Double check your bag when you walk out. I was willing to think it was an honest mistake but it happened again. You give them your selection, they price it all, ring you up and hand you a bag. Twice now, there have been records missing.

Pretty expensive, but wow the inventory is amazing!! Might want to give yourself the day here. Owner is friendly and fun to talk to. I just love this shop! The whole experience was memorable and I will come back again someday.

Everyone who worked there was so nice and helpful!! The selection was INSANE, it was the coolest record shop I’ve ever been to! They had every single record I’d been looking for for the last couple years. They gave me a good deal and I got awesome original records from them! 100% recommend please go there next time you’re looking for records.

I was hesitant to come here due to the negative reviews: HUGE mistake.I have visited most of the vinyl stores here in Las Vegas and spent over $1,000.00 in 3 trips to one store. They have yet to know my name or ask me if there is anything special I am searching for.On my initial visit to Wax Trax, I was greeted and told where to find the different genres in the building. YES you have to get everything priced, I knew this and as assests, the value of vinyl can change daily. It was not a hassle.When I checked out, the gentleman asked was there anything special I was looking for? I gave him 3 titles. He called me 4 days later and had located all three, one of them n Spain. Customer service still matter folks.Lable, compilation, reissue, remaster, picture disc, unofficial release, matrix number, master release, 1st pressing: so many variations that can have an effect on the price of a record. These are not the albums they are selling at Target boys and girls.If you are not familiar with the graduate level of vinyl collecting, I can see this being overwhelming to some.They offer memorabilia, tour jackets, concert t-shirts and so much more. Come by and plan to spend a few hours to take it all in.

One of the best used vinyl stores I have visited. Granted, I buy vinyl for listening reasons, not collecting for future resale. I loved the selection in the $5 room and was able to check off a few albums off my “wish list”. I very much enjoyed the conversation with the owner regarding his close relationship with an music icon. Love this place and will never come to Vegas again without visiting

Very nice owner who gave us a fair price for his treasures that he sold us. The place is an amazing storehouse of the most diverse music, movie and memorabilia collection Ive ever seen. It would take several lifetimes to listen and look at everything there. A music lovers dream!

Its an amazing place, but be prepared to spend top 💵 for anything in this place. Its like a music museum or gallery where you can buy basically anything you want. LITERALLY....they had 4 Michael Jackson Thriller Albums. Yes, I said 4.Theres 🎵🎶 and memorabilia as far as the 👁️ can see. Meticulously organized by genre & artist. I mean an ENTIRE Billie Holiday section all to herself. Spaces are very tight in the store, but its definitely a cool experience. Prepare yourself if you ever feel claustrophobic! 🎵🎶🎧🎼🎤📻

This place has tons of records that I just haven’t been able to find anywhere else. The selection here is unmatched but the pricing is really steep. Discogs has much better prices but the store was convenient and it’s always fun to dig through the records yourself. The staff was helpful and they helped me with the layout of the store. If you’re hunting for a rare record you’ll probably track it down here but be prepared to pay extra.

Great find in Las Vegas! So many to choose from. If youre looking for something obscure or more mainstream, youll find it here! Charlie the puppy may ask for an entry fee of ear strichess. Rich (the owner) knows his stuff!

Huge selection of used vinyl but *steep* prices.Everything is well organized alphabetically but very dense and packed together, very hard to browse unless you know exactly what youre looking for.Nothing is priced, make sure to look up how much the records cost online before bringing them to the counter to be priced. Theres a fair chance you can buy it online for $10-40 cheaper and its not worth it.

Went for record store day and was blown away. If you are a collector of Vinyl this place has absolutely everything you need! Found some awesome Jazz and Soul albums, owner is cool and has some awesome stories!-Kobi

Great selection if you dont mind digging, but buyer beware, they price off of Discogs, the High End of Discogs, and regardless of the condition of the cover, if the vinyl is pristine, and the cover looks like its been through a house fire, with 7 inch splits at the ends, promo punches mid sleeve.. theyre still asking top dollar, even though you can point out 3 others of the same releases on discogs that are $30 - $40 dollars cheaper. Do your research and show it to em before your purchase.

Nice store, feels like a labyrinth, staff is great, bit clutter but that’s ok.Nothing is priced and this is for a reason, they will look up prices on Discog’s and give you the highest price possible and discount a few bucks to make it feel like they are giving you a deal. You are better off looking in line for yourself.

