Record digging tips for Santander

How the regulars work Santander's bins:

• Check Discogs before big purchases at Supersonic discos. A quick price check on your phone keeps everyone honest — you and the shop.
• Genre-hop at Tiendas Tipo. The best finds are in the sections you don't know. Jazz collectors find gold in the classical bins and vice versa.
• Check the vinyl, not just the sleeve. Slide it out (carefully, by the edges) and look at it in good light. Sleeves lie; vinyl doesn't.
• Visit on restock days. Shops process collections on rhythms. Ask when new used stock hits the floor and time your visits.

Good to know

Listings come from OpenStreetMap, mapped by local volunteers, so a brand-new record store in Santander can take a while to appear. Spotted a closure among the 4, or a record store we missed entirely? The map is the source of truth here — one OpenStreetMap edit corrects it for everyone.

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 4 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.
