Love this used DVD/CD/LP store! They have a lot of DVDs in their bargain bin, which are between $2-$8 for most of the ones I saw. They have a children's DVD section as well. You can sell your used DVDs,CDs, and LPs to this store, or you can buy them. I love their online wishlist, which notifies me when a DVD that I want comes in stock. Sometimes, the Beat Goes On has a storewide sale. They had a 30% off sale a few weeks ago. Before the pandemic, they always had a 40% off sale in August, but that hasn't happened since.Washroom: NoneSeating: Yes, there is indoor seating.Parking: They have a free parking lot with lots of parking.Nearby Tips: Pop over to Decadently Yours, which is a stone throw away for an amazing Simply Vanilla cupcake or caramel brownie. Wellington Cakes has the best pecan tarts, if they aren't sold out. Eric the Baker also has an phenomenal brownie. Killer Cupcakes also has wonderful cupcakes (Red Velvet Nutella and the Money Cake are some of my favourites) and the Stephani cookie. See my reviews for more details.

Terrible customer service. Doesn't try helping you out when you request an album such as ordering or checking other stores.

The Beat Goes On has been here seemingly forever. They carry a wide selection of audio and video, both new and used at excellent prices. I primarily come here for LPs, and while the in-store selection will be somewhat limited due to space constraints, their online presence is excellent and you can order in anything (available) that may not be on the racks, with free pick-up at the store if you have it shipped there.The used selection is the standout here though as they seem to move a good amount of inventory over time and it's always a pleasure dropping by to see what new gems may have popped up.The staff are extremely friendly, knowledgable and provide what I've found to be highly accurate and honest evaluations of the used selection which I appreciate. The odd issue I've had with a record (which is going to happen if you're buying a lot of used LPs) has always been dealt with professionaly and fairly and I recommend this store to anyone looking to include a local retailer specializing in audio/video as a regular part of your hunt for the good stuff.

Fantastic selection and prices great customer service dangerous place LOL I added to my wish list for Christmas many items in this store and I'm going to insist my husband stays out of there so he doesn't pick up all of the Christmas presents that he would put on his wish list lol

Hands down the best and most versatile video/music store in Guelph! Me and my boyfriend frequently come here as we are those rare DVD watchers and CD listeners that still exist. The prices are unbeatable and the items are always top quality, even if they have been used. The selection is incredibly wide, I have come across some real finds with both music and movies. I’m an oldies fan, so I struck gold finding albums from Lesley Gore, Nancy Sinatra and all the jazz/big band artists.Steve and Joel are the best. They are quite the characters and are always playing innovative music while you look around. They also take the time to search up what you’re looking for and also order it in from other locations. Stay awesome Beat Goes On!

I traded in some blu-rays and dvds here. The experience was great. I had hundreds of movies to trade in, the staff quickly grabbed the items from me, took my info and got back to me within their estimated time frame.
