Neptoon Records

Great service, and lots of inventory. Unfortunately, I found that most of the used record inventory was throw away - quantity over quality - It felt like rummaging through a salvation army and finding a few good titles mixed in with lots of filler. Also, several albums I was interested in were in very poor condition for the price. Most albums were a minimum of $10, which was not in line with what other stores in Vancouver were charging for used records, particularly based on the poor to average quality. In most other stores in Vancouver, I purchased tons of rare gems in excellent quality for competitive prices (Beat Street, Red Cat). At Neptoon, I only walked out with two albums and one of them was still sealed. The other was an average condition album on my checklist so I bought it. Again, I'm very pleased that record stores continue to exist, but of the eight stores in Vancouver I've visited over the past 3 months, this was my least favorite. Great service, very nice people in the store, but the prices are way too high for the quality of the merchandise. My advice is to reduce your prices for used albums and improve the selection and categorization. The categorization was quite poor; I spent most of 2 hours digging through miscellaneous letters whereas Red Cat and others had 90% of artists categorized so it didn't take me long to get through the inventory. I didn't look at the new album selection but there seemed to be a good quantity - so maybe this is a better place for new albums than it is for used. Your mileage may vary, but my experience was not a positive one.

Love! Punk jams playing over the speakers, bunks packed full of great new and used vinyl to dig through. Lots of cool punk and oddball stuff for sure. Nice selection of 45s. I got to talking to Rob, the owner, and he was super sweet to chat with, so accommodating and friendly. Cool Neptoon merch, big selection of music magazines. Check it out.

Great selection of collectable albums, a part of our heritage. Nardwar has built a legacy there.

Excellent. This record store makes me think back to when I was young. Awesome staff/owner. Check them out even if you're not looking to buy or sell.

best record store in vancouver from my own personal knowledge and opinion. the overall atmosphere is very pleasant and has me feel at peace when browsing records. kind staff, and a wonderful, vast collection of used records like no other.

Large selection of records covering most genres. Good prices.The titles on my list were available (plus a few more catching my eye!).We enjoyed a delightful conversation with Rob. Thanks for taking time out for us.

It’s a good spot! Not as awesome of a selection as say beat street records but hey you never know you might bump into the NARD MAN!!!! DOOT DOOLA DOOT DOOT

Neptoon has a good selection of new and used vinyl. If you still collect CDs, moreover, they have a huge number of used CDs as well. Great little record store, albeit a bit cramped from them having so much in stock!

These guys are INCREDIBLE and SO ACCOMODATING! Honestly, I can't recommend buying here enough. I bought online - they respond fast, and it's super easy to organise collection/delivery. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would.
