A great gem of a site hidden a little back in your Google searches. When you're after that hard-to-find item this is the place you will find it. Musicstack is driven by a great community of sellers who have a great deal of knowledge and a site owner who is very attentive. A must stop in your music collection searching.
Some of the reviews here relate to sellers on the platform, as a seller I find the owners very helpful and responsive, as a buyer I have personally only ever had positive experiences
So glad to hear you have had only good transactions! Should anything ever go not as planned I'm here to help make sure things turn out positive for you.
MusicStack is an alternate marketplace for both music collectors and sellers, if you want to deal with actual people and not some corporate algorhythm. This marketplace, just like others, links buyers to sellers but - in case of Musicstack - there is an actual guy helping to sort out issues, not an automated bot providing "customer service".
Thanks recommending MusicStack over Ebay/Amazon. That means a lot! I do pride myself on personal service and being helpful if issues arise. That is just something you don't find on the internet these days so that is one way I try to differentiate MusicStack from the competition. Thanks for the great review!
When you are looking for music, this is the place to be. May not be the biggest site but by far the easiest to work with. Everyone is very friendly and the owner of the site is always ready to help with your experience any way he can
So glad you find MusicStack and myself easy to work with. You are right. We might not be the biggest, but we often have those hard to find vinyl records and CD that the other guys don't. So checking out MusicStack is definitely worth it.!
Dave at Musicstack gives great, prompt and personalized service to all sellers on Musicstack. As a buyer, this is a great place to order from as well, being a small community of dedicated vinyl folks!
Hi Roberta - Thanks for noticing how much I pride myself on providing excellent customer. I try hard to provide the best service I can. Long live vinyl!
Been more than 10 years I sell on Musicstack. The experience with the owner and his services is a joy. The message board with the buyer is efficient, Sale got down, but lately, I get more than I was used.
Having fantastic sellers on MusicStack such as you Sylvain is what keeps MusicStack so great. Thanks you for being with us for so long and providing the excellent service that you do!
The idea Musicstack is able to stay afloat is a miracle. There are no checks and balances, and stock is routinely incorrect. Sellers list items for sale that aren't in stock, and they'll take days and days to tell you so. It's relatively easy to read a seller's fill rate and feedback, and sellers find ways to get a buyer's attention, then let them down by over-grading or just not having items in stock. Sellers can get away with this because you just can't leave feedback for sellers here. Buyers who know the basics can open Paypal claims, and win those claims, but sellers can keep acting like dunces because the feedback system is so bad. Keep in mind, I'm both a seller and a buyer, and have been for years, and I'm surprised Musicstack stays in business with competitors like Discogs around. If anyone remembers Gemm, you'll see a lot of similarities with Musicstack (Gemm is now out of business for being an extremely poorly run company). I highly recommend buyers and sellers using Discogs, or even eBay, for your purchases, because Musicstack is a disappointing joke of customer service, seller tools, communication, and vinyl culture.
MusicStack has been in business since 1997 and has process millions of orders and helped a countless number of people find rare records and CDs all with no problems. All sellers have feedback, seller statistics and a star rating that tell how good they are. The great sellers shine brightly while subpar one are easily determined before you buy and can be avoided. Sorry to hear you don't care for our service any longer after being with us for so many years. Your review only leaves me wondering that if we were so terrible and such a joke why you stuck around for so many years?
4 messages sent and not one reply. MusicStack will not help in any way. All i want is my is my product already paid for.
We never received any of your messages so we had no idea you were having problems. If we would have known we gladly would have tried to mediate the situation and find out where your order was. And if that couldn't be done that resulted in you receiving your package we would have helped you get a refund on your order. I'm sorry you had such a negative experience. This is by far not the normal experience when ordering from a seller on our platform. Without knowing the details, this sounds like it could have been a packaged lost or stolen in the mail, or held up in customs as most of the sellers on our platform are extremely honest and have been selling with us for over 10 years (and some over 15 or 20 years).
Cannot determine it in some exact manner, the app is working well enough, I would not say excellent, the process delays are to often, that is why only 3 stars. If they will fix it I will consider it once again
If you wish to see how fast or slow a seller is on our platform please look at the seller's statistics (and Star rating). We track how quickly a seller responds to you after your order is placed and also how quickly they dispatch your order. This information is great for knowing what kind of service you will receive from a seller before you order from them.
As a seller on Musicstack I have found the owner Dave Stack extremely helpful on the rare occasions that I needed advice, great selection of sellers offering a wide variety of music styles. Only problem is that many of the sellers sell on multiple sites and sometimes are slow to update Musicstack that an item has sold so as a buyer be aware it is not Dave's fault.
Thanks for the great review Joe!
Desperate to find a reliable vinyl source, I checked this place and multiple purchases have all been excellent service and items honestly represented with fast shipping. Other than Amazon for an occasional new LP, this is the ONLY site for vinyl that thus far hasn't burned me.