Nothing is priced. Now I know why all the collcetibles weren’t sold. Stay away.

This place has so many records I can’t even explain. Prices are reasonable. Owner is really cool.

I cant believe how excited I got to dig around in these records...only to find out that I had to wait 30 minutes plus for the staff to look up prices on Discogs...what a joke! I left my stack of records on the counter and walked out the door. Dont waste your time. There are tons of far better shops in the area.

I’m baffled by the reviews stating how “reasonable” prices are here! Firstly, NOTHING is priced… the owner will quote you a price for the records you choose to purchase only upon viewing your entire sales selections. Prices are at the NM grade as listed in any of the price guide catalogs regardless of the actual physical grade of the vinyl. Reissue labels such as “COLLECTABLES” are exorbitantly high-priced (8.00-15.00)… The owner is a former NYC record store owner who is trying to impose his own sense of a record’s value on the public… VERY DISAPPONTING visit…

If you’re looking for the bargain bin, this isn’t the place to come. It’s a floor to ceiling treasure trove of top quality vinyl and random bits of amazing memorabilia. Be sure you have plenty of time when you come cause there’s a lot to see!!

Friendly as all get out! But was royally ripped off for some Beatles memorabilia... I would never visit this shop again do to that! I bought a few signs/pics that were on the walls, frames were trashed so upon replacing discovered 1 of them was a post card - charged 125 bucks! This is just one example! Total spent this day over 450.... Furious!

We had the greatest time checking out Richs collection. If you are a vinyl collector either a pro or just starting out, I highly recommend Wax Trax as your first stop in Las Vegas!!

Loooooove this store! Worth coming to Vegas just to visit

Close to vinyl heaven. All the rare records youre looking for, are hiding there. Come with a large wallet, though!

They made a very happy grandkid today.

So this place has sooo much used vinyl. I found so many great albums I have not been able to find anywhere else. Only problem you are gonna pay through the nose for it. Nothing is priced so when you take it up they go online and price it off going rate which sucks. The $5 bargain bin had a few gems though. You really need at least a few hours to go through this place. If you need hard to find vinyl this place probably has it.

This Record shop has it All ! 3 floors of crazy cool stuff ...the shop owner was just the Bomb! I spent hours in there and didnt even put a dent . But man i came away with some crazy cool records .nice prices and will be back

Large selection, good prices and great friendly services.

I don’t think we will be returning to this record store. Owner wasn’t the friendliest but his dog Charlie was sweet. Nothing is priced Until you bring your selections to the register and they look online to see what the highest selling price is and they knock a couple dollars off of that. But it is ridiculously overpriced. I wish we had read the reviews before going there. It is so disorganized and you need to shimmy your way through this place. I instead would recommend ZIA Records (2 locations but the one on Rainbow is my favorite), Record City (2 locations also) or Moondog Records. Their prices are A LOT more reasonable.

Dont be put off by the disorderly nature of the shop. Yes, you need to squeeze around random shelves and boxes, but once you do, you will find vintage stuff in excellent condition. Im talking Sabbath, Purple, Zeppelin, Hendrix, Stones, Beatles, all of it. Is it pricey? Oh yeah it is. Quite pricey, but a true lover of classic albums will find it worth every penny. The owner is direct and lets you know up front, his store is high dollar and for serious collectors only. Know that going in and have fun, because this place is incredible.

Went to Wax Trax for the first time. I was kindly welcomed to the store. I was asked what I am looking for and directed upstairs. I was also told that they don’t have prices on anything, just pick out records and bring them down. They will then check the internet and give me a fair deal. Strange but ok. Picked out about 10 records, took them to the desk and waited about 40 minutes for my “Fair prices” lol what a frickin joke.I looked up a couple recorded while there one was priced from $15-19 bucks. His fair price was $50. Another was $10-20 bucks, the ultra fair price on that one was $90. I quickly realized that this wasn’t the place for me. Unfortunately there is an excellent selection but dude must be smoking some high quality dope when he gives prices! Which I imagine he can afford if people pay those prices. I was also told by his co worker that this is a collectors store! That was the second clue of what I was in for. After the first round of insane prices I had a couple more records I asked about and was told that’s gonna be expensive!Overall just a joke of a store! If you are a collector I guess you’re willing to pay crazy prices and this may be the store for you. The selection was quite impressive but I’ll never return.If he was reasonable I’d think he would make so much more money but hey, I’m not a record store owner.

