Steve Crowder

Pretty good record store. Great selection of 12, 10 and 7 inch vinyl. Loads of cassettes and CDs as well. A little expensive but it is what it is. They also have use equipment, turntables and receivers. I'll definitely shop there again. Mostly cause it's across the street from my work.

Mark Lee Allen

It's one of the greatest record stores in the northwest, it moved from its old location, I preferred the old location but I must say the new location is much better stocked, it really is a place you must visit if you love 45s LPS and everything included

Craig Pruitt

Block off about 3 hours if you are general vinyl shopping, if you are looking for specifics block off about 2.5 hours. It's awesome and a little overwhelming, can't wait to go back.

Luke Fisher

5 stars just for finding a super clean copy of Robert Crays second album and a fantastic copy of I Robot for $10…! Seriously cool how this place is set up, it's like 25 record stores under one roof. Some of the vendors have better prices than others, some have better organization too. Serious crate diggers only IMO. If you don't enjoy the hunt, this may not be your kind of place. It's 2+ hours each way for us but we'll be back, $76 for 16 albums in great condition is fantastic these days.

A Portland institution with many different vendors (25 or so?), so if you can't find anything you like I'd be hard pressed to say you like music at all! I've found many original pressing that I've searched elsewhere for here. But you will have to pay what they're worth. However you should support these vendors regardless.. We need them to stay. Love this place. Thanks for being such a great place all these years.

Lisa Hillyard

Super chill shop to hang and flip thru discs, hear some cool sounds.

Kevin Robbins

Without a doubt one of the best stocked and most welcoming used vinyl record shops in Portland. A veritable destination for serious vinyl hounds seeking to dig for those rarities in all styles and types of music. Huge and uncommon SQ Quadraphonic section covering all genres. A store welcoming many consignees so full of covetable disks amassed via the expertise of multiple collectors/sellers. Go Already!!

Brie

A great spot with tons of gems, a record player for you to test out the records before you buy, and a seriously decent selection. Always find a few things to pick up here. Plus one of the few record shops I've ever been with a nice person at the counter that doesn't make me feel like an intruder for browsing/stepping foot in the store.

Michael Poley

This has the most eclectic selection of records in PDX - it's essentially a bunch of random record dealers selling their stuff by consignment and it's amazing! Wish for something when you enter and you'lI probably find it. I found 2 of my grail records here on my last visit - The Wicker Man sndtrk and The Hobbit Rankin/bass sndtrk!!

stacy marx

Great selection! Nice guy behind the counter.. will always come back!

Jessie Oshel

I could spend day there looking and going Thur records 8 find a couple I like I would be back but I'm from Wichita ks and was visiting the Portland area

Brandon Walpole

This place absolutely rocks me. As a record fanatic, I know I'll always find something insane here.

Aubrey Folwick

love this place! you can find all kinds of music, records, and CDs here for a pretty good price. They even sell some record players. I like that it's old fashioned and the music they play in the store is always great. I definitely recommend this place for music lovers or people just looking to find some new music

M. HulksHeroes

Amazing selection. Didn't realize until leaving...but a HUGE selection from multiple venders under one roof. Vinyls, cassettes, and I believe CD's(but I wasn't shopping for CD's...so not positive), and all price ranges for most everything. Reasonable prices...and a few were a bit high...but plenty of choice. A must stop shop😎

Aub Driver

One of Portland's best kept secrets. This record store is actually 20 record stores in one. Multiple vendors sell out of various stalls here meaning, you never know what you'll find! You can dig for hours and hardly make a dent. Start in the back and work your way to the front. Plenty of stock to choose from that's continually curated by the sellers.

Brass Tacks

A solid location to get some great vinyl. ...but be prepared to dig. Not a lot of alphabetizing going on in here.

wesley meier

Wow! I found vinyl records I never see in record shops in the United States at amazing prices. The shop has a great atmosphere. I definitely recommend checking it out.

Michael Jones

Great selection , awesome people. Bring a milk crate...

Jesse Gandy

My first time in and not my last! I literally had to set a timer for myself or I would've spent all day here. Cool atmosphere and so many records! Everything is super reasonably priced too. Check it out!

