We Buy Collections Daily

Big or small, old or new, all vinyl collections are important to our business. If you have fewer than 200 records, you don't need an appointment, just drop in any day but Tuesday. (We don't have a buyer on staff on Tuesdays.) If you have a large collection, call us at 614-586-1918 during store hours to make an appointment. Typically, our buyers don't flip through your collection and toss out a number. We go through the entire collection, cleaning and pricing each record, and offer you half of our new sticker value. Our process takes a little longer than other stores, but we believe in paying well for records kept in good condition. We also buy cassettes, CDs, pinball machines, reels, and memorabilia.

Stay Connected - Instagram

Here's Tobias from Ghost playing our Dolly pinball machine at the original location. We post stuff like this, plus the upcoming Friday (NEW VINYL) releases on Instagram.

Stay Connected - Facebook

When Billy Corgan comes to visit, you are going to hear all about what he bought on our Facebook. And, yes, he is completely cool and nice in person.

We also use Facebook to tell customers about special deals, events, new releases, and incoming used collections.

Record Store Day 2025

Spoonful Records is a great place to spend Record Store Day! We pride ourselves on being organized and expeditious, and hosting an amazing selection of the RSD exclusive releases. We open at 8am on RSD, but start passing out checklists around 6am. After the line dwindles, we pause to rearrange the store, and re-open for browsing, usually around 10am. PLEASE visit our FB Event page for all the details:
