I bought a…read moreJapanese pressing on vinyl of something the first time, and that's one reason I really dig this store. For the size, this is 3/4 records, with a wide variety of genres, especially rock and jazz. The other 25% is refurbished electronics, especially turntables, amplifiers, and cassette decks. We're talking 60s through early 80s stuff, made of metal, with cool VU guages and knobs. Sansui, Nakamichi, Sony, Akai et al. You want a classic look in your listening room? You might find it here. Everything is immaculately clean and all records are graded visually and sonically. One appeal for Japanese vinyl is the brilliant production and quality of the pressings on virgin vinyl. Sonically they have a nice appeal, too. The vintage gear lends another dimension, and the owner is the tech guy, also. He showed me a box of vintage vacuum tubes, all graded by strength, and balance, which are important considerations for audio use, and in guitar amps. The old stuff was primarily built for military usage first, and commercial applications second. New Old Stock (NOS) will outlast tubes made today in Russia or China. But prices are high due to dwindling availability. Great shop, because my collection is so big, i usually just browse the newly arrived section,and what's on the walls.

Boogie Maru Sounds is one of the most underrated vinyl shops I have been to in SoCal. This spot is…read morea gem in the South Bay with a solid selection of different Japanese vinyls and pressings. This spot is located in a plaza with a good amount of parking spots. Inside, they are a smaller shop but have lots of crates to dig through. Their crates are well organized and their vinyls are priced fairly. All of the staff here are friendly and welcoming. I would definitely recommend stopping by to see what unique gems you could find!

The shop is great, and the music they had playing was a bonus. He knows a lot about all genres of music and is kind to everyone who steps through the door. He was very fair on pricing. We couldn't have asked for a better experience! If you are looking to shop for records, this is THE place!

I just sold my record collection to Gary at Third Eye Records and he was fantastic! I cannot say…read moreenough good things about him. He contacted me quickly via email after I scheduled an appointment on their website. He does house calls! He came to my house the following day, on time, to appraise my collection and gave me a fair offer based on all the research I had done. I even negotiated a slightly higher price, which he accepted. We set up a day for him to collect the records and he showed up on time and quickly boxed them up and dispersed payment. Gary has such a warm, kind, and trusting energy about him. If you are looking to sell a record collection or other record store memorabilia I highly recommend selling to Gary at Third Eye Records!

I'm very honored to be the first one to post a review for Mike Vague Records!! I was a long time…read morecustomer of Bagatelle for at least 35 years and I was so very saddened that the store had closed after Steve Mintz passed at the end of last year. I thought at that time that another iconic record store had closed its doors for good. I was in the area today and thought I would drive by the store to see what remained. To my astonishment, the store was opened and I walked in and was greeted by the new owner Mike. We both shared some fun stories about the past and I walked away buying 3 really great LPs! The inventory has grown and Mike was hard at work going through and pricing the new inventory. Mike is a great guy and so very helpful if you have any questions. Probably 75% of my record collection has come from this store! Looking forward to bringing some record collector friends with me next time to search for some great vinyl! Please support this amazing and wonderful business as you will not be disappointed!!! 5 stars plus all the way!!
