VinylExperienc

I just opened my physical record store and I am new to the physical retail store game.

I've been dealing LP's online for 4-5 years.

 

Lots of punk, 70's-90's rock, ska/punk, 2-Tone, old school hip hop, and J-Pop LP's.

Tons of Japanese Pressing imports and original pressings!!

I would like to add your store to the map that I am creating on my site. You can start the process for getting you on the map, by going to http://www.forthevinyl.com/record-stores. There is a form below the map, fill it out and I will get your store on the map. I look forward to seeing your store on the map.

We've had a few threads like this but they never get stickied. SOMEONE PLZ STICKY THIS ONE!!!

As far as Orlando goes, all of the stores I go to have been ridiculously overpriced. Ebay prices or higher, which for me is pointless. Why go out and use gas and toll money to pick up a record for the same price as I can order it for from my home.

If you come through Gainesville, definitely check out Hyde and Zekes and Wayward Council. Hyde and Zekes as a decent used punk/indie/hardcore section, and I've gotten tons of good scores there. Wayward Council is not for profit and volunteer run, so you're pretty much guaranteed not to get ripped off. Not a lot of used stuff, but every once in awhile they'll get in crazy used stuff, usually No Idea, and put a decent price on it.

Hyde and Zeke's

402 Northwest 10th Avenue

Gainesville, FL 32601-4233

Wayward

807 W University Ave., Gainesville, FL 32601

I should also mention that finding wayward council open is hit or miss. It's usually a safe bet to go around 1-2, but no guarantees.

I found that the wayward council record store is closed. Bummer!! http://www.alligator.org/the_avenue/nightlife/article_b5c0ae6e-c63b-11e1-ac06-001a4bcf887a.html

I've never been to any of the record stores in Orlando, but Tampa has 3 pretty good ones. Mojo is my favorite because they have a really good selection of new & used, decent prices and a shit ton of books. I've had some really good finds at Vinyl Fever. Sound Exchange is hit or miss, but it's better than a lot of other stores I've been to.

According to this article (http://goo.gl/ZSUH62) from The Tampa Times, Vinyl Fever, is closed.
