From the reviews

Amazing book and record store. I had an unhealthy obsession with anything Baby-Sitters Club related when I was young and ended up donating all of my books to the public library as an adult, a choice that always haunted me. Luckily, Don had two shelves full for me to pick from for 99 cents a book.

Took a last minute road trip to Wyoming and found this bookstore. I could’ve spent all day in there! The owner was also super nice. I’m still in so much shock that I found a first edition of The Hundred and One Dalmatians 😳 and for only $2.99. I seriously never have this kind of luck.

★★★★★ — Haylee, Mar 2021

This is a true music lover's paradise. I stopped in on a road trip and could not have been more surprised. The quality and selection were fantastic. I purchased a ton of books and music; the pinnacle of my selection was a limited edition Chris Cornell box. But what made the experience great was the personal touch.

★★★★★ — Myke, Nov 2021

My husband and I checked out this record store on a whim while passing through Cheyenne, and I'm so glad we did! The selection and prices are great, everything seemed to be in really good condition, and we even found some real gems in the 99 cent section. The owner was working and he was a joy to interact with.

Selling or trading gear at Downtown Vinyl

Downtown Vinyl comes up for buying and trading used gear — confirmed on their own site. Two things make the trip go better. First, bring the whole package: the case or gig bag, the original tremolo arm or bridge parts, the paperwork if you have it — a complete rig is worth real money more than a bare instrument, and it saves the back-and-forth of "can you bring the case in?" Second, know that trade credit almost always beats the cash offer, usually by a healthy margin — if you're upgrading anyway, price your old gear as a trade against the new one before you take cash. Either way, expect the offer to be below what the gear sells for on the wall; the gap is the store's margin for setup, warranty, and sitting on it until the right buyer walks in.
