REVIEW
Wax Nostalgic is a gem tucked away in the Upper East Side. The moment you walk in, you're greeted by the luxurious, gallery-like atmosphere with impeccable design. The lighting and acoustics are carefully crafted for the optimal vinyl browsing experience.
The pricing is high, but the selection is impressive. They regularly bring in new stock, including rare indie rock and electronic music. The staff is knowledgeable and happy to make recommendations based on your taste. What really sets this place apart is their listening station where you can sample records before purchasing. They also host listening parties on the first Friday of every month, featuring different genres and artists. Diamond rating well deserved for their specialized collection and community focus.
