"There’s an assumption that if you want to find a great record store in Atlanta, you have to head to the Liberalized, dirty, psuedo-Bohemian parts of town. But just down Pharr from all the high-end retail madness, you’ll find Fantasyland Records, a buy-sell-trade store operating since 1976. Along with an impressive selection of old and new music on vinyl and CD, the store sells some of the best $7 rock ‘n’ roll posters that could ever adorn a dorm wall. There’s also dedication to other nerdist hobbies, including a small section devoted to baseball card collectors." - Office of Brothers

Fantasyland Records sells records from every artist of every genre imaginable, including those from modern artists like She & Him and Washed Out. There's a section of records for $5 as well as CDs, cassettes, and posters."

Wow! Just wow! Fantasyland is a treasure trove of music goodness and joy! This place has it all and more. Those hard to find titles and rare pressing can be found at this location. Go see the good folks at Fantasyland Records, you’ll find what you’re looking for.

Curious place. Very good selection that is well-organized. A wide variety of Jazz, Rock, Pop, R&B, New Wave, Alternative, and everything in between. Pricing was generally on point with Discogs median, if not a bit high on a few records. Some records that I brought up, though, were repriced with a sticker on top of the old one. A bit peculiar.

Amazing selection, very kind owner to keep the store open past closing so I could make my selection!

Great record store! Excellent selection of LPs from every "era" and genre. We purchased rock, folk, and blues LPs plus a Stevie Nicks poster for our granddaughter and a 60's concert poster for us. Folks were friendly and knowledgeable. We'll return when we are back on town.

I have visited this store for the last four years, but today was my last time. The older gentleman checking me out, tossed my debit card on the counter when completing the transaction, instead of handing it back to me like I handed it to him initially. I felt like that was a rude and just poor customer service. I should have said something, but didn’t and that’s on my part. The times I have visited, I haven’t always gotten a proper greeting like a customer should, but looked past it because of the quality products. I won’t contribute it to other factors, but there’s always a vibe you get… Anyways, it left a bad taste in my mouth and sadly they’ve lost a customer. Hopefully this doesn’t happen to anyone else.

Listen. I don’t normally write Google reviews. I mean, who has the time, right? And I hardly ever leave bad ones unless the staff is straight-up disrespectful. But this? This has stuck with me since 2019, so here we go. I walk into this place, and they’ve got conservative talk radio playing. Weird vibe for a record shop, but whatever—I’m not here for their taste in politics, I’m here for the vinyl. I find a Neil Young record. Cool, right? The guy rings it up, and then—get this—he tosses it, like tosses it, from four feet above the counter. It slams down like flat it’s a frisbee, not a flat piece of wax. At first, I thought, maybe this guy just hates Neil Young because of his liberal views. Or maybe he just doesn’t like him. Either way, super unprofessional, super unnecessary. I made a mental note to never step foot in here again. And yeah, I haven’t.

Fantasyland is a perfect name for this gem of a record shop. You can find just about anything to fill your heart’s desire. Just getting back into vinyl after a 35 year hiatus. This shop has a mind bending collection of albums of every genre and most artist, andvis constantly adding stuff. The prices are very reasonable and satisfaction is guaranteed. What more could anyone ask for?

Solid selection of new and used vinyl as well as cds at fair value. Certainly worth a stop if you're in the area.

This record store had a great selection of vinyl records, CDs, and cassette tapes. I also liked the posters and how the store was decorated. Unfortunately, I didn't like the microaggressions I received from two of the employees. And based on some of these other reviews from Yelp and Google, it seems like this isn't the first time the employees have done this, especially to other customers of color.

