At Routine Vinyls, we've transformed our shared passion for vinyl collecting into a thriving online marketplace that serves thousands of enthusiasts nationwide. What began as weekend crate-digging adventures at local record stores and estate sales soon developed into a part-time venture alongside our full-time careers. With our operations split between Colorado and Wisconsin, our geographical diversity allows us to source rare and regional pressings that might otherwise go undiscovered. Our combined decade of e-commerce expertise has enabled us to create a seamless shopping experience that connects collectors with both mainstream releases and obscure treasures. We personally curate each addition to our inventory, ensuring that every record meets our exacting standards before reaching our customers.
Our difference at Routine Vinyls lies in our meticulous attention to product care and customer satisfaction. Every record in our extensive collection is stored in temperature-controlled facilities specifically designed to prevent warping, fading, and other common issues that plague vinyl media. Our custom-built vertical shelving systems keep albums stored upright, eliminating the risk of ring wear and sleeve damage that can occur with improper storage methods. This commitment to preservation means that whether you're purchasing a vintage jazz pressing or a limited edition contemporary release, your record arrives in the best possible condition. Our dedication to quality control and understanding of collectors' concerns has established us as trusted experts in the vinyl community, where our reputation for authenticity and careful shipping practices continues to win loyal customers.
