Preserving Record Shop

Preserving Record Shop Hours for the week announced every Sunday evening. If Google says we're open ... we are open! Please call into the shop to make these arrangements.

PRESERVING takes prides in paying fair, transparent prices for collections both large and small. Finding himself frustrated with other stores often making insulting offers, owner AJ Rassau found himself sometimes traveling as far Japan in order to receive fair trade-in values for his collection.

​Over the past two years of running the store, it has become a sense of personal pride to send customers away feeling good about not only the amount of cash or trade value they received, but the fact that they know their collection is being given the time and respect deserved and, most importantly, being put into the hands of a new generation of music lovers. While most small trades can be handled in a short time span, larger collections of higher-ticketed items can be dropped off, researched overnight and an itemized spreadsheet will be made available with a breakdown per unit. We also are willing to travel for large collections to be inspected with offers made. We are open to any and all forms of music. Full length albums from the 60s to today are preferred but anything will be given the time of day. Vinyl preferred but always taking CDs, cassettes and band shirts as well. We do not take 45s, 78s or 8 Tracks (unless you are looking to donate them).

We are officially back into show season which means we're open like all the time.
