Village Music World

Patches and records.gooood stuff.

As one reviewer stated the owner is out of touch with pricing on vinyls. To be honest that's an understatement to say the least. The pricing is absolutely absurd! Lps are routinely triple to quintuple the price. I purchased a record the other day for $5 at a different shop and saw the same lp here listed for $55. Lps which are listed on Amazon for $15 are $40 here. It's just absolutely mind boggling especially since a few blocks over there is another record store (Generation Records) that doesn't price gouge it's customers just because it's rent is high. Seriously this guy's pricing is insultingly high. I have no issue paying a mark up at a brick and mortar store because I know they have to cover their over head but clearly I'm not the only one who feels this way as I saw other people browse and leave empty handed as well. It's a real shame too because the shop does have what appears to be a good selection.

One of the most absurdly priced record stores I've ever visited in my entire life. The owner is clearly out of touch with reality, and what every other NY record store sells records for.

"A TREASURE CHEST FULL OF NEW, AND VINTAGE, CDs, DVDs, AND LPs, ALL AT THE BEST PRICES!". "A TRUE NYC TREASURE FOR EVERY ONE TO UNCOVER!". "DON'T MISS THIS GREAT NYC VILLAGE LANDMARK!". BARRY Z, "THE BARRY Z SHOW". "NOW PROUDLY CELEBRATING OVER 2 DECADES OF ENTERTAINING, AND ENLIGHTENING, THE ENTIRE WORLD!".

The owner was really useful, vast selection of local underground hip hop. Lacks new shit tho but thats cool
