Hello’s current shop is in Lincoln Park, a detail worth settling before leaving Detroit with an old Corktown address. The business buys and sells across an unusually broad range of recorded formats: LPs and singles, but also 78s, tapes, CDs and video. That makes it relevant to collectors whose shelves do not stop at twelve-inch vinyl. Its online selection is only part of the physical stock. A specific Discogs search can help with a wanted title, while the shop visit leaves more room for the records and music ephemera that never made that search.
What you will find
Used LPs, 45s and 78s, CDs, cassettes, DVDs and VHS, plus books, magazines, posters, photographs and audio equipment. Not every category will have the same depth on any given day.
Genre strengths: Soul, Jazz, Rock, Experimental
Buying and selling
Hello lists buying and selling records, CDs, tapes and other media. Email or call about a collection, particularly bulky equipment or material outside the usual LP-and-CD boxes.
4165 Fort Street in Lincoln Park, southwest of central Detroit. This replaces the former Corktown location. Treat it as a downriver trip, with Dearborn as a possible separate stop rather than a walkable neighbour.
Local tips
If you collect 78s, say so when enquiring. Their format and handling requirements differ from LPs, and finding a shop that explicitly includes them saves a speculative drive.
