Groamy C D's & Tapes — Local services in Lima

Soon as I walked in the owner came up to me and asked what I was looking for I said "well you got a metal section?" He said that he didn't because everyone would be on him about how some bands either were or wernt metal like how the big chain stores would put montley crue in there with heavier stuff and I liked that. All the cds are in alpebetical order so it's great for those looking for specific artists. The owner is a pretty cool and chill dude and he give fair prices on all his cds and I found some rare cds I haven't seen anywhere else. He told me he gets new stuff all the time and his store shows it it's packed and I mean packed full of cds, tapes DVDs, videogames from classics like the NES and Sega to new consoles like Xbox and PlayStation. Overall it was a great experience and I would come here first before anywhere else 12/10 if you're anywhere around Lima please...

Super cluttered, nearly no organization. Tough place to even move around in. Store is definitely focused on pushing new reissues as opposed to used vintage vinyl. Any used records are scattered among the store in random crates, boxes, some being so covered you don’t even want to bother. 100s of records just in piles not priced cleaned or anything. Prices are pretty high. Dug for about an hour to find one decent used LP in a stack of otherwise Goodwill/thrift store type records only to have the guy at the register pull up discogs and search for multiple minutes before giving me a price. Never seen a record store run like this one. Smells weird...

Went in looking for a way to honor my wife’s grandfathers love of Janis Joplin that we both shared. I was looking for something to leave on his grave. Groamy worked his hardest to find a record but couldn’t find one that wasn’t “too nice to leave on a grave and not hurt his soul”. He took my number down and said he’d call if he got something in. We settled on a Johnny Cash record cover which he gave me for free. As I was pulling out Groamy ran out and knocked on my window because he found a Janis CD. He also gave this to me since it was honoring our Poppy....