Hubs and I had our first (and last) visit on 2/24 around 2pm. It was pretty busy and we were the only black people there. About 5 or so minutes into our visit we realized we were being followed around the store. We continued shopping and waited to make sure. We confirmed it when the gentleman aggressively pushed the records to the back of the box 10 seconds after we finished looking. We tried to brush it off but every time we looked up, he was a foot away sighing and shuffling the records we touched. He only did it to us. The only thing missing was him yelling, "Hurry up and buy!" Smh. We got our 4 albums ($125) and left. I was so hurt I called the store 10 min later. The older white guy with curly gray hair said he remembered us because we were "one of the nice ones." That didn't help. As I calmly explained he became defensive and told us what we experienced didn't happen. He said that "they have issues with people taking albums in the back room." I never went back there and my husband read the THREE signs and understood. I continued with more details and said he only did it to us -- the only black people in the entire store. His reply? "Sorry you perceived it that way." Wow. In 2024, no less. So yea. Never going back.

You can literal get lost for hours and only spend 15 dollars, likes it 1989, Again. The old heads are cool and it's big enough that you don't feel trapped in a nostalgia dungeon.

Good balance of CDs and vinyl. Not a huge metal/hardcore selection, but still has some good albums. Items are priced well and the rock selection is great.

One of the most organized disorganized record stores I've ever been in. This place is a real dig. Everything is alphabetized, but they have rock mixed in with soul (two completely opposite genres that should never be mixed). Also this store is very pricey. I found a few records that caught my interest, but every record I was finding over $8, I would look up online and see that it's cheaper even with shipping. For example this record I attached photos of, they wanted $50 for it when it's online for $15. That's only one example. The entire store is like this, and it made it tough to make a purchase. They have some boxes on a table in the back full of $5 records (poor selection), but they're a mix of all genres (again a dig). Why not have a $5 box for each genre? Is that too difficult to do? Also, if you go to look at records in the backrooms, they will take your records from you (store policy apparently). I'm not sure the purpose of this? Explain how someone in a tshirt and basketball shorts can steal a stack of records? If you guys are that paranoid, you should get cameras. Pros: - Large Selection - Parking Cons: - Rock mixed in with Soul music - Staff follows you around in the store, takes your stack - Way too overpriced

I've never seen a music store with more music (CD's, vinyl, cassettes - DVD's - maybe more) that is as less organized than any record I have ever seen. There's multiple rooms of somewhat categorized music that's extremely difficult to peruse, search, or even flip through. I saw a CD soon after I started going through the rows and a few minutes later couldn't not find it again to save my life. *People would literally buy more and spend more money here if they were to alphabetize and organize their music.* A perfect example is that I saw the same album located in five different places through the store. Picture rows of cardboard boxes vaguely grouped by genre and largely out of order. That's Fantasyland. Another issue I have is on average their products are fairly shoddy. Out of any stack of ten albums I'd say you could expect covers to be dusty or scratched, cases in various conditions and discs often in questionable condition. I picked up several albums of interest and set all too many back down due to being in too poor a condition. I try to stay on the Very Good or Like New level whenever possible and had trouble finding things to buy here for this reason as well as the whole lack of order issue I previously mentioned. Too many of the boxes are marked as New Arrivals which are full of unrelated and randomly scattered music. I wouldn't waste my time to go back.

I understand they are trying to do the most with the space that they have - but I would totally blow the place up and start over with how they have it organized. It's tight and crowded with no real flow. It's almost more like going through an estate sale than a fun record shopping experience. And not real fault of their own, since most places are the same, but the metal selection was severely lacking and there were metal and punk titles mixed in with other genres. Can tell they are lacking support in those areas.

I've known this store forever; even when it was still @ the older location on P'tree. Mark is fantastic. It was also the only place for a long time to find rare CDs/albums.

Stacks of Tracks that will take you back. Great selection of used records just wish the Reggae/Dancehall/Jamaican selection were bigger.

Brian P.

Yelp
Huge selection of music in numerous formats to choose from. Having gone to many record stores in my life, I was very impressed here with the large variety of genres and eras of listings available. Very good prices and the owner was friendly as well. Highly recommended for both new and (especially used) music. This is a worthy stop for music lovers in the Greater Atlanta area.

Matthew S.

