I used to love this store. I saved up my allowance and probably bought my first 50 LPs from here. I can't believe they are still in business. I've suspected the place is just a front for some other back end enterprise or I would have brought back all my mint condition LPs to them when my parents moved. Unfortunately, I think all of my beautiful records got thrown in a dumpster.

Great small record store tucked in suburban Chicago, great prices on new and old records with great pressings of hard to find records, great selection of jazz and blues as well as an ample supply of classic rock.

They do buy records but they tend to shy away from stuff they can't resell; Christmas albums big band, etc. But if you had good classic rock albums, I'm sure they'd be interested

Hi Brian- Most used LPs in good condition like those you mentioned sell for $5.00.

Do they buy used cds

Barbara Kornacki | Nov 5, 2018
John Beckman | Nov 5, 2018

No they do not purchase used CDs as they do not sell CDs. They stopped a number of years to just specialize in new and used records.
