Little Axe Records

A great used record shop BUT, see warning below, This could be the best used record shop in town. Their recent arrivals are unrivaled. So you can go there knowing it's amazing. Here come the "but".... But... buyer beware. It's easy to check the condition of records there, but take my word for it: SMELL THE RECORD AND THE SLEEVE BEFORE YOU BUY. I have bought a couple of records that I thought were amazing, then when I got home I realized they stank like moldy awfulness. Smell before you buy, because these guys WILL NOT warn you of MOLD. Because of moldy smelling records, I have deducted two stars for my waste of money and time. I know small businesses are struggling these days, but I think honesty should be the best policy. I have to wear a mask indoors and cannot easily smell foul record sleeves. If you are careful, this is a very good store and you'll find some gems.

Some of the most reasonable prices I encountered in Portland record shops. A new favorite and well worth a visit. Check the employee curated bins near the counter for the good stuff.

Great store, lot of good rare vinyl if you’re a digger and know what to look for. Prices are fine and average. There’s no deals to be had at any record stores these days thanks to Discogs database but at least we have the opportunity to get ahold of hard to find stuff in good condition. Really glad I stopped by this little gem.

This small vinyl store has a very dense collection of rock, modern and well-curated selection of music. Located in a great neighborhood right next to the Hollywood Theater. Great selection and friendly staff. There is a turn table with headset for previewing before you buy and interesting selection playing while you browse through the stacks.
