Well stocked, knowledgeable staff, one stop shop for most things vinyl. And I was given a very nice set of RCA cables with my purchase. Always appreciated

Approximate cost: $700

I mostly buy my music online, so for me Urban Records is all about the eclectic gift and homewares section at the back. The late opening hours are also a huge plus - I love being able to pop in late at night in after coffee or dinner with friends, and browse the fab retro inspired homewares and gift items, as well as the quirky clothes and jewellery. I've made a few great impulse buys here (they stock my fav Fred kitchenware), and have found some brilliant and unusual gifts for friends and family.