Yelp
The selection was great, but they don't properly vet their merchandise. I bought my wife a copy of what was marked as a 2nd press of an old Rolling Stones 10" for quite a bit of money. It was in a plastic sleeve, taped shut, with a sticker saying not to open. I asked the guy working if he was sure it was authentic, and he said he was as sure as he could be. Upon getting back to Michigan, I've learned it is 100% a counterfeit bootleg of the press, which would have been easy to tell by checking the run-out grooves. Be careful here, and check what you are buying carefully. Insist on having them open up a package if you are unsure, and don't let them rush you as you inspect it. I don't believe they did this intentionally, but it never should have happened in the first place, especially if they felt confident enough to mark this as a "2nd pressing." Don't believe their expertise.

Fantasyland is an Atlanta staple with lots of character (truly an old, vintage record shop) with an impressive collection across the genres. I stop here every time I'm in ATL and have definitely spent over $500. They have things that you simply don't find at other places (old Zeppelin demos, rare pressings, soundtracks galore, and the BEST poster collection anywhere in Atlanta...bar none). I can't speak highly enough of the staff and the sheer volume of records they have. A must-visit, especially if classic rock or 60s-90s generally is your vibe. However there are several things to look out for. First, organization. There are simply too many records here, but this has already been discussed I'll leave it at that. Second: BOOTLEGS! I don't know if it's a lack of diligence or dishonest labeling but one almost found myself spending lots of money on rare records only to find out they are bootlegs (they were selling a Tool record for $50 today that was never actually released on vinyl). Lastly, I wish they work focus on variety a bit more w/r/t metal, grunge, alternative, etc. They do a good job of with new vinyl but they're metal section is pretty much 2 bins while they're soundtrack/vocalist sections are huge. Overall, this is a great store and I will keep giving them my time and money. If you're in Atlanta, you need to check out Fantasyland, you're guaranteed to find something for you

One of the better goth vinyl selections I've seen in the area. Love this place! Friendly staff. The space is tight but it's pretty well organized and there's also a great selection of posters, cassettes, and CDs.

Arguably the best record shop in metro Atlanta! Absolutely amazing selection, well-organized (albeit a bit crowded) but chock full of classics and new releases from across the spectrum of genres and eras. The staff is very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. The used product is in excellent condition, thanks in large measure to meticulous care from the staff. One could spend many hours and a fortune here, thanks to the vast array of treasures within.

I've been to most of the record stores in Atlanta, and this one is my favorite hands down.You might not have expected it from a location in Buckhead, but they have the best selection and prices I've found. This includes their used selection - you can buy affordable used records that aren't all warped like they are at other locations. If you have a record player - go here. You will not be disappointed.

Yesterday, I went here for the first time. The music collection was amazing however the environment and vibe felt off. To be very honest, the vibe felt a bit racial mixed with a touch of prejudice. As a black man, I know what it feels like to be rushed out of a store because they don't want me there and this was the feeling I got here. Spent $15 on cd's but I won't be returning to spend anymore money here. I told the owner, "I aspire to have my own store one day" and he told me "Well work hard and you may have it". Work hard? Who are you talking too? What about some advice? He didn't want me there and made it plain.

Must goto place for record collector of any genre... This only few record stores that carries tones of vinyls and cd and cassettes but is the cheapest of them all. Its hard to find good CLEAN records for $3-$5 per say. Sometimes you get the original copy instead of promotion copy or reprints. Marc (manager) is super cool and very helpful too. Parking is limited next to the store under some apartment garage~~~. Enjoy the treasure hunt :)

Yelp
Terrific store. Mark and Andy are friendly and helpful. Huge selection of used LPs in all genres, plus new records, CDs, DVDs and posters. Prices are fair. Parking inside the building (you'll figure it out). Open a bit later than some stores (I believe 7 PM) which accommodates 9-to-5ers.

My first visit to Fantasyland was back in August of 1980 (the original location on Peachtree Street)... and to this day, whenever I'm in ATL, I ALWAYS make this one of my first visits. I have so many great memories over the years with Mark and Mr. Folio, remembering the many LPs I've purchased over time and the many hours I've spent in their shop. If you're looking to sell your vinyl, you won't get a better deal; they are as fair as they come. There's even free parking just around the corner. In over half a century of record collecting, if there's a better record shop around, I've yet to see it.

