Best Record store in portugal

L	Lucca C. Z. P on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great collection of vinyl, CDs and cassettes that ranges from old classics to new, 180g, alternative records. The staff is really helpful, the records are all well organized in alphabetical order and the most sought out bands(Beatles, Pink Floyd,...) have their own separate section for ease of access. What really surprised me in this shop was the condition of the vinyl records: in most stores I've visited, "mint" used records still suffered from minor scratches to minor jumps in the tracks, that's totally not the case with this store. Brand new really is brand new here. This place is a must to any old music media format collector that passes through Lisbon.
A	Alex Yiaxis on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Had 1.5 hours off during a busy work schedule so rushed over to the shop only to find it shut. Had to wait 45mins to get in which limited my time in-store. Frustrating. Requested an expensive rare record they were selling on Discogs which I had to beg for them to get from the back office (did they not want the business?) plus put aside 2 other vinyl hoping for a little bit of an overall deal. When I went to pay discount was refused by the manager so ended up paying €170 for 3 x vinyl. Miserable and unfriendly staff who should treat their customers a bit better. The shop is full of stock though with lots of dollar bin records so wish I’d had more time to find some bargains. Vinyl is mostly overpriced.
M	Marco Ninni on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Amazing Aladdin cave with tons of records of pretty much any genre. One of my all time favourite places for crate digging!
R	Robert Stephan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Dizzying selection of vinyl and cd's, including some very rare finds. Be prepared to spend a lot of time in this massive shop. One star less because you can't pay with card and because 1 of the 2 staff members was grumpy.
S	Stefano on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was a little nostalgic, and on the phone with a good friend of mine who runs THE heavy metal record shop in London and going through their selection I was relieved to see that they have a solid selection of a wide range of the metal sub-genres I love. I didn't look at the rest of their stock because the metal section took me a good 30 minutes to go through and it was a tiny portion of their repertoire. I scored a copy of Black Sabbath's Volume 4, mint condition for €15. A fair price if you ask me.. All my Portuguese friends say this is Lisbon's best record shop and I wasn't disappointed! I think for the really niche stuff I'll have to go directly to the label, but the guys at the till seemed friendly enough so perhaps I'll be able to ask them for the occasional special order. All in all a very good record shop by any standard, central location and fair-ish prices.. By that I mean that you probably might not get a bargain here but you're far from being ripped off!
R	Ruben Reis on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Ive bought an LP, wich wasnt described as an pic lp without the sleeve (otherwise i wouldnt had bought it). They told me to return, paying myself the shipping costs, if i wanted the refund! I advice you to ask for pictures before you buy. The costumer service , didnt even ask appologies for theyre mistake, and they reply just ok. Theres tons of other (and better) stores than this garbage PS: i must add that they never assume theyre faults, besides super arrogants. Try any other store if you are an proper collector, because this one its the worst.
Á	Ángel Castro on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very eclectic and well maintained selection of highly interesting second hand vinyls, 10 € each, with a very good promotion "take 5 for 40 €". Will definitely come back when in Lisbon again.
o	odobigode on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I am very glad I walked in this shop and got that American Beatles record I found. If you ever go to Lisbon and love vinyl records, that's a place to visit.
