Real Groovy has lots of hard-to-find disc collections. They have a storage area where you may leave your bag. My partner and I were stopped by a staff at entrance and were told to leave our bags at the storage area, which is understandable. However, they did not tell other non-Asian customers to leave their bags. Therefore, I feel disheartening with the double standard that I experienced. It is a fine policy, but when it only impose to a certain group of people and not others, this is when segregation is felt. The storage area only has our bags, it is very empty. I hope the policy is applicable to all individuals with bag pack the next time I visit the store.
They got some real cool toys , games and books ! Good place to get quirky gifts !
The staff here are super friendly and helpful and there is a whole range of interesting stuff to shop... toys, clothing, books, and if course the music Great for gifts. Sign up to the club and get rewarded for spending. They also source things from overseas providers that you can order online.
This is a nice place with a lot of interesting/unique products. As a massive Beatles fan, I picked up a couple LPs to add to my collection. My only issue was that the Magical Mystery Tour record sleeve was a little ragged on one edge, but honestly it's not a big deal and I should have been more careful and checked before purchasing. Anyway, they have a great selection of vinyl, books, gifts, and other assorted items and I would definitely go again!
Been here a few times now and this place is mad cool, large range of vinyls, CDs, board games, novelty gifts, merch, record testing players and friendly staff. Super great place! You guys should stock more Joji stuff though
I just received my order. Really fast, well packed. The vinyl I purchased were in great condition. So happy. I will definitely order again as I rebuild my record collection frustrating as I used to own most of these back in the day .
Great to see this awesome record shop survived a turbulent time through the last 15 years. I have been buying vinyl here since I moved to Auckland quite a few years ago. Great customer service, friendly shop, reasonable prices.
Has a great time browsing through the shelves here, there's a huge selection of music and merch to check out. My favourite was the huge K-Pop wall! And looks like the online site ships all over NZ too, so I'll be shopping here more in future!
Awesome new big store with so many records to choose from. Great selection! We went to look at a project record player and there weren't many on display but only because they had just moved stores two weeks ago. Look forward to returning soon and seeing the new display.
Had to visit after originally dropping in back in 2006! Still a cool vibe and eclectic merch
