20 S Tulane St
Princeton, NJ 08542
After graduating from college in 1975, Barry, the owner, traveled to flea markets and college towns buying, selling, and trading records. He slept in his van and set up shop on street corners, college book stores ( Princeton's was one ), or wherever he could find a space. Eventually tiring of life on the road, in 1980 he established our first store in Princeton, NJ. The throng of customers and massive amount of merchandise soon overwhelmed the small space, so, in 1985, we moved to our present location on S. Tulane St. with five times the retail area. Even so, we are usually packed to the rafters with music and movies. From humble beginnings Princeton Record Exchange has grown to be one of the largest independent music stores in the country. Princeton Record Exchange has been buying music and movie collections for over twenty-five years. We have established a solid reputation as one of the leaders in the industry for buying,, and other audio and video formats. We are also an active member in the Better Business Bureau and adhere to their standards of business practices. You can rest assured that you will be treated professionally. We purchase thousands of collections every year-private collections, estate collections, reviewer/radio station surplus, and entire store inventories-no collection is too large! We make selling Used Compact Discs, Used LPs and DVDs easy. To find out what we can pay for your Music and DVDs you may:

This place is located on Tulane St, North of the campus. I'm really not sure how you can give this place lower than 5 stars. Maybe because the records are not in alphabetical order? The people...
