Odds + ends in cardboard boxes like old VHS tapes and headphones. Last Vestige has great name and is fantastic for being a toughie on the block with hand written signs and ZZ Top posters galore. The guy at the cashier was down to earth, super laid back and friendly. We just chatted about some sound. Pretty cool homie and pink* store front. They have boxes of dollar deals - which is much better than shopping with arrogant hop-head mall rats at Best Buy or digging for stuff at the local yard sale. It is a really, really neat diamond in the rough. CDs are all clean and intact. Vinyls are in superior shape. Review: (I'll be spendin' some $$ here)

It's kind of hurtful. It's happened multiple times, inside and outside of the store. I recall going to the farmers market and him being inside the store until I came around, he immediately came outside and followed me around :/ It's a big shame as I want to like the store but just can't

That said, the Re-Collector has picked up a few gems so if you're a hard core collector, you'll likely spend a little time flipping through the bins. There's some CDs, DVDs, cassettes, and even a shelf of 8-tracks, and then a bunch of completely randomized tschotschkes. While I'm a sucker for this sort of thing usually we haven't found anything interesting on repeated visits. The music and vibe can be interesting or annoying, which goes double for the Re-Collector himself; he seems to be a bit moody. The store's pretty cramped, too, so go in with your claustrophobia under control and I recommend not taking any bags in, either. Worth a buzz-by if you like random odd used stuff stores, but not a can't miss one-of-those-things IMHO.

Equal Vision Records: The website for music lovers…read more The cd arrived on time and was well packaged with small pieces of bubble wrap on the inside which I appreciated. I really enjoyed the cd quality and the case had no scratches, or broken pieces. I had been waiting a long time to find this cd so having it now is mind-blowing. The booklet with all of the lyrics has amazing pictures included, as well as the picture behind the cd. No poster included which is a bummer but everything else makes up for it. I played it all the way through with no skips, although I did drop it and the case broke really easily which I guess is expected with cheap plastic. I did spend around $15 and the shipping was almost the same amount as the product itself which is not the best. Overall, my expectations were met and I expected nothing less since I ordered from the official website. I would definitely repurchase from this website because the products are great and physical media lovers would really enjoy the variety of items there are. The website was very easy to navigate and includes many different music artists and products such as cd's, vinyl's, clothing merch, etc. It also has occasional holiday sales which is what lead me to purchase this cd. I saw that this website was having a 25% off sale store wide for Labor Day and I saw it as an opportunity to finally purchase the cd I've always wanted and at last, I got.

Furthermore, the majority of items here are expensive and not worth the price. That being said, this FYE does offer lots of movies, posters, candy, and unique items. Also, this FYE has vinyls which seems to be a fad right now and they often offer sales on movies. Forbye, this FYE sometimes gets celebrities to do autograph signings which is interesting.