We are so happy to hear that you are finding our service useful and trustworthy. Thanks for the great review!
Whether you buy from a seller through Music Stack or from the seller directly, you'll do well. Music Stack is very customer pro-active -- if you have a question for or problem with a seller and you get no response from the seller within a reasonable time, Music Stack will lock that seller's account until you get a reply! I've found hard-to-find music here; their search engine takes you into all formats (vinyl, 45s, CDs, DVDs, tapes) and all over the world.
So happy to hear that you have been finding lots of hard to find items on MusicStack!
Thank you for leaving us such an excellent review and for noticing our seriously we take customer service from our sellers. That is correct. If a seller doesn't (or refuses) to contact you within 5 days we feel that such a seller should not be listed on our platform. This keeps out all the sellers who can not provide good customer service and keeps only the best seller selling on the platform.
Excellent site, it's the only place i sell my records, would highly recommend it, Dave is great, takes care of any questions I have.
Thanks Dave
Bill
Thanks for the great review Bill! You have been a great seller on our platform as well.
All in all very good. Friendly, honest and reliable sellers. Better prices than on other used media platforms. Very easy to navigate.

Happy to hear you like MusicStack. Thank you for taking the time to leave me such a positive review.
Everything that I bought was as described and shipped quickly! Better than a lot of sites that offer records and cds for sale!
I appreciate you using our marketplace over other sites. Thanks for the kind review.
Always my first choice when looking for new discs for my collection. Never had a problem - questions answered and items shipped in a timely manner. Highly recommended!
So glad to hear you have had excellent transactions on MusicStack. Glad to hear we are your first choice when buying!
I have been with MusicStack for over 18 years as a seller and a customer. You are in good hands with the large community of sellers and the owner provides quality and professional service!
Thanks for being with us for so long R. B. Good people like you are what makes MusicStack so great.
Great site for buying vinyl and CDs'. Friendly bunch of dealers and the sole owner, David Stack is a 'hands on man' that keeps the site friendly and effective. Six stars from me!
Appreciate the fantastic review Derek. Thank you!
Great friendly site for buying and selling music on all formats, I've been selling here for over 20 years with thousands of successful transactions with buyers from all over the world.
You have been with use since nearly the beginning Chris! You provide excellent service and help make MusicStack such a great place to shop for buyers. Thank you!
Bought what I thought would be a vinyl and it came as a CD, no customer service. I would recommend looking for records elsewhere
It appears you ordered a CD, and not vinyl from our site, so that is why a CD showed up. We provide customer service is usually in minutes (not hours) if you contact us through our website or email. Sadly, this is the first I'm hearing from you about an issue with your order.
Answer: Yes, Individuals, collectors and record stores are all welcome to sell on MusicStack.
Answer: You are always welcome to contact me, Dave Stack, the owner of MusicStack if you are having order problems or contact reach a seller. I will make sure that you either your record/cd or you get your money back. We run an honest operation with honest sellers on the platform.
Answer: You are more than welcome to sell on our website, but would probably do better selling on ebay or discogs. Our site tends to work better for larger sellers.
Answer: Please take a look at all our feedback on this site, Trustpilot and other review sites and let that be your guide. You will see that most all of our reviews and feedback are positive. We have been in business since 1997 and have helped millions of music collectors find music they have been looking for.
Answer: Since 1997 our platform has sold to millions of customers. The majority of all those transactions have been positive with no problems. But like Trevor S. Said each seller on our platform is independent and responsible for the how the transaction goes. It is best to look at each sellers feedback ratings and stats to see how they have performed with other buyers and that will give a good indication of how they will perform with you. Thankfully most all sellers on our platform are great sellers who will bend over backwards to make sure you are happy. And in the few rare instance where that doesn't happen you can always file for a dispute with PayPal to get your money back.
Answer: Betsi T. Is correct. If you ever have a problem with seller, I (Dave Stack) will help make sure you get the resolution you are looking for or your money back from the seller. Since 1997 we have help millions of buyers get the music they have been looking for and I can easily say that 99.99% of all transactions have been positive and gone according to plan, and those that didn't the buyer got their money back.
Answer: If you ever have a problem with a payment or communication between yourself and the seller I (Dave Stack, the owner of MusicStack) am happy to help you get in contact with the seller to make sure your transaction goes smooth. MusicStack has been operating for over two decades and our sellers are very honest and want to make sure you have a good transaction with them and receive the music you pay for.
MusicStack has a rating of 4.3 stars from 47 reviews, indicating that most customers are generally satisfied with their purchases. Reviewers satisfied with MusicStack most frequently mention and great place. MusicStack ranks 15th among Music sites.
Thanks for the excellent review Trevor!