Derek Led

This place is awesome. Ton of different vendors with their own sections. 1000s of records to go through. Everything from jazz, rock, rap, new wave, metal, classic, whatever they got it. I own a lot of records but I always find something I need or want or just can't pass up. Reasonable prices. I have spent hours and hours here.

Matt Boisvert

Record shop so good that I almost don't want to leave a review and keep it to myself. Huge, fantastic selection with enough space to browse comfortably. They have a great indie selection, some rare stuff, and a bunch of good cheap records. It'd take more than a day to go through it all, and I'd definitely leave broke.

Mitchel Johnson

Nice record shop with a wide variety of reasonably priced vinyl. The only problems I have is that they don’t really carry newer records and the records are poorly organized, I think because it is split up by different vendors. It would be good if they figure out a different way to organize the records that is easier for the customers to find what they are looking for. They will definitely be my go to place for older records from now on.

Ralph Falls II

Great selection on NEW and tons of ORIGINAL LPS and 45s! Oh, wait, what's that... looking for cassette tapes? You a official audio lover...then you'll spend HOURS here... CDs, tees, posters and MORE! GREAT prices and great customer service!

Joseph Rowland

Great selection of used vinyl. Small used CD selection but well stocked. They have used stereo equipment reasonably priced. The only draw back to this place is that it's chopped up by the different sellers. It would make more sense if the shop would just color designate by seller and put all of the stock together by genre and artist. Would save a lot of confusion.

Edward Henry IV

Great place with lots of awesome records, cds and various stuff! You never know what youll find since there's various vendors selling stuff under one roof. Worth the trip!

Taylor Hill

A great and necessary Portland music shop. This is a superstore for vinyl, cd's, tapes and other media. The perfect place to fill in your collection with classic records or find the far out esoteric and fringe. Shop local!

Brandon Barnhart

Huge selection of vinyl! This place has many vendors under one roof who tend to favor one of two genres of music, so there's a good chance you'll find what you're looking for, or find something new if you're not looking for anything at all. I can easily spend 2 hours here each time I visit.

Edward Mulder

Lots of albums of all kinds of music. My brother in law has collected many great jazz albums. Some real collectors albums here. I have found many $5.00 used CDs that are in like new condition. Lots of different vendors consignment albums. Huge collections. We go in once a month and usually find several new albums each time. Set up so can listen to your pick before buying. Great place, real friendly people.

Tim Goyer

Their a really cool music store that has a lot of music to go through..

Christopher Fast

A crate diggers delight! Think of this place like an antique mall, each section is a different vendor. Some CD's and tapes, but mostly this place is all about the used vinyl!

Toni Smith - Graniello

There is a huge selection of vinyl and a lot of genres. The man inside was really nice even though we showed up right before closing time. We wish we would have gotten there earlier bease there was a lot of stuff I would love to go through... oh well. I definitely come back again to look.

Jer Johnson

The selection is very nice and the prices are some of the best I have seen. The amount of product is amazing and they have lots of singles too. The prices are mostly between 1 to 5 dollars and everything is usually in good condition. The only complaints I have is some stuff you have to dig through many bins for. Another minor issues is the parking area is too small.

Jacqueline Clark

Great selection, nice that there are multiple vendors. Well priced

Ben D'Avanza

Great record store with multiple dealers. Worth a stop. Listening station.

richard diaz

Essentially like a record fair without vendors to haggle with... you can find some good deals here but don’t expect it to be easy. Most of what I saw that wasn’t deep in a floor crate and any good was overpriced— I saw 4 or 5 records I have already and payed considerably less for (John fahey for $30, Neil young s/t for $20 that I got for $8 elsewhere 😱) it’s as if these vendors think we don’t all have iPhones and can look this stuff up... That said, if you’re patient and look hard enough, you can distinguish the ripping off vendors from the reasonable ones and find some good deals. Also unfortunate how most of the records have price stickers directly on the sleeve, thereby often inevitably damaging it when removed... but I guess it would be too easy to switch the plastic sleeves.

Brian Esparza

Overwhelming in the best way. Don't go there if you're in a rush. Settle in, dig and be stoked on what you didn't expect to find.