One of the best collection Ive ever seen. Wide range of $ and records.Friendly know-it-all stuff

I have never met an owner so knowledgeable of his product. Something to be said for life experiences!!

Great Selection Of Vinyl But Too Pricey For Me....

Great store. Great man. Unbelievable inventory. An A++ must experience for any collector.

Pity that the prices are outrageous, because the collection is pretty good and the records are often in very good conditions. But too much is just too much!A place for true hard-core collectors who are looking for an old rarity (maybe?!), but not for the enthusiast looking to extend a collection at a fair price. I would have liked to support a local record store but Im not ready to throw money out of the window to support what I consider dishonesty.In my opinion, an elitist record store that kills the fun for most collectors by driving the prices up.

I’ve read the good and the bad reviews... but here is the deal with with Wax Trax. Selection is incredible - 100% worth the trip just for that alone. Second , the owner is part of what makes the experience. He’s to the point , he jokes around , is direct but not rude , wants you to have fun looking and yes he is there to make money. Don’t be surprised that everything you grab isn’t a steal because it’s not that kind of place. Hit the $5 bin if that’s your thing because you will find something you want. Organization is sufficient but you can always ask for help. Nothing is priced and they do look it up but try to think of that as part of the xperience. A record is worth what someone is willing to pay - know your number and engage in the fun of it - you may be surprised. I had an absolute blast. Got some really sweet deals, some prices were fair and I might have overpaid a little for 1 of 10 but it was worth it for selection and knowledge of the staff. Will return again 100%

I was waffling between four and five stars for Wax Trax, but theres too many pros that outweigh the one con. If youre from the East Coast, like I am, the owner, Richie is a nice throwback to the stores I visited as a kid and the store owners I worked for back in the day. Hes knowledgeable, helpful, and I enjoyed talking to him as much as I enjoyed the truly unbelievable collection. The store was busy today, and Richie and Jerry were both helpful; its a store I will certainly visit again. They get five stars for the collection - Ive never seen such diversity, and they had several copies of hard-to-find records Ive been looking for. The one con is how they price records, but after reading other reviews and thinking about it - its not Tower Records, Sam Goody, etc. Its a place to find that music collectible thats important to you. The four records I walked out with were reasonably priced - one Ive been looking for for 30-years (A rare Roger Waters album) - and more importantly - no one else has these records. Ive been to Amoeba in LA, stores all over Vegas, San Jose, Denver, and many others domestic and international, but this is a unique place worth visiting.

Hands down the best experience I’ve had with records in Vegas. Rich and Jerry were kind enough to stay a few minutes after close and help me out. I only made it through (maybe) 1/3rd of their inventory and crossed off five incredible records from my list that I haven’t seen out in the wild. Will definitely set aside some more time next trip. This spot is a must if you’re into collecting, sampling, or the DJ scene. Much love to you all from Nashville, TN!

I rank this store as guten

This is a real record store, this is how it should be. Literally music memorabilia from the floor to the ceiling. Rare albums, CDs, books...everything. Give yourself some time to go through there because its worth it. Thanks to everyone that helped me out. Yours truly, Utah

The last time I was in Las Vegas I thought I would give wax track one more shot at my business thinking maybe the owner had softened up his prices and his attitude towards customers. THE PLACE IS A JOKE!!!! I will never ever step foot in that place again and waste my time. Buyers beware!!!

This place is unreal! Rich is a great guy. Knows everything! What a selection. Best anywhere. Honest and friendly, felt like when I was a kid going through a friends record collection. This guys word is solid. Just because you find a gem, if he quoted you he sticks to it. You dont find this kind of honesty everyday. A true gentleman.

Cool. Yeah sure its a bit bizarre there. Sure prices are a tad on the high side. But holy cow, I spent years digging for some records everywhere and then bam they have 3 great copies of it, including some crazy import. All at fair prices. That said buy more than a few pieces, be a good human, love music, start a conversation with a smile and the staff will hook it up. This is a gem of a record store unlike nearly all Ive ever been to.

If you cant find an album anywhere else try here. But be prepared to pay a premium.

Nice store. The owner was cool but paying 20 bucks for a poor condition record and finding out that I could of got it in the exact same condition for 2 dollars doesnt set well with me. Fair market price comes down to condition and maybe up pricing about 2 bucks from the lowest grade in which the record is in. Thats fair enough. Should have figured. Thats what I get. Probably will hit up another record store the next time Im in town but still pretty cool to see all those records.

