Record stores in St. Louis

Record shops reward the patient digger. St. Louis, MO has 10 mapped right now. That's 10 record shops mapped around St. Louis. Every shop grades and prices differently, so the same record can be a bargain in one and a splurge in another — dig everywhere. Check the grading before you pay — a visual grade and a play grade are two different things.

This guide covers every record store we could verify in and around St. Louis (within about 40 km), built from OpenStreetMap's community-maintained data. Names you'll run into include Vintage Vinyl and Hip Hop Shop, plus CD Warehouse. If a record shop's missing from St. Louis's list, it probably just hasn't been mapped yet.

Record digging tips for St. Louis

Digging in St. Louis? A few habits pay off:

Good to know

We searched about 40 km around St. Louis — 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 St. Louis can take a while to appear. If you spot one of the 10 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 10 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.