Cody Peterson

If you can't find something here to take home, then I don't know what to tell you. Every genre imaginable and ranging from $2 to hundreds. Best spot to dig for hours vs anywhere in the PNW.

William White

Large selection of used vinyl at reasonable prices. They also have used CDs, and cassette tapes. They have a very small selection of Rap/Hip Hop.

RSC Kichen

It's so annoying when someone doesn't get their way and posts false reviews. Having found this place was a godsend. No one has been rude, of course I am always careful to shop during business hours. It's really too bad that shopkeepers don't have a way of posting reviews of customers as a warning to others, don't you think?

Jeff Truhn

This is one of those rare gems that still remain. A hold back from a time when people bought records from record stores, not faceless web stores. I came in @ 5:55 and the owner seemed unhappy and told me he was closing soon. That changed as soon as I said "look man, I haven't been in in a while and I'm a native". I waved several hundreds and said "I'll take all your Adam Ant and Sigue sigue Sputnik". You sir, are in luck, he replied. He took me into the back room and showed me a treasure trove of new wave records they had just purchased. Then we went out, got beers and went bowling. A perfect record shopping experience.

Evan

Love crossroads. There is always something good to be found here. Honestly you could spend an entire day here if you wanted to. Nice gentleman at the front with style. Support local record stores!

Mark Gorney

Great place for vinyl. If you have the time to dig, you can find some bargains. I got some 45s for 50¢, one of which was worth $5-7!

Tabby

Aside from one worker who for the most part seems distant and aloof, the place is most certainly enjoyable and is filled with vinyl wonderland. Great selections!!

Eric Furlong

Great spot for hard to find vinyl. Multiple collectors offer up one of the LARGEST selections in PDX!

Jax McClaskey

Pretty large selection of vinyl, cassettes, CDS, and more! Can listen before you buy which is really cool. Worth checking out for a few hours!

Brent Lyman

First time in , WOW , AMAZING , FRIENDLY , HELPFUL ,got albums I've been after 4 a long time 👍👍👍😁I'll always return ✌️🌄❤️😁 …

Tyler Gibson

Big collection, perfect for wandering in search of the occasional rare find for a couple hours

Pat Thielges

Arrived at 5:59pm and was told by the owner they were closing. I told him I was having a medical emergency and had driven 2 hours through hospital traffic to get there. The owner informed me that they are a record shop and not a hospital. What a jerk. Why couldn't he have just let me in , have me prepped for surgery and removed the bowel obstruction . This is why hospitals like Crossroads are going out of business and I get all my medical care from sites like Discogs and EBay. So instead I had to deal with the pain in my bowels and go to OHSU not feeling well and browse their selection of Ethiopian funk albums. Thanks Obama!

lowstephenell

Definitely the best used record store in Portland. They have the largest selection by far out of any store in the area for those sweet used records.

Kyle Carlisle

You gotta be willing to dig a little....... but there are gems to be found, and no pretentious people looking down at you if you don't buy what they think is cool at the moment.

Greg Green

Great selection of used records and CDs. Worth the digging to find some great jems.

Brian Green

Mishmash of independent sellers. Lots of selection but widely varying prices and condition. Worth crate diving though. Nice staff. Note Google maps misdirected around the corner. Lots of serious collected here

Rosalyn Rowe

the density of good stuff isn't that high, but it's a fun way to spend an hour or two. usually go home with at least one record!

Theodore Jackson

One of the biggest record stores I have been too. Lots of selection and good recommendations. If you want to go to a record store in portland, you cant miss this one.

Missy Isles

Great selection of vinyl. Found so many great albums when we visited here from out of town.

Steve Wilmart

Portland crate-digging go-to for us amatuers. As always, buyer beware - of both price gouging and condition. Still, if your moderately well-informed you can almost always leave with an armful and a stupid grin on your face. At least I do...

Rico Perez

Great collection of old records, especially jazz, blues, and rock. Not a lot of new albums, but great place to dig for older releases.

Feral Drollery

Amazing selection, I could browse here all day! Some of the prices seem slightly steep.

sandman503

Spent like 4 hours in this place today and feel like I've only scratched the surface. Amazing selection, good prices, however a bit overwhelming at first.