Sure it’s a little bit of a while in the wall but w the small 3 floors, 10/10, I’ve been to many vinyl record stores and this is definitely one of the best. I’m also a collector who is stingy on their money so their prices are very good!!! Again, 10/10!!!

How could you not want to buy music from this establishment?...If you’re a self proclaimed vinyl enthusiast I would skip it. If you truly love music?....I would strongly suggest a visit.Unfortunately for me, I was told to never return....See you on my next visit to town Rich.

Has some good rare items in nice condition. Only problem is he is asking a high premium for them. You will NOT find any good deals. You wont even find fair deals. There was a record that consistently goes for $60 on discogs and he wants $100 in similar condition. Be careful

Solid collection..horrible organization. Place needs to be reorganized and all the vinyl should be priced. I’ve never been to a record shop that you have to bring the vinyl up to get a price before you buy.Suggestion: find a bigger place, buy a price gun or two and hire some staff to help organize the vinyl. There were $50-$120 records not even in plastic sleeves.Not sure I’d go back due to the time it would take to go through all the unpriced and horribly organized sections.

I couldnt agree less with the bad reviews. I knew going in which records I was looking for and related ballpark figures for each. I found that Rich not only priced them fairly, but offered a volume discount.Jerry was polite and accommodating, while a spirited conversation with Rich about my oddball tastes revealed an impressive store of knowledge and delight in coming across the new and unusual record.

Fantastic place. The owner is a great guy. Very knowledgeable, friendly and fair seller. Enjoyed looking through his place. Amazing collection of music. Pricing is right on the money. I’ll be back next time I’m down from Oregon.

Really cool and wacky collection. Admittedly，I came mostly for the quirky dvds more than the vinyl.The main issue is that everythings about twice the price that it should be，on average.The dude owner is funny and oldschool. Nice neighbourhood guy. I told him hes got enough stuff for three stores. No reaction. Paring it down into a manageable and presentable store would do wonders.This quotation from a previous reviewer sums it up:Suggestion: find a bigger place, buy a price gun or two and hire some staff to help organize the vinyl.

The collection of records here is truly mind-boggling. I began by chatting with the owner, Rich, and meeting Charlie the dog. I told Rich I was interested in mostly classical and he pointed me first to his rare/collectible classical selection. I was amazed-many original Living Stereo, Decca and Mercury Living Presence titles. I’ve never seen so many of these holy grail pressings in the wild before. I then went downstairs for more classical and was distracted by his “audiophile” section. Rows of MFSL, Nautilus, CBS Mastersound and many others. Just amazing. All this before I even began searching for other “normal” records. Rich and Jerry’s system is a bit unusual (nothing priced; bring them the records you’re interested in, and they give you a price), but they are both extremely knowledgeable, helpful and FRIENDLY. I would say I paid a fairly high price for my selections, but my selections were very high quality. Make the trip to Wax Tax. It’s an amazing place and a great experience. And don’t worry about Charlie the dog. He’s a sweetheart when he gets to know you!

Rich Rosen is COOL!! Lots of music and memorabilia. Check it out!

I was in Las Vegas at the end of November to hang with friends and decided to go check out Wax Trax. I try to never miss a chance to visit a vintage vinyl shop. Anyway, I must have spent over three hours in there, and still didnt even get through nearly everything. In fact, I spent that much time just on 45s. I found Richs selection both deep and wide, and could have picked up a lot more than the four singles I brought home with me. Listening to some of Richs stories also made for a great day, and I very much look forward to going through more of the stacks the next time in in Vega$.

Cant understand the bad reviews. Maybe people think everything is for free and cheap but we are not at a sellout, we are in a record shop . Most of the records are from a time before I was born . So they have their fair price.The shop is the mother of record shops, if you need 45s - go there .The owner knows his stuff, is helpful and friendly. Prices are fair .Go there with a plan of what you want otherwise you waist your and the owners time or you get lost in the tons of vinyl.We really enjoyed the time there .Veronika and Grimm

Really great shop. U could spend all day at this place. Friendly helpful guys. would recommend this shop who is looking for good vinyl. A++THEY HAVE EVERYTHING

