly recommend for anyone wanting to surf through hard copies of books to pick what's right for them. They also had a section of items you can gift as well!

I placed a special limited edition released LP record on hold with this place 2 weeks before it was released but never got a call back from the store, then when I inquired about it, they said it was sold out!? I mean, I even called before the release date and asked to hold one for me but they did not? I even called a few times. On top of that, I wanted a certain special record and actually found it in the store bin and was holding it in my hands, and when I asked a question about this particular record to the store owner, the owner then snapped the record back and said it's not for sale!? He thanked me for finding it. I was in Shock and Awe!? I mean, is this how you operate a legitimate business!? I think this guy just hoards records hoping they might be worth something someday on eBay and then plans on selling them for big profit unfortunately. Go somewhere else, I'll never buy anything from this store ever again! Overpriced and Very Bad Business! There are tons of inexpensive record stores online that hold the same vinyl at much better prices. Mostly overpriced and their business sense could be better. Would give zeros stars if i could. The words out on the street! Delete review read more
