What collectors say

★★★★★

“Awesome record store with a wealth of collectibles and old media. I bought cds, VHS, audio cassettes, and vintage magazines. They have games, comics, and figurines. They even had vintage baseball bats for some reason which was strange in an awesome sort of way 😂 it's on my revisit list any time I'm in Nashville now. They have two stores, one in the North East, the other West of downtown.”

“Cool record store with a really great selection of back issue comics. There is a small new comic wall too. Everything is neat, organized and priced pretty well. The “newest in” bin was 3 long boxes and full of some vintage stuff. If you are lioking for semi-rare in the $6-$10 range back issues….this is an escape!!!”