I have been to Wax Trax several times over the past 5 years, and I make a point to go every time I am in Las Vegas. I have read a number of the reviews below, and they really dont offer an accurate assessment of what this store offers to a serious vinyl collector.Having shopped in literally hundreds of vinyl stores in the US, Europe, and Asia, I would absolutely place the collection at Wax Trax in the top 2 or 3 of those for the rarity and the condition of the used vinyl. Heck yes, the price is high. And the scarcest stuff is not priced prior to check out. But simply put, you will find things here you wont find in any other brick and mortar store in this density.How about all 5 of the original Ike & Tina records on Sue? Or two original German copies of Pretty Things S.F. Sorrow? A Mint original Spanish pressing of Sticky Fingers? Or Timothy Learys original first album on ESP? Those were among my finds in a one hour visit last weekend. And that barely scratches the surface of what a serious vinyl hound can find here.I would suggest that visitors to this store with less desire for high end collectible vinyl make that clear to owner Rich Rosen on entering. There is plenty here in a more affordable and less ethereal category. But for truly dedicated vinyl addicts, this is one of the few places you can actually hold these artifacts in your hand and take home a pile of finds that you may never see again. Ill take that against the uncertainty of EBay or Discogs any day.

Place is epic, very helpful staff.I came out with some true gems

Great selection of music, but the owner was a jerk. Felt mistreated about this visit. Disrespectful to me and my brother

Rich is an American treasure. The only thing bigger than this guys wealth of knowledge of the music industry is his heart of gold. He makes everyone around him feel important and you feel good about yourself after having spent time with Rich. We need more caring in this World like Rich.

Wax Trax has by far the greatest inventory of records I have ever seen. Every record I have ever wanted to buy - from standard LPs, 45s, to live albums and bootlegs - Rich has it all. With over 40 years in the business, this guy has almost everything in his store. He is a very nice guy too, and my dad and I enjoyed a great conversation with him. This store is truly one of a kind. Being 15 years old, I havent had the chance to experience the original record stores back in the day, so every time I come across a local vinyl shop, we have to stop in. This is definitely the greatest store I have been to. My one concern was that there were 0 price tags on any of the records, so come prepared with what you are willing to pay in advance, as the records can get quite pricey. Aside from that, this place is awesome!!

Arguably one of the best record stores in Vegas for sure! Phenomenal inventory and the cool folks (Rich & Jerry) over there will work with you in terms of prices if youre direct, knowledgeable, and respectful.

Love digging in this shop. Best pleasure park in vegas for me

The owner is straight to the point kind of guy , hell ask you what music your into and point you in the right direction. His store will overwelhm you there is so much music Im sure youll find what your looking for. If you care to listen to the owner he actually a cool guy lots of interesting stories and has a good taste in music.

This is a great little store. Every record imaginable. Check out the $5 record piles. Worth the digging. I found 6 of my wishlist records. All in awesome condition.

Amazing place, incredible knowledge. Rich supplied me with what I was after and at a fair price. Youll pay a fair price here and youll get quality. Highly recommended !!If youre a bargain hunter...stick to your yard sales and ebay alerts. If youre a serious music connoisseur than youre at the right place.

You only thing the has going for it was the selection. Nothings priced, sarcastic and arrogant. Went to Wax Trax to buy my very 1st album since I was a teen. I brought 2 KISS albums and a Led Zep album up to the front desk where he looked them up on the computer. I paid thinking I got a good deal. The next day I went to another store saw the albums I bought in better that I got and he was selling them for less than 1/2 the price the old man sold them to me. Karma is a B

Great selection, friendly and knowledgeable staff. I got one of my favorite albums here. Definitely worth a look around

Very rude, and bad customer service. Prices are ridiculous. Price change upon person purchasing. Wouldn’t recommend. Go online and get cheaper. It’s 2020! (They’re probably giving themselves 4 stars to change the real reviews) #ripoff #ziabetter

Brilliant selection, Rich is a great guy with loads of knowledge and can tell you great stories.

Horrible place and person. Lot of stuff but not marked prices in any article. They re-arrange a price for you while you are waiting (i waited for 2 hours). Please dont waste your time going here, you will find better prices in whatever record store in the city

Found a TON of good stuff! Could spend hours in Wax Trax. Prices are fair and he will offer deals.

Its true, the store is pretty expensive, and for that reason the inventory is probably really, really great: no bargains, only first pressings. I bet he also pays better than anyone else to get that kind of stuff. IMO its a great shop but not for people with tight budgets.

