Record store: Berkshirecat Records

FAQ

What genres and eras of records are you currently interested in buying?

Thanks for reaching out! We are actively seeking records from the '80s, '90s, and 2000s, specifically in the rock, indie, and metal genres. We are also interested in jazz records from the BeBop and Free Jazz eras, particularly those from Blue Note and Prestige labels, as well as punk and reggae records. For 45s, we look for garage rock, reggae, and punk.

Are there any types of records you are not interested in at the moment?

We are NOT interested in older records, easy listening, or country genres at this time. Our focus is on more specific genres as mentioned earlier.

How do you evaluate records?

Evaluation typically takes place onsite (where the records are located) or at our shop. During the evaluation, I focus on the pressing and condition of each record to determine their value.

What payment methods do you offer for purchased records?

Cash is the normal payment method once we agree on a price. However, we also offer payment via Venmo and even crypto as possible alternatives.

Is store credit available as a payment option?

Store credit is certainly possible; however, right now it is valued 1:1 with cash, so you might as well take a cash payment unless you prefer store credit for another reason.
