I placed my order through the Discogs app, and the entire process was smooth from start to finish. Shipping was very fast, and I received timely updates on my order status and tracking information. The album arrived well-packaged and in the exact condition described in the listing. Overall, the transaction was easy, professional, and hassle-free. I would not hesitate to order from them again. I only wish I lived closer because I would definitely enjoy visiting their store in person.

Wow - just received my first vinyl purchase from Plaid Room today and I can't say enough good…read morethings. First, this was a record I'd had a hard time finding stateside - not only did they have it, it was priced beyond fairly. The shipping cost was much less than I've grown accustomed to via artist web stores and many other physical music stores. And last but not least, the packaging!! Amazing, they took so much care to ensure this record arrived mint. One of the most carefully and wisely packaged items I've received...and again, priced so fairly for how impeccably it was prepared. It would have survived all kinds of transit issues, were there any to be encountered. Fan for life, can't wait to buy more from this great shop

Greatest record store around. The staff are great guys, very helpful. One of them sparked a…read moreconversation with me about one of my fav bands, t rex, we talked for a bit, he gave me really good info on some records I didn't know about, and then as I continued to shop, he put a trex album on in the store. I shop here often but, just a nice story for those looking for a great place to get your music and possibly make a few friends. Also found just what I was looking for at a great price, I never leave empty handed. Shop at everybody's records.

Came across Parker's while trying to kill some time waiting to meet some friends for lunch in…read moreMilford. I'd have to say overall I was impressed. Now first off, there are a lot of records here..a whole lot..they're completely stuffed into the bins that stretch up and down the length of the store. There is a huge amount to go through here. I would have to say that how stuffed all of these bins are with records makes it pretty difficult to browse. And if you're looking for anything past the 70's or 80's era..this isn't the place for you. The guy working there the day I was there..who I assume was the owner..was very personable and was quick to ask if I had come there because of their website or not. Apparently the store's website catalogues this plethora of vinyl and allows you to search for specific titles you may be looking for. He was very adamant about wanting to show me their site before I left so that I could know how to navigate through it and find any specific titles I was looking for in the future. I appreciated the info and it did seem to be a lot easier than trying to browse through this crazy collection. I still spent some time looking around and was able to find a title that I had been looking for. Prices here are on the higher end for used vinyl, but they really do put a lot of effort in only offering records in the most prestine condition. Most records are even graded on their condition and it's listed on the price tag. I was satisfied with my purchase, with the level of customer service I was provided (by someone who obviously know a whole lot about vinyl), and was impressed with the immense collection they had. I will definitely take the owner up on the option of searching their website for anything I might purchase here in the future. That way I can walk in and have my selections waiting for me..instead of having to search for hours to find records that they could have or not.

An interesting little shop on the edge of Milford. The owner is super into 45's and spent most of…read morethe 45 minutes I was there telling me story about buying and selling them, and about how he was recently robbed of several dozen rare ones. He apparently does 80% of his sales via his online store, and mostly sells the 45's. I hate flipping through 45's but there are a few rare ones I'm after, and lo and behold he had one and it was a reasonable price. I flipped through a bunch of the LPs there. Many of the shelves are so packed with records that you can't even physically flip through them, a huge pet peeve of mine. The LP stock is nearly all 50s-80s material, mostly in the classic rock, jazz and soul formats. He also said he would be selling the store and retiring soon, and that a new owner was buying all the LPs and opening a new record shop in the same location. It will be interesting to go back in a few months and see what's become of it under the new ownership. All in all a decent record shop. It didn't align with my tastes overall, but for those most interested in classic rock or old soul/R&B 45s, it's definitely worth a stop (or a search on their website).

I discovered this vinyl shop on Yelp. I was pleased with the reviews that my Mr. and I had to pay…read morethem a visit on a Saturday afternoon. They are fairly new (I believe they've been opened for a year), but have a lot to offer. Their prices are set by 3 prices (for used records). -Red stickers are $5.00 -Yellow stickers are $10.00 -Green stickers are $15.00 Some are priced individually if they don't have colored stickers. Which is very reasonable. They have .50 cent and $3.00 bins on the bottom of the shelves which are in fairly good condition and nice selection. Left with a ton of $3.00 finds! The store itself is very organized, categorized, not cluttered and overstocked. Easy to maneuver and get around. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. They don't have a listening station but willing to play a record if you want to test it out. They do sell used stereo equipment, CDs, cassettes, Newly pressed Vinyls, new record players, accessories, and T-shirt's with their logo. I'm so glad we stopped by. Crate digging was so much fun and left with a lot of great vinyls. Can't wait to go back!

It may be small but you will be surprise with the selections of music. Everything was categorized and easy to find. Jazz, Rock, R&B Soul, Soundtrack, Rarities, etc. I would rather go to a record shop that is not too huge. It can be overwhelming and overkill when there is way too much. My boyfriend and I found quite a few old school vinyls for reasonable price. There was even one soundtrack I was shocked to find and it was only $5.95! Definitely made my day. Besides vinyls they sell T-shirts and even turntables. They even have a listening station. The owner was very friendly on giving me tips on finding some good speakers for my new turntable I got for Christmas. I was pleased with MetaModern Music and can't wait to go back to purchase more vinyls!

It's a pretty small store overall, but the selection they pack into this small space is incredibly impressive. So many great and obscure records to choose from. Pricing is very reasonable..some used stuff for a couple bucks..new stuff for honestly lower prices than I've seen at any other record store in the area. The guy that runs the place is cool too. Seems to be pretty knowledgeable in all things music..I mean if he's the guy that stocks this great stuff than he'd have to be. Highly recommend this store to any and all music lovers in the area. I hope it sticks around for a long time..can't wait to go back!