This store is a record collectors dream! Holy Grails everywhere... and is some cases doubles and triples. Expect to pay top market value. No steals or deals. Courteous and knowledgable staff.

A great variety of quality records. No scratched up used up stuff here. If you have a record youve gone crazy looking for, youll likely find it here. Keep in mind nothing is priced on the shelf, so you may be surprised on how fast it adds up :)

With 3 stories this place is well organized and the owner and friend know where each item is just ask they are very helpful.

A solid 5 stars for selection. A solid 1 star for their pricing philosophy. Wax Trac most likely has the record you are looking for. The problem? Nothing is priced! Each record, regardless of condition is evaluated at the front counter. Research is done to ensure the owner is not giving anything away and you pay the current market value. In my humble opinion their prices are higher then what you can find on Discogs. So for me I dont need to go back and hopefully I just saved you a trip.

I wanted to love this place. I commented on how impressive the store was and I was IMMEDIATELY told I wouldnt be able to afford anything. What is this, Pretty Woman?I noticed you had to ask the price for most, if not all, of the items in the store. I found several things they wanted top dollar for that werent quite priced to quality. Knowing what I was after, I knew what it was worth, and decided against the purchase. I wasnt able to afford it, anyway.... Right?I love small businesses and at this point, I had every intention of coming back and shopping again. And then....I tried to buy a few of their bumper stickers for my boyfriend, friends, family and myself and was told they were only for people who actually bought something. Alllllrighty then.... I walked out as he continued to talk down to me. He had no idea I was gone because he refused to look at me while he spoke.I wont be back. If you like to be berated and mocked while you wait for someone to scour the internet for the top selling price of a used item.... THIS is your store.

Great place to buy and sell records and CDs

This store is a must see. The best collection of records Ive seen! Plan to stay for at least an hour to look around. Dont miss the $5 bin! I just scored some Joan Armatrading, Allman Brothers, Blues Brothers, and so much more.

I would give this place zero stars if it was not for his collection it was very good,but the prices are way out of line and are very high you get get them way cheaper online. Also owner is very rude and talks down to you

Great store, but not for the faint of heart (be prepared).I ask for a bit of advice from more seasoned collectors before visiting this place and the main gyst of what I was told was this: Amazing Selection , but your own knowledge of records will determine how much the owner charges you and I agree- its a superb shop (probably the most well-stocked record store Ive ever visited), but if youre not prepared to haggle with the owner, as well as have a lot of patience, this shop will eat you alive.I collect bootleg vinyl and since the unofficial vinyl catalogues for a lot of artists are sparse, I have to make sure that Im as up to date on my knowledge of bootleg records as possible to prevent myself from being ripped off by merchants, as a lot tend to assign random or fabricated prices to bootlegs. Even with that knowledge intact, it was still very difficult to haggle a more desirable price from the owner. He originally wanted $100 each for two double LP bootleg albums, both of which I knew were overpriced(The first one Id only go $75 or under and the second one id only go $60 or under), but after I gave them to his partner to price using online resources (along with a stack or other LPs I was interested in), they knocked down the offer to $75 each (which I was satisfied with for the first album, but felt a bit ripped on on the second). Initially, I was a bit unsatisfied with what I paid, but I had a chat with a longtime customer of the shop and he brought up a good point; this isnt a shop people go to for bargains, this is a shop that people go to for access, as the shops catalogue is undeniably massive. So while I do feel like the second album was overpriced, I do tend to agree with the sentiment that paying a bit extra is worth it for the vast range of albums this store provides (in terms of the stuff I like, it was a literal goldmine).I feel bad for only giving it three stars as it is one of the more impressive record shops Ive visited, but I do mean it when I say that this is a shop for hardcore collectors only. Anybody without a well-established knowledge of correct values and haggling skills will get eaten alive here, but for more seasoned collectors, its quite the experience.Think if it as the record shop equivalent of a double black-diamond ski run: make sure youre prepared before traversing. I only visited because I was passing through Vegas on a family vacation, but I definitely want to visit again at least once in my lifetime.

