Record digging tips for Quezon City

How the regulars work Quezon City's bins:

• Visit on restock days at Piano Repair/Tuning. Shops process collections on rhythms. Ask when new used stock hits the floor and time your visits.
• Don't overlook cassettes and CDs at Gold Digger Records. The tape and CD sections are chronically underpriced. The format revival hasn't hit them the same way.
• Ask to play it. Good shops have turntables for exactly this. If they won't let you listen, that's information too.
• Check Discogs before big purchases. A quick price check on your phone keeps everyone honest — you and the shop.

Good to know

We searched about 18 km around Quezon City — that covers the town itself plus the surrounding communities you'd reasonably drive to. Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new record store in Quezon City can take a while to appear. If you spot one of the 3 that's closed, or a great record store we missed, the fix is to update the map itself — that's where this guide reads from.

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.
