I had placed an order for a product on the phone to be picked up, my mom went into store to pick it up for me and when she went in, the staff had no clue about what she was saying. My mom showed a picture of the album ( Red Velvet Birthday Cake ver.) She was told this was not a cake shop very rudely by staff, my mom is aware that the Real Groovy is in-fact not a cake shop but an album shop. The staff had no clue what she was after even though the product is displayed on their website so she asked them to look for the product I had called them in advance for, eventually they found what they put under my name and the product that was reserved was not even the product I had asked for. So the person who took my phone call to the people in store had 0 customer service and absolutely no product knowledge.

So, I went to Real Groovy for the first time recently, and let me tell you, it was one of the best stores I've ever been in. The space is enormous, with a vast collection of albums and other cool stuff. The staff is extremely nice and approachable, which made my time there even better. Real Groovy is the place to go, and I heartily urge anyone to visit there!! (´▿`)

I have been a customer with Real Groovy for more than 20 years and have seen them in various locations around upper Queen Street over the years. Visiting for the first time this year (2023) and since they moved to the new location (well advertised) I was happy to see a familiar sign missing for many year; the Neon Real Groovy sign. Heading up the escalator I was greeted my more Neon and possibly the best layout yet (for Real Groovy) that I've seen up to now. A staff member greeted me and directed me to the trade in counter, and I quickly found myself flicking through the records. Trade In voucher was handy to help pay for the gems I'd picked up. Great new location and the staff are as passionate about Music now as they were when I first visited all those years ago. Keep it up gang.

Real Groovy has lots of hard-to-find disc collections. They have a storage area where you may leave your bag. My partner and I were stopped by a staff at entrance and were told to leave our bags at the storage area, which is understandable. However, they did not tell other (non-Asian) customers to leave their bags. Therefore, I feel disheartening with the double standard that I experienced. It is a fine policy, but when it only impose to a certain group of people and not others, this is when segregation is felt. The storage area only has our bags, it is very empty. I hope the policy is applicable to all individuals with bag pack the next time I visit the store.

A sense of calm and happiness washed over me to see the famous neon back above the entrance , The new shop is the best yet , took a few years to reach perfection but it has now been achieved , I love it , Staff are great too !! ,

I mainly deal with Real Groovy online currently & are yet to visit their new store. However, having been a customer for more decades than I care to remember, I have visited their previous locations on many occasions & it was always a great experience. We are fortunate to have several other great record stores across the country, but no one else has the range or experience of Groovy. Due to this experience, the pricing of second-hand items is correct for the New Zealand market & gradings are generally fair & consistent. There will always be the occasional issue when purchasing used vinyl. However, any I've had with Groovy purchases (very few over hundreds of purchases) have been promptly & fairly dealt with. Online orders are always packaged well, sent promptly & the partnership with New Zealand Post works great for me. A great Kiwi icon!

Awesome new big store with so many records to choose from. Great selection! We went to look at a project record player and there weren't many on display but only because they had just moved stores two weeks ago. Look forward to returning soon and seeing the new display.

Purchased a turntable system. Not cheep. Got it home and no speaker cables after I specifically asked if it came with them rang the store and they said to come and collect aome. Went to the store and they offered cable so short you would need to sit the speakers on top of each other thanks though to Henry for arranging longer cables .
