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 3,120 sq ft one 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'll probably 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.  
Places like ours are common 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?

We'll consider it.  Contact us with what you have, and we'll let you know.  In most cases, 
we offer a 2-of-yours-for-one-of-ours trade for items of comparable value with tapes, 
movies, or CDs. 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.  
If you're out of town, you'd need to send what you're trading (at your expense). 
If we accept your trade, great-if not, we'll send it back with your order.  
Be sure to CONTACT US first.

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.
