We like music too. Do you wanna get some coffee?

About Me

This is going to be a work in progress so bare with us as we add to this "about me" section. First of all and we can't stress this enough, we are nothing without you. If people like you weren't around to support us then we would not be here. Thank you so much for realizing that this town needs independent business and ideas, because it's not just about providing music, it's also about not having to go to some mega corporate store and giving some fat cat even more money. We have to all do things for ourselves and be independent in our own ways to enjoy true freedom. Every dollar you spend is like a vote saying that it's okay for a certain business to be operating, it may even be a more important vote then say for that of President, so vote wisely. We also understand that people have to work, and sometimes they have to work for these big companies and we would never knock you for that, the worker is not at fault when there are no other options and I don't know anyone that hasn't had to get such a job at one point or another. You can use this Myspace to send us comments about what you would like us to carry, or just to shoot the breeze. You may also special order CD's, LP's, or DVD's via this here page, just send us a message and we will respond quickly. It only takes a couple of days to get most items in and we don't charge you anything extra. LP's take awhile to get in, but as all vinyl buyers know it's worth the wait. Keep in mind that for the time being at least you will have to stop in the store to pick up anything that you have ordered since we don't have an actual online store set up YET. ZINES!!!! Someone, anyone, everyone should bring in their zines, the true voice of the people.
I edited my profile with Thomas’ Myspace Editor V3.6 !

I'd like to meet:

People who like music, a.k.a. you. That's right I'm pointing at you. You thought you would get some information lacking who "I'd like to meet" kinda thing, but you thought wrong, and I do believe you are going to get: 1. A new clarity for who "I'd like to meet" as well as and certainly not least, 2. more than you bargined for. It doesn't matter who you are or what you listen to; we prefer all people of all kinds and all shapes and sizes. We want you to be yourself and feel at home. We all have to live in this town and we all pretty much know each other so let us agree that we all like and need music to survive just like food and water. Let Co-op records help you achieve such goals in a friendly, non-corporate kind of way. We love you guys, and we appreciate everyone that walks through our doors whether they buy something or not. SO THERE!!!!

Music:

We buy used CDs as well as used DVDs. If you have a bunch of stuff taking up room around the house/apartment then bring them into us and we'll give you a fair price for them. You can also trade your old stuff for new stuff with the dollar amount we give you.