Have lived in Atlanta for 27 years and have been going to Fantasyland as one of my very favorite stores anywhere in the U.S. Deep vinyl for all genres, Rock, Jazz, Classical, Soundtracks, Country, Pop, Vocal, R&B. Prices are very reasonable. Over the years I have found countless collectible vinyl. Even during the CD boom, Fantasyland kept stocking vinyl. They have a very large collection of CD's too. Posters. Very collectible and rare vinyl and 45's. Imports. You can easily spend 2-3 hours browsing and buying. Andy (owner) and Mark have always been welcoming, friendly and helpful. They let you listen to a particular vinyl or CD. They also have a very large collection of live recordings on CD and DVD. If you live in Atlanta or visit on business or personal, make a point to visit Fantasyland. A smaller (space) version of Amoeba. Right in the heart of Buckhead. Free parking.

This store earns some major points for size and general amount of inventory. It consists of three big rooms full of vinyl, cds, cassettes (it has the biggest selection of cassettes that I've seen at any store,) comics, magazines, posters, pins, stickers, and other collectibles. It also has a cool section of bootleg cds that record live shows in the area. The nice surrounding area and available parking are also pluses. I didn't conversate with the employees, but I heard them talking to other customers and they seemed friendly and helpful. The store loses its first star, however, for its lack of Hip Hop. There's maybe 4 short boxes of Hip Hop cds (all mainstream common stuff) and a couple crates half full of Hip Hop vinyl (all mainstream common stuff.) I don't subtract a star solely because I was looking for Hip Hop, but also because this store is in Atlanta - a huge hub for Hip Hop music...arguably the most popular genre today! Surely they could stock up (especially with local stuff) way better. The store loses its second star for the overall condition of things. I'll say here that the store is very disorganized in just about everyway - there is stuff all over the place (lots of closed boxes) and you really have to take the time to find what you're looking for. While I dislike this, I don't subtract anything based on this disorganization alone as I know some people enjoy "digging" in every sense of the word. However, I do hold it against a store when they stock stuff that even the most liberal Goodwill might turn away. I found lots of grossly stained vinyl and cassette covers - some of which looked like they had blood and/or chocolate sprayed across them. There's lots of the vinyl and cds that are very very badly scratched up and are missing covers. There's also a fair amount of straight up burned cds of popular acts/releases....like seriously? I get that all this may make one feel like they're somehow more "authentic" but for me it was a pass. Additionally, pricing seemed either normal or slightly high for a lot of stuff. Overall, I'm glad I stopped by here. The store has a fine atmosphere and there's lots of odds and ends to check out. That said, I have no plans of visiting this place again anytime soon.

BUYER BEWARE! I bought music here on and off for over 25 years, but never again. I am a CD holdout. While others embrace or re-embrace vinyl or flock to downloads and streaming, I still prefer CDs and feel they offer more bang for music buck than any other option, especially used. I have over 2,300 discs in my collection. Unfortunately, as my collection has grown and the general public abandons CD, the selection at Fantasyland has grown increasingly static. The CD inventory simply doesn't turn over like it used to and much of what I find there that I like I all ready own. I get that, but I've still enjoyed popping into Fantasyland and hunting for some obscurity or new discovery that I may have overlooked even though I'm buying less and searching harder. I've generally ended up picking up about 1-2 discs from them per month. I don't especially care what a used disc looks like as long as it plays all the way through without skips and I had never, ever had a problem at Fantasyland until my last visit. I bought a fairly obscure solo album by Jon Anderson of Yes and headed to my car with it. My car stereo is nothing fancy, but it does the job. However, the disc had a major skip less than a minute into the first track. I took the disc out and saw a couple of gouges in the playing area that were likely the cause. So less than an hour after purchasing this CD I head back to Fantasyland to ask for my $7 back. I felt bad about it, but a disc that skips like that is simply no good to me. Mark, who has worked there as long as I've been going there, cleaned the disc and tried it in the store player and it played OK so I agreed to try it again. However, the flaw was still there in my car so I made an audio recording of the skip on my phone as evidence and went back in again. Mark very graciously gave me my money back. Unfortunately, Andy, the owner, decided to seize this opportunity to be bitter and snippy. He told me very haughtily not to ever expect a refund again unless it skipped in the store player when this was the first time I've EVER brought anything back. I replied that I couldn't believe he was giving me grief over a $7.00 CD I had bought less than an hour ago when I'd been coming there for so long. He tried to give me some sort of lame guilt trip over not buying enough and then told me I needed to get a decent CD player. Words were exchanged that are not suitable for reproduction on a "family" site and I am done with Fantasyland. I'm sorry to say that Andy's approach to "customer service" is not that of a canny businessman. It's not as if I requested special treatment above and beyond what I'd expect from any retail outlet. Why should I accept store credit (as Andy implies I should have done in his comment below) and not my cash back when the defective item had been in my possession for less than an hour? Just be warned because if a music fanatic like me can get treated like that after so many years of shopping there, then the general public probably has absolutely no shot if you happen to have a problem with something you purchase at Fantasyland. People should also be warned that they sometimes sell burned CD-Rs as "used" discs and also sell concert recordings burned onto CD-R for big $$ that are swapped for free on sites like dimeadozen.org and offered to members on the condition that they NOT be sold. Sketchy.

