What's on the wall
“They have an amazing selection of DVDs, from classic films to the latest releases, and even some rare finds you won’t see anywhere else.”
“Great selection of used DVDs, Blu-rays, VHS, CDs, vinyl, video, game systems, and more.”
What players say again and again

“The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, always ready to recommend a great movie or help you find what you’re looking for.”
“I also found a couple of INXS CDs, but ended up just getting "The Very Best" compilation, about 40 hits for a good price.”
From the reviews
I love this place. If you remember BLOCKBUSTER, and you loved it, please visit Movie Trading Company. You can peruse the aisles and see the movies you want or go in with a list and pick them up.
The store wasn't crowded and had good selection. So good in fact that I went to get a few games and they were all sold out. And the staff were nice and helpful too. I suggest this place to any retro video game fans.
Great finds, helpful staff, cool ambience, would come back, would recommend. I went in looking for some CDs, and I found NIN's Ghosts: I-IV, an old, somewhat niche album, that I was looking to add to my collection.
I absolutely love Movie Trading Company. They have an amazing selection of DVDs, from classic films to the latest releases, and even some rare finds you won’t see anywhere else. The store is well-organized, making it easy to browse, and the prices are very reasonable.
Selling or trading gear at Movie Trading Company
Movie Trading Company 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.
