FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Do you buy used records/CDs/tapes/etc?
Yes! We are always buying used merchandise at our 7th Street location. We do not do buying/trade at our Congress location. We offer cash and/or trade credit. Please note that we mostly buy in vinyl and are more selective about CDs and cassettes. You are welcome to call ahead of time to see if we would be interested in your collection.
How much can you give me for my used records?
It depends on a lot of factors, most importantly cleanliness and demand. The best way to find out what we could pay for your used records is to bring them in.
When can I bring in my records?
You can bring in your used records any time that we are open at our 7th Street location! For collections of larger than 100 records, we recommend giving us a call ahead of time.
Do you only sell records?
We also carry new and used cassettes and CDs!
Beyond that, we also have a selection of turntables, DVDs, VHS, books, zines, vinyl equipment and accessories, enamel pins, posters, patches and more!
What kind of turntables do you carry?
We carry Audio-Technica & Rega turntables (check the “Store” tab for models and availability) and Edifier speakers. We do not offer shipping on these items at this time. If you have any questions about our turntables, feel free to stop in or give us a call to chat with us!
What’s the difference between your two locations?
Both of our locations carry new and used vinyl. Our 7th Street location has a larger vinyl selection, and our Congress Street location offers a bar with beer, wine and non-alcoholic beverages. We also host events at our Congress Street location. You can stay up-to-date on our upcoming events on our website or Instagram.
How do I get my band booked for a show at your Congress location?
Email us! You can reach us at woodentoothrecordsbooking@gmail.com for all booking inquiries. Include as much helpful info as you can, such as some background on your band, links to some samples of your music, and when you’re looking for a gig. Please keep in mind that our calendar is usually booked out 2-3 months in advance.
Before reaching out to try and book a gig, we also highly suggest that you come check out some shows at our venue! It’s a small stage in an intimate space, and seeing it beforehand will probably be very useful in visualizing if it will be a good fit for your band.
*We listen to all submissions and contact those acts which we are planning on booking. This follow up may take anywhere from a week to a month. We do not confirm submissions, or follow up with acts that we are not planning on booking. Please do not contact us to see if we received your submission, as the volume is quite high.*
