Frequently Asked Questions
-
Monroe Trading Co, we don’t sell records — we curate sonic relics: hand-picked originals, painstakingly cleaned and reconditioned, each honestly assessed to the Goldmine Grading so what you see is exactly what spins. Our collection favors first pressings, soundtracks, and rare finds with provenance you can trust, wrapped in a playful, theatrical vibe that’s consumer, music lover & collector-smart. Every listing reads like a love letter to the grooves, with detailed condition reports, listening notes, and high-resolution photos so you know the story and the sound before it arrives. We pair obsessive care for vinyl with a small-batch approach to merch and memorabilia, creating a treasure-hunt experience for discerning collectors who want authenticity, character, and a record that’s been treated like the artifact it is.

We’re spinning toward a brick & mortar storefront for late summer/early fall 2027. Expect a cozy space where we expand on the musical/alternative lifestyle brand. The plans for our future storefront will include everything on the current website as well as cds, more band merch, new & used music equipment & instruments, unique & antique home decore, festival/stage clothing, live mini-sets, and an expert staff that will make digging in person a ritual.
Sign up for our mailing list on the site to be first in line for the grand opening, insider previews, and exclusive in-store drops.

We dig for treasure where music lives. Our stock comes from estate sales, auctions, and the private vaults of collectors who know the value of a first pressing. On occasions we do source directly from pressing plants, wholesale distributors and band merch archives for swag, promos, and pressings you won’t find elsewhere.
-
Though we do have a few factory sealed titles, all of our current stock has come from second hand resources. We are currently in contact with wholesale distributors & hope to include brand new, factory seal/NIB items in the very near future.