I love the feeling of stumbling on a place and getting lost for hours. Its very rare that I actually remember how much I love second hand record stores, and when I do come across a gem (like FantasyLand) I can spend hours sifting through dusty records and out of date media - its very zen, right up there with watching Antiques Roadshow. Fantasyland is exactly what a used record store should be: no frills, no fuss... just piles and piles of music, great prices, and like minded patrons (most of whom look like they fell asleep in the seventies and just woke up last week). While I stuck to the vinyl on this trip, I was noticing their large selection of DVDs, CDs, tapes, posters and buttons.

After a few minutes of browsing through the extensive collection of used LPs I found myself asking why I had not come in sooner. They have a huge selection of used LP's in all sorts of genres and it is very well organized. I have been to several other shops in and outside of Atlanta where you spend hours digging through bins that are barely organized by genre, let alone alphabetically. Not the case at Fantasyland and not only are they organized by genre and alphabetically, all the vinyl records I looked at had been cleaned and were in great condition. The prices were very reasonable too. They have some new records too as well as a ton of used CD's, cassettes, and posters. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable if you need them to be, but otherwise they leave you alone to browse. If you love music you have to come check this place out. I will definitely be back very very soon.

Yelp
Great place to find classic, vintage vinyl at a good price. Their prices are more than fair. Just go in there and poke around. I go about every other week and just poke around for about 30-45 minutes. The staff leaves you alone but will answer any question. It's nice to find a place where the vinyl actually outnumbers the CDs! I picked up a rare Neville Brothers live album for 5 bucks last week and was a happy camper! I'll continue to pop in every other week to see what kind of gems I can unearth in that place. They also sell stuff like old ticket stubs, buttons, tshirts and old magazines. Gotta love it!

Stop by here on a Sunday on your way home from brunch at Chick-Fil-A. Just kidding. Like Chick-Fil-A, Fantasyland is closed on Sundays. Fantasyland's fortes are vinyl, collectible vinyl, "public performance" CDs, DVD movies, and used magazines. Come here for vinyl before you go anywhere else. Used CD selection has slipped, except for "public performance" recordings, and there are no new CDs. The owners' preferences in used CD inventory tend towards classic and indie rock (especially British music), jazz and R & B. Last time I checked, they carried some obsolete media: VHS tapes and 8-track and cassette tapes. They also carry a selection of T-shirts.

Tony S.

Yelp
Just went into this store for the second time ever with my girl to get posters for our new place! Service was top notch and the selection was so great that I spent much, much more than intended. Great used vinyl selection and a super knowledgable staff (so knowledgable that they knew using a Goldmine was usually quicker to look up an old 45 than the Internet).

