Record digging tips for Porto Alegre
How the regulars work Porto Alegre's bins:
- Check the dead wax at Stoned Discos Mausoléu. The runout groove holds matrix numbers that identify pressings. Collectors live by these; a quick phone search settles it.
- Hit the new-arrivals bin first at Boca do Disco. That's where fresh stock lands before anyone else sees it. The good stuff rarely survives the week.
- Check the bargain wall rhythm. Shops restock the cheap sections on cycles. Ask when — that's when the fresh bargains land.
- Check the turntable section. Many record shops sell used decks and cartridges. A serviced vintage turntable beats a cheap new one.
Good to know

We don't list prices or stock — both change by the day. What we list is the where: real shops, verified by real mappers.
If you run one of the 3 listed here and something's wrong — a closure, a move, new hours — the fix is the same: update the shop on OpenStreetMap and the correction flows through to this page on the next daily refresh.
