The Good Stuff
Careful packaging
Records are packed particularly well, helping them arrive in excellent condition.
Wide selection
The range spans new and used records, rare older vinyl and multiple genres and artists.
Helpful sourcing
The team can help locate and order records that are not currently in stock.
Fair pricing
Customers report reasonable prices, discounts and offers rather than inflated vinyl pricing.
Easy exchanges
One customer was able to exchange a record without difficulty.
Tips for a Better Visit
Ask to source. If a record is missing online or in the outlet, ask whether the team can locate and order it.
Plan your route. Allow extra travel time for the showroom; one visitor found the outlet particularly difficult to reach.
Check condition. For used vinyl, inspect condition carefully, as one visitor found that part of the selection could be stronger.
Use WhatsApp. For online questions, WhatsApp was reported as a smooth way to contact customer support.
Check ETAs. Review preorder delivery estimates, but note that one listed 7–10-day ETA arrived the next day.

The Bottom Line
ae is a record-focused shop in Showroom9, with both a physical outlet and an online platform. You can browse new and used vinyl, look for rare older albums, and find related items such as cassettes, CDs, record players and music merchandise. The selection covers a broad mix of genres, with limited editions and K-pop releases also mentioned by customers.
The online service is a major reason people return. Several reviewers received orders the next day or within two days, and the record packaging receives unusually specific praise. Customers also say the team can track down and order items that are not in stock, while one buyer managed a straightforward record exchange.
Prices were described as reasonable, with discounts and offers appearing in recent feedback. There are a few practical cautions. The outlet can be difficult to reach and may feel more like a showroom or pickup point than a traditional record shop.
The used selection has drawn some criticism, and the turntable available for testing was considered too basic. Support has generally been praised, although a few delayed-order reviews mention unanswered calls or emails, so check delivery estimates and keep your order details handy.
