Vortex is a small place that sells used DVDs, CDs and vinyl for low prices. They buy and sell here. The place is tiny and it can get a little crowded in there. Expect to slide across people's backs and stand shoulder to shoulder with a stranger.
Vortex has a lot of jazz, folk and country music; they also have a good amount of pop/rock variety organized from A-Z. They have rows of DVDs that are stalked against the walls. A lot of the DVDs are mainstream and they do have a nice variety of Blu-ray. They also have a great selection of vinyl which seems to be the hype here.
The staff is friendly but don't expect too much help while you're browsing the store. The only staff there are those behind the cash helping people with their purchases, that's it.
Vortex is a great place to get your hands on some cool DVDs, inexpensive vinyl, and those hard to find CDs.
