From the reviews
Rad staff and great selection of all genres. I always stop by and have added many records to my personal collection from the shop. Highly recommended if you are looking for well known to rare vinyl!
Cool vinyl place tucked on the Main Street of South Park. Vinyls are vintage and present day artists. Variety of genres and artists to choose from. Staff was very friendly and attentive.
This place definitely gets a 5 star for the vibes. Really cool shop and love the layout. They have a solid variety of new stuff. There’s also a decent amount of used options, though sometimes it can feel picked through. But they seem to get a lot of stuff in so really depends on the day.
A great little vinyl shop with lovely helpful staff. It's packed with loads of new and used vinyl and is well worth a couple of hours of your time whilst in San Diego. Go through the many bargains out in the crate diggers area at the rear. The prices are very reasonable and my purchases were in very good condition.
Selling or trading gear at Vinyl Junkies Record shack
Vinyl Junkies Record shack 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.
