Who Are You Guys?    

Recycled Records is a secondhand retail music store that has served 
Reno/Sparks and Northern Nevada since 1978.  Recycled Records 
opened in 1978 and was purchased in late 1980 by the current operator, 
PAUL DOEGE
.  The Main store has been at its current location since 
December 2007, after being at South Virginia  and Kietzke for 24 years.  
The University store opened in 1997, closed in 2008,  and replaced a 
former 2nd store in Sparks(1988-1993).  We now only have the one 
1,920 sq ft store at Kietzke and Moana.

Do you buy Records, Tapes and CDs?

Let's be gentle about this.  We're dealers- fast and easy, but we don't pay 
as much.  First and foremost, you need to have an appointment to sell to us.  
There are too many people selling these days, and we need to control our 
outlay of cash.  If you just walk in on us, you might be wasting a trip.  
So call us at 775-826-4119 to schedule one.  We do not make appointments 
online.  When we buy, we go thru your stuff, take what we want, and pass  
on what we don't.  On what we take, we average .50-$1 per record, .25-.50 
per tape or VHS and $1-$3 per CD/DVD, in most cases.  On special pieces 
(usually stuff we'll sell quickly for $100 or over), we'll offer a 50% consignment.  
As a result, we're not that interested in out-of-area buys because shipping is prohibitive. 
You can find places like ours in most cities, particularly around 
college campuses. As we always say, the best way to make the best money 
is to sell the stuff yourself. Do the homework and hit eBay, Goldmine, or have 
a garage sale.  

Can we trade?

Contact us with what you have, and we'll let you know.  
In most cases, we offer a 2-of-yours-for-1-of-ours trade for items of 
comparable value
with tapes, movies, or CDs. We'll have to go through 
your stuff to determine what we want, and, like buying, will take what
we want and pass on what we don't, then we'll assign a trade value dollar 
amount for you to spend.  Records can get trade value toward other records 
or cassettes only, and will be represented by a fixed dollar amount.  
Other than that, it's a cash value.  Trade works towards media only, not
accessories, services, or turntables.
Be sure to CONTACT US first.  775-826-4119

Can we deal?

Sure we can.  Remember, the more you spend, the better your chances.  
We have everyday deals on CDs, Tapes, VHS and DVDs.  Store deals include 
most unmarked cassettes at 3 for $10(see Whatta Deal!).  Buy any 2 CDs or 
DVDs and we'll knock off $2 and include the tax.  Spend at least $20 in vinyl, 
and we'll knock a few bucks off. VHS are $5 each or 6 for $20, tax included.  
Double VHS count as one (Godfather, Braveheart, Titanic...).   Unless your 
online
order is at least $40, we won't offer a deal.
