- Rarely to record stores leave me speechless, but Wax Trax is not your typical record shop. More rare records per square foot than any other shop I've been in. Everywhere you look there are the rare and super rare records.
You won't get away cheap tho; no $50 records for $5, the staff know their stuff and will work with you on a fair market price. Be nice to them and they'll be nice back (I'm speaking from experience as I bought a small but powerful stack). cheers!
He has the records that you might want, but they are priced to not sell. More of a museum.
This is one of the most impressive store collections I've ever seen.
The large inventory is not a surprise if, in fact, none of the records are priced. I believe it is a cardinal sin for a record shop to have no prices, and then have them looked up on the fly on eBay or elsewhere. This is a disgusting business practice, and I would never shop there. Disclaimer, I have not been to this store, nor do I know how they operate.. I'm just reacting to other comments. I did, however, experience this in a New Jersey shop, and it was truly repugnant.
After watching your video, I decided to check this place out..I thinking about my little visit, I was overwhelmed by the selection of Records that was in the store. When I came in, he stopped me and explained the layout of the store and was a little snotty when I told him I was interested in Jazz section. I went down there and there was another customer who warned me that he charges top dollar for his Bluenote albums. Nothing was marked and you only found out about the cost when you brought your selection to the counter. In the half hour I was there, I chose 5 albums. Unfortunately only one of them I could afford while the others were priced over $200.00. Okay, I thought, I got the one record, but in thinking, if he was going to charged so much for his inventory, I wish he would have treated them accordingly by cleaning the records and putting them in sleeves. Well, it was interesting and I don't think I would make a return visit. But I think collectors should go for the experience.
I found grails on my last 3hrs in Vegas before my flight back to Cali. Bangers
Hi Nate. This store is UN- Believable!!!!!!!!! My favourite I have ever seen on YT. How did u walk out not spending over $1K !!! I’m sure they’re not cheap but as u say as a museum - mannnnnnn.
I visited Vegas earlier this year and stopped at this store. The selection is top notch but the majority of these albums can still be located at other stores elsewhere. As previously commented, none of the albums are priced. I brought a used Accept-Stalingrand album to the front desk and was quoted $50.00. I laughed and left. I waited till I returned home and bought it for new for $20.00 cheaper.
I'm going today can't wait to take this field trip!!
Wow wow no 1 attraction in Las Vegas for sure......... I was just playing at my channel the Trio Mocoto magical debut and just out of magic it appeared at the just in section........... It must be an expensive shop to keep having so much goodness still............ Nate you just found a gold mine............
I'll try and check it out this weekend.
Nate thanks for sharing man those Blue notes my mouth is watering I would love to find a love supreme stereo I do have a mono. Wow that Sonny Rollins live at the village Vanguard OMG love that condition man that shop is a dream
This is Heaven? Owww!
Literally Wall To Wall Records!! Amazing!!
Notice how none of the records have price tags? That should tell you something about Wax Trax right off the bat. He has all kinds of killer records because no one's dumb enough to pay twice the going rate for something. Owner probably wants $40 for that crap Loggins and Messina record. Go read Wax Trax yelp reviews. That'll tell you everything.
I wonder if the Chicago store in Lincoln Park where I used to by records back in the 70's and 80's is still around.

Nice Video Man! ;)
Nate - check out the low star reviews on YELP. As you watch this video did you notice nothing has a price on it? Everything and I mean everything, has no price. If you are interested in a record you bring your record up to the front desk. The owner or manager then looks up the current market value on various sites similar to or actually to Discogs or Rootsvinyl. Only then are you quoted a price. Personally if I want to pay full price I will just go on Discogs select NM- and send my money in. However if price is no object this is the place to go to due to their selection.
Paradise on earth 😍😍😍
Warped vinyl in that heat.