"Ask us about the Free Chicken Dinner" or something to that effect said the sign in the window. I have absolutely no idea what the hell that means but if it's retro-tainment you're looking for here's your place. I am one of those guys afflicted with "vinylphilia." In this age of mp3s, mp4s, and ipods(ugh) I'm glad there are places like Fantasyland which cater to nonconformist freaks like me. Although it can be somewhat confusingly cataloged(i.e. the Byrds being listed in the Oldies section), this place has a ginormous selection of vinyl in varying condition. I found the Peter Gabriel album I'd been looking for in seconds however. This place has a good classic to modern rock section and a huge jazz and classical selection. The only genre I felt under represented was country. Only three measly little bins all by their lonesome behind the sale table in the back of the store. Hell, that's a good idea for a country song in and of itself. In addition to vinyl the store has a huge collection of cds, dvds, rocktastic posters and magazines. I can't go without mentioning the huge variety of pre-owned adult videos(big boobs, bigger hair) and magazines(gross!). The staff is cool but I think you have to throw something at them for assistance, not that I needed any. I enjoyed thumbing through the albums and contemplating life as a 70's rockstar ala "The Nuge."

Matt T.

Yelp
Im just like everyone else who comes here. I can easily spend hours in this shop looking around in all the different crates for the hidden gems that I never planned on finding. Vinyls of course run the shop, but they get some awesome cds in as well, and will convert all your vinyl to CD if you want. I wouldnt but someone clearly will. On top of that you have Filenes's right next store. Talk about a great day. #Yelp365 23/365

I want to give a special thanks to Mark at Fantacyland. My water pipes busted on the 7 of January, 2014 and most of my old record albums I have lugged around from my teenage years (35 years) were ruined. I asked if he could value them for me, for insurance purposes. He wrote me a perfect short letter that will be a huge help in me receiving compensation from the insurance company. Thank Mark!

This is what I had in mind when searching for a local record store. I'm still kind of new to Atlanta and always had a hometown record store to go into once a month and buy some new LPs. They had a decent selection, old and new. They had everything from 1950s to now. Everything seemed to be in order, you dont really need to ask where anything is, just go hunt. I guess they just started selling new vinyl, but most of the stock is all used. I was looking for older stuff, but I still ended up getting a few new ones. My only complaint is that some quasi-rare LPs are a little pricey. Some I already owned and I know I didn't pay that when I got it. More often than not, eBay is changing the normal selling price of an LP. But, that isn't the store's fault, just the current state of affairs. The fun of hunting down records is finding that deal anyways. It's pretty convenient getting there and they have a parking garage next door. I think I will definitely frequent this place. I like to support the local record business as much as I can. I get a good feeling from this one. They aren't trying to rip off the person that doesn't know better.

Kenny H.

These guys have it all. I've even sent them messages asking for specific records and they have tracked them down for me. I feel like I need to buy all the things every time I walk in here. There is a parking garage so parking is never an issue. You will notice a stage and spot lights in the store reminiscent of Amoeba Hollywood which makes me wonder who they have had on stage here. This place is a gem to those who know about it. Good atmosphere for all who enter and super helpful staff. Will be back

Fantasyland is amazing! They have so much stuff it will make your head spin. New and used CDs, Vinyl, DVDs, old comic books, all the posters on the wall are for sale, and I even found some KISS Army action figures in original packaging! Don't judge me. Spend the day there and you can find so many cool hidden treasures. It sort of reminds me of the record store I used to go to in college, except without the stereotypically condescending music snobs. That's right, the guys that work here are actually really nice and extremely helpful. Who would have thought that would be possible at a cool neighborhood record store? Prices are cheap and there's a parking garage right next door. Everyone should lose themselves searching through boxes of Purple Rain and The Cramps and Miles Davis and The Replacements at least once a month or so; it's good for the soul. If you like music and movies (and I'm guessing you do) then you have to go there. Your soul depends on it.

I went to this location for the first time yesterday and was mostly impressed. The selection was pretty good even though the prices seemed $1-$3 dollars high on most things (maybe due to rent in Buckhead? or that he's a power seller on Ebay) so no "super deals" to be found, but not wildly over priced either. The store does need a little TLC as some of the table looked like they were about to collapse under the weight of the records and the organization of the records in the categories needs a little work. But yeah, I get it, it's a record store and that's what I should expect I guess.. Service was great and we will be going back.

