I've always enjoyed this bookstore. Everytime I go in I find something new that I wasn't looking for. Their unique selection of books has always made it an enjoyable experience. The staff has always been very helpful and kind, would definitely recommend.

Top dollar prices for records in bottom dollar condition. Records aren’t even sleeved or clean in their records marked NM. Shame because they have some good records but they ruin them with their storage practices and the fact they place the pricing stickers on classic record covers that will definitely leave a residue. Not sure how they price the records and even more grade them but would never buy there.

Vinyl is usually in terrible condition and over priced

A fool and his money are soon parted must be their pricing philosophy on record lp's. Fairly common $5 records priced at $19.95 or even $50.Their condition isn't tops either. There are any number of local flea markets like Trader Jacks, Rossi's etc. Ebay is far cheaper, even with shipping. There are thrift stores galore and just about every other local record store seems like a thrift store in comparison. Used record lp's are not becoming an endangered species; you would think so based on their prices.

We stumbled on Amazing Books and Records on our way to dinner, and the only reason that I left was because we had reservations (we ended up being 15 minutes late). They don't just have a bunch of used books, they have have a bunch of GOOD used books. I can't count how many used bookstores that I've gone in that didn't have anything but old diet books and paperbacks you buy right before you get on a plane (not that there's anything wrong with that, mind you, we all like Jack Reacher). I found books I've never seen new, let alone used.
We just took a quick glance at the records, and while it didn't seem to be a large selection of records it's definitely curated. You can tell that the owner really loves this stuff and is putting it out for other people to find.
Just a great, great selection of really great stuff. If I lived in Pittsburgh I'd be here at least once a week. -
