Brooklyn Record Exchange

Brooklyn Record Exchange's current public shop is at 87 Guernsey Street in Greenpoint. That matters because older guides still describe the Bushwick space on Johnson Avenue, which has closed. The business grew from the Co-Op 87 shop and a partnership involving Mike Hunchback, Ben Steidel and Mexican Summer, opening under the Record Exchange name in 2019. Its buying, selling and trading model makes the used inventory a central part of the visit, rather than a small supplement to new releases. On a Greenpoint route, it works naturally with the Academy Annex on Banker and Captured on Manhattan Avenue. Give each its own browse: neighboring shops do not acquire the same collections, even when their broad format descriptions overlap.

New and used vinyl and collectible records. The shop also lists selected stock through its Discogs operation, which is useful for specific pressing research.

Brooklyn Record Exchange buys, sells and trades vinyl. Contact the current Greenpoint shop to discuss a larger collection and confirm assessment arrangements.

Use Guernsey, Banker and Manhattan Avenue as one Greenpoint record route with Academy Annex and Captured. The closed Bushwick branch should not appear as a second stop.