One of the finest record stores in Atlanta. I have been frequenting this establishment longer than I care to admit :-) Always an awesome selection of used vinyl / CDs, but they also now carry new vinyl as well. If you're still hunting for that 'diamond in the rough' to fill that void in your collection, be sure to check here!

*If you're looking for Hip-hop/Rap or Dance vinyl, look elsewhere* Besides that, this place is pretty wonderful. Very clean and organized, and the staff leaves you alone in peace to browse. Huge selection of rock vinyl from the 70s and on, lots of Jazz and new releases as well. Came here to look for Hip-hop and Dance material so I was initially disappointed by the small selection of those. Ended up leaving with a good haul of some classical and trip-hop. Overall it was a good experience. Be sure to do a little digging through the $5 bins in the back!

I just left this store and I had to write a review. After being watched as I moved from room to room taking pictures with a friend one of the workers came over and told me not to pull out any of the records. I then asked how am I supposed to know what record is there if I can't pull them out. He replied they aren't a photoshoot shop and if I want to buy one then he could get it for me. Mind you there were other people in there touching and pulling records. Very racist ; very prejudice and very disappointing that they wouldn't want free promotion of their vinyl shop. Btw I collect lvinyls so I had every intention on buying one !

A long-time problem I've had with Fantasyland for a least the last couple of decades is timing... they're hardly ever open when I happen to be in Atlanta, so I'm a dozen or so visits behind Wuxtry, Wax-N-Fax, and so on. But, I've found some things here that I never have anywhere else, such as (don't tell a soul) "Renaldo & Clara" on VHS, back around 1990, 12 years after waiting to see see it. Being VHS, one of the tapes has long-since self-destructed, so I hope to someday catch Fantasyland open again for perhaps a DVD copy of this... and just to be able to browse around the shop again.

There's quite a selection to look through, though a lot of it is repeat from room to room. The further back you go, the less expensive the same title will be. Staff has a quirky passive aggressive attitude that will either delight you or send you running.

This is the biggest and baddest record store in Atlanta, IMHO - well biggest is not an opinion, but a fact. It has the largest selection and very fair pricing. Trust me, I have been to them all! I think it has the best selection of used Classic Rock, Folk and R&B. It is slowly adopting a larger selection of new vinyl. The space is very large, only room for growth.

I love this record shop! They have an amazing selection of both new and used records! The prices are very reasonable. You can get pretty nice used records for as low as $5 or find ones on sale for $2. Most records range from $7-15 however it really depends. They have 3 rooms of albums and CD's! It's very impressive. It's all organized alphabetically which makes looking for specific albums very easy!

Finally got into Fantasyland Records over the Labor Day weekend and immediately regretted . . . not having visited sooner. I'm a CD holdout, and their selection is very deep and impressive, with most of the used stock priced at $5 per disc. I found a couple titles that have been on my longtime search list. Relaxed, browser-friendly vibe and free parking in the garage next door. Worth the trip and highly recommended.

This is a great shop. I've never purchased used records, but I've gotten CDs, new LPs, posters, used 45s, ect. I've always been super happy, no skipping CDs (which can happen a lot at these local record stores that sell CDs), no wrapped LP s (That's I've seen), a large selection of 45s (which you don't see lot), and they have good prices. I'd tell any of my audiophile friends to check out. Great classic record store vibe, nice guys working there, I've spent hours in here just looking at stuff.

I love this place. It's massive and the selection is remarkable. From old vinyl to new. You can come in and grab specifically what you're looking for or you can spend all day in this place just getting lost in the bins. I haven't had any problems with any of the vinyl I've purchased from here and all the prices are completely reasonable for what you get. The gentlemen that run the store are so helpful and kind as well. I called in one day just to check and make sure a specific pretty rare record was there (it was!) and they remembered me when I came in. Also, check out their facebook page they are constantly updating with new inventory on a weekly bases. Can't say enough good things. OH if you like posters. . . GO HERE. Everything you see on the walls is for sale.
