23rd Precinct
23 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1HU
Not one for the casual music browser, this; 23rd Precinct is a proper specialist store for proper specialist dance music junkies, as the intimidatingly serious background music, staff (most of them big-name local DJs themselves) and customers make…
Alba Second-Hand Music
55 Otago Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8PQ
Sturdy, long-running store handily situated for the College of Piping, dealing in printed music for most instruments, ensembles and orchestras.
Armchair Books
72–74 West Port,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2LE
Divided over two premises, Armchair Books has been a favourite stop for bibliophiles for more than 15 years. The shop owners say their regulars 'appreciate the way the shop combines an eclectic stock with a sterling regard for the health and safety of…
Armstrong's
83 Grassmarket,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2HJ
Whether you're a fashion student or just a dedicated follower, a visit to the granddaddy of Edinburgh's vintage stores is essential for anyone with even the slightest interest in clothes. The Grassmarket branch has by far the bigger, more eclectic…
Armstrong's
64–66 Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9JB
Whether you're a fashion student or just a dedicated follower, a visit to the granddaddy of Edinburgh's vintage stores is essential for anyone with even the slightest interest in clothes. The Grassmarket branch has by far the bigger, more eclectic…
Avalanche
63 Cockburn Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1BS
Scotland
Tiny, near-legendary record shop specialising in new and used indie and alternative vinyl and CDs. An essential part of the Edinburgh muso experience, with a great selection of local acts - Postcard Records, in particular, are brilliantly represented.
Barnardos Boutique
54 Wilson Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1HD
The chance to save a bit of cash isn't the only reason to visit this store. There's a fine selection of designer and vintage clothing looking for a new home, with all money raised going towards children in Scotland. Donations are most welcome too if you…
Barnardos Vintage
116 West Bow,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2HH
Treasure trove charity shop, with the stock hand-picked from Barnardo's general intake by a dedicated team who know the area. It's a skip across the road from Armstrongs, making this area of the Grassmarket something of a vintage bolthole, and although…
Circa Vintage
37 Ruthven Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 9BG
Packed-out vintage store with a broad selection. Really good for Art Deco jewellery, and at the other end of the spectrum, fabulously tacky 1980s elasticated belts. Prices range from £5-£75
Edinburgh Books
145–147 West Port,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9DP
Bewilderingly labyrinthine selection of antiquarian books over two levels. Formerly West Port Books, and now a leading member of the West Port Books collective, Edinburgh Books' staff have a similarly dry sense of humour to their fellow collective…
Glorious
41 Ruthven Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 9BG
One of The List's favourite clothing shops, Glorious (still known to many as The Glory Hole, although they don't like to talk about that these days...) hovers somewhere between 'vintage' and 'second hand', recycling specially-selected high street and…
Herman Brown
151 West Port,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9DP
Seriously gorgeous selection of top-end vintage accessories and shoes hang alongside a carefully selected, colour-coded range of 1950s-1980s fashions. The very best place to lay hands on retro sunglasses, diamante hat pins and patent stilettos.
Hog's Head Music
62 South Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9PS
Muso paradise indeed. This grungy second-hand store is full of rare CDs and DVDs, collectable box sets and T-shirts. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the windows are crammed with rarities, and there's a great trade-in policy.
Main Point Books
8 Lauriston Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 9DJ
Situated between a lap-dancing club and a church, Main Point Books specialise in mind-expanding tracts. Fans of Vonnegut, Brautigan, Dick and Orwell will find plenty of politically-charged sci-fi to keep them happy here, and there's a great section of…
Missing Records
247 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G2 8DL
Loved and revered in Glasgow, the Missing enterprise used to be a bit more of a chain, but everything's now concentrated on this one hub near the Arches (with a wee sister out in Paisley). Still got a brilliant selection of secondhand music and films…
Play It Again* Records
47 Ruthven Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 9BG
Play it Again* Records are pretty keen on avoiding the corporate trappings of logos, mottos and mantras (but insist on keeping the asterisk). They sell and buy old records, CDs & DVDs that are in decent condition and fairly priced. Nothing will ever…
The Record Shak
69 Clerk Street,
Edinburgh,
EH8 9JG
Simple, basic and excellent wee record shop with absolutely no attitude, selling a great selection of blues, rock, folk, reggae and jazz, mostly second hand. Will occasionally buy records too.
Relics
Ruthven Mews, Dowanside Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 9BZ
It's amazing how much you can pack into one small shop. The shelves and counters of this treasure trove tucked away off Byres Road are stuffed full of bric-a-brac: on a good day you can find anything from Art Nouveau glassware to original 1970s Star…
Rusty Zip
14 Teviot Place,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2QZ
The littlest vessel in the Armstrong's armada stocks better quality leather coats than its name might suggest. Smoother-than-thou retro pieces mingle with knick-knacks, including wigs, feather boas and novelty scarves. During August, it's handily…
Vinyl Villains
5 Elm Row,
Edinburgh,
EH7 4AA
Continuing the city's proud tradition of record shops with alliterative names, this dark, brilliant and slightly haphazard collection of second hand vinyl and CDs was recently namechecked in Sunshine on Leith, the Proclaimers musical. Staff are famously…
Voltaire & Rousseau
12–14 Otago Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8PB
A silent, dusty, temple to the pleasures of reading, Voltaire and Rousseau represents second hand book-shopping in its most perfect form . Piles upon piles upon piles of books, arranged in only the vaguest semblance of order, spill out from the shelves…
