Limited to One

Limited to One is built around records whose edition matters: limited pressings, less common contemporary releases and the particular versions collectors keep searching for. Kristian Sorge and Nichole Porges run the East Village shop, drawing on interests that include 1990s indie, hip-hop and hardcore. Artist and label relationships add releases that do not read like a standard distributor's new-arrivals list. The basement setting and focused stock make it a deliberate destination for someone following those scenes, rather than a broad replacement for Academy or a large used-CD shop. Check the current posts for the direction of recent arrivals, then ask about the pressing itself. A record appearing in a photograph is a lead, not a guarantee it remains available.

Collectible and limited-edition vinyl, including LPs and singles, plus tapes. Contemporary indie, hip-hop, punk and hardcore are useful starting points.

Limited to One buys vinyl. Use the shop's contact information to describe a collection or particular records and confirm arrangements before carrying a large quantity down to the store.

221 East 10th Street, basement west, in the East Village. Pay attention to the basement entrance detail rather than looking only for a ground-floor shop.

Pair this targeted pressing hunt with the broader used bins at Academy on East 12th. Save screenshots of the edition you want so the conversation is about the correct release, not just the album title.
