Wonderland Records

Wonderland in Newark is listed as Delaware's oldest record store, with vinyl records, CDs, turntables, and USB record players at its Main Street location. The shop also carries T-shirts, incense, and glass items alongside music formats.

The current page notes an on-site recording studio offering digital and analog recording, mixing, and mastering. That gives the store a wider role than a basic retail listing: it combines records, related merchandise, playback gear, and studio services under one roof. _

FAQ

What types of vinyl records are you currently looking for?

We are really looking for 80s and 90s full-length LPs, as well as jazz and rock from the late 50s to current.

What types of records are you not interested in purchasing?

We already have enough of the following: classical, big band, easy listening. Specifically, artists like Rod Stewart, Linda Ronstadt, Neil Diamond, Barry Manilow, Kenny Loggins, and Dan Fogelberg.

How do you evaluate the records that are brought in?

We evaluate the records by seeing what's in the collection and then inspect closely a kind of random sample as it would take a lot of time to check each one.

What can I expect in terms of compensation for my records?

We then make a cash offer. If you desire store credit, that can be negotiated.

Is there anything specific I should know before bringing my records to your store?

It's probably easier to mention what we don't want. We are not looking for classical, big band, easy listening, or specific artists like Rod Stewart, Linda Ronstadt, Neil Diamond, Barry Manilow, Kenny Loggins, and Dan Fogelberg. We are mainly interested in 80s and 90s LPs, and jazz and rock from the late 50s onward.

Thanks, Demitri
