Greville Records

Killer selection and staff are always so helpful. Been going here for years definitely my favourite record store. I know that the quality of the second hand records will always be great. Love a chat about all sorts of music as well, alway asking what they are listening to. Definitely check them out.

Great staff, had a great time looking around the store. Found a Sinead O Connor record I’ve been looking for, for a while. Always great stuff

Edit: NEVER SHOP HERE - Probably the worst customer experience I’ve ever had, went back to return the my unplayable album and the owner and staff where quite hostile, they accused me saying “you wreaked it and you know you wreaked it” I offered to show them a video of me playing it showing it’s damage, they said again today “it looks fine” but declined to play it or watch my video of me playing it for them, I feel my review below was both fair and non aggressive. everyone has a right an opinion and my opinion was that I was sold two faulty records. I feel very disheartened because I thought a record store would have people truely passionate about preserving this media and making it enjoyable for new people and maybe that’s how they feel, but if having a bad shopping experience where my product was faulty then becomes “never come here again and we’ve told other places about you aswell”. Very disappointing and a strange encounter tbh I wish them the best but it seems they wish me the worst. I’ll happily shop elsewhere as there are a lot of small record businesses that I’m sure are more deserving of a returning customer Original: Purchased a record fresh unopened was scratched as hell not their fault, BUT went back today to get something else person in the store opened it and had a sus they said it looked good, I felt someone who works at a record store would have an eye for this but apparently not , was a 2 record album and every side had scratches on it. Only annoyed because they checked it out and I believed em, gotta go all the way back to exchange it for a second time and look for myself, I’d include pics put you can see on a camera but with ur eye u can totally see they all poor condition, very very annoying but what can I do, maybe some of the employees need a refresher on how to check a record. Not tryna be mean but yeah going all the way back for the 3rd time just ain’t fun, hopefully next time I’ll get a good one but I won’t be buying anything from them again.

I once tried to get a job at Greville Records, I did not have much luck, I was much younger back then. I dealt with pompous cold trendies, that these days would be called hipsters. Thought they were too cool for school. Selfish, self-absorbed not really concerned about other people and classist. Many of their albums I recognise but being hipsters they would not know anything about the music they profess to like. I guess the real estate market in most of Melbourne is overpriced, so the vinyl has to be too. And I can write this because being hipsters they don't care anyway and I must somehow just be jealous? Being some lower middle class loser.

Steve the owner is extremely knowledgeable and has an enourmous collection of music on vinyl and other formats. Chances are if you're looking for it then Greville Records have it or they can get their hands on it if it is in production. A great warm atmosphere in the store with plenty of opportunity to browse and select to your hearts content.

Friendly staff, great selection, in a really cool location. Love the Japanese imports! Definitely worth your time!

Great store - great service, great selection and knowledgeable staff. Warwick is a legend & he’ll agree with you about that! Seriously though Warwick knows his stuff as does Arlo.

Favourite record shop in town, great stock and great staff! So knowledgeable and engaging always.