I dont write reviews...until today. I was in Vegas for work and spent an extra day to shop the local record stores. I went to 7 of them looking for mainly KISS items and each had a good selection. The one with the best selection was Wax Trax. I have been a KISS collector for 40 years and it is difficult to find something I dont already have, but it is really just the fun of looking. When I do find something that may upgrade my collection or maybe something another collector is looking for i will buy it. Well, the reviews on the owner are true. When I told him I collected KISS he said he dated Lydia Criss and when he tired of her introduced her to Peter Criss. He then went on to explain he was an expert on KISS. I politely listened to his stories on KISS merchandise and said nothing, but he was wrong on everything he said. He kept asking me to write a positive review and give him 5 stars before I purchased anything. I finally put a stack of albums on the counter for pricing. He asked if I had written the review yet. I politely said no and he got angry with me. He then had his assistant look up all the albums and gave me prices that were just unbelievable. I decline the offer and he said he was leaving the store to his son and didnt want to leave him with nothing. I said goodbye and hit the door fast. Good luck to the next customer.

It has ALOT of Inventory, but they want Top dollar/Collector pricing. Not All can afford to spend that kind of money. They have to look up pricing and that takes time and patience for All involved. Not for everyone.

Very cool shop... The owner is something of legend amongst Vegas music nuts... Rare pressings and audiophile selections abound in this 3-story shop. The prices are a bit high but its worth it for the experience and selection (which literally reaches the ceiling in some of the rooms).

If no stars was posible thats what I would pick. Disrespectful, and outright racist, selection may be good, but dont guide me to your 5 dollar deal, and then proceed to tell me the rest is to expensive. Dont judge the buyer before you get to know him/her.

Im the owner. Its the best store in USA best for records and all types of memorabilia thats music memorabilia

This place has an AMAZING selection of vinyl, not to mention movies and cds too. The guys are the nicest and will help you with anything you need, and Charley is the sweetest dog.

BEST RECORD STORE IN LAS VEGAS!!!! CHECK THEM OUT BEST DEALS AND HARD TO FIND RECORDS! THEY HAVE GOT THEM!!!

Awesome store! Friendly and welcoming! Great selection!

The Greatest Record store in LAS VEGAS! LOVE THIS PLACE.

Great stuff at retail++ pricing.Your heart will race when you walk in this little store, but your excitement will quickly turn to disappointment when Rich starts talking your ear off and quoting you prices. Rich is an entertaining fella with endless tall tales about the music industry and record hauls, but youll never get a bargain here. I bought a handful of rare soul 45s and paid the same as I would have on ebay (without all the chit chat and crate digging).Nothing is priced beforehand, so Rich looks everything up as you wait, and goes with the highest (or higher) online auction results from ebay & popsike. He apparently has a lot of mail order clients who dont know how to use a computer and will pay whatever for a record.Once was enough for me.

This place has the best selection of rare LPs I have ever encountered. Despite other reviews regarding price, I think the prices are fair. The hard to find albums I was looking for were there. Hope to return soon.......

This is actually a record museum; a joyless, bitter and unknowledgeable museum at that. Its true nothing is priced so just save the time and look it up on Discogs/popsike yourself, add 20% to the top price regardless of condition, and then you wont have to answer how much money youre willing to spend before he tells you how much the records cost. The people who say bring a lot of money got convinced records should cost as much as hes charging. They dont. Anywhere else. Plenty of actual record stores in the city, dont waste your time here.

Huge selection. Super helpful. Fairly priced.

I was totally shocked when I saw that they had all of the old stuff that I use to have years ago. Gon back with some deep pockets the next time.

This place has a phenomenal collection, packed wall to wall with LPs CDs and 45s plus memoralbelia

If you want to overpay and shop at a store where the owner could careless whether you buy anything or not then this is the place for you.I was quoted $800 for a Kiss box set that I can get for $150 on ebay.I left just shaking my head at this place.

Fair amount of albums. As others mention the owner is a circus act. No prices. You are expected to invest time looking thru things and then pay the price he shouts at you. I guess he thinks that once you are invested, time wise, youll pay. The prices he comes up with ... we are talking $80 for $10 records. I saw him ask $400 for a common. That guy walked and so did I. Life is to short.The impression I got was this guy made his money in other ways and this business is his retirement playtime. Doesnt seem to care who buys what.Personally Id rather do many other things than live in this guys realm of depressed old man. In a week I will have forgotten more about this person than anyone needs to know. And onwards we go.

Read reviews before visiting and thought cannot be as bad as remarks given, it was. Nothing priced so priced upon interest, not so great. Great place and lots on offer but attitude of owner is intimidating and unfriendly,sorry cannot recommend,☹️👎
