i can explain i've been collecting for a long time i did it because i liked it you know what i see the analog sound is it's amazing it's definitely homelier you have something physical in your hand to hold it's not a m p three download or a little c it's just something physical for someone to hold and it's a whole ritual within itself in never ended though i mean throughout the ninety's there was stuff being present a lot of that stuff was quite sought after because in limited pressings of the vinyl never stopped getting pressed and now just with the real insurgents we're seeing more companies starting to either repress or release new material on record as well started selling on e bay in noticing that there was a rise in in the final and we just kept up with the you know it was something we thought we'd just do on the side and it just grew up sensually interest keep grew until here we have a place you know we saw that there was a market in sarasota but we didn't think it was going to be so predominant and when we opened the doors we didn't realize that there would be so many people interested in flying records especially with the insurgents this christmas with everybody pursing turntables and record players for the kids and you can really see it as a trend up i think it's the whole thing to that old is cool sort of ordeal i mean the whole retro going backwards or than forward sort of idea in looking back at the past and what was there and turntables that an analog is an example of that it's quite weird we know we have like age range of thirteen and seventy there's no in between you know we were generalizing ok our clientele would be between the ages of thirty is collector type stuff we do want to cater to that is well that's what our main market is on the line and you know we saw it like at first that there would be such a response some of the higher and stuff in store but we were proven wrong i mean the spectrum as i said goes from wild collectors to those who just want to listen to vinyl so we're going to start slowly trickling more of our higher end stuff out i think is the only miles davis so i can't sell really it's a coming to us to try to give these records a new life in the owner that would definitely love it that's a big thing given music back to the community it's always the foot of the coin some of the rarer stuff i've seen i've had old introducing the beatles come in that were non played versions of it and also just collections that i wouldn't think i'd see a million years just come in the door filled with sealed things that are rare from the fifty's and through the sixty's and seventy's and it's incredible to see that in the original packaging yeah there's a lot of companies that still never stop making turntables and the new affordable ones they've been coming out yeah we sell refurbished ones and all of them have been cared for the new needles have been replaced on them and but other than as you alluded to quit mint we do have posters we have other stickers and also c d s and tapes and we also carry local music as well we encourage people to bring in the musicians to bring in their music and us to carry it free of charge we want to support the local community and the music and art also in the community is we also have some lot of cool art to our friends matt and jenna had started painting on just records and it grew and grew and they moved towards bigger canvases using you know multiple layers of the records and still grow in the trade on the vinyl it's really cool we love them for it for the best way is taking giving him sleeved using paper sleeves and putting on the outside and for maintenance on them distilled water for initial clean up to get all the old grime off of it and make sure clean every outgrowing this one you would like to expand and see where it goes from there and also carry more local musicians and more locals ar well we started off from work at the farmer's market over fifteen years ago and we're still down there and have been doing that every saturday  morning so i had gotten interested in orchids so that they was kind of like a hobby and like a hobby gone wild and we both had different jobs and about seven years ago the jobs finished and someone had come to us at the farmer's market and said we have this little space why don't you think about opening up a store and we said no we're not going to have a store and you know it just kind of happened so being an historic burned square we're kind of under the radar we're off of main street so we're kind of sleepy little area a lot of people find us because they're going to the movie theater and on the way they kind of see the store we don't advertise so a lot of it's always were by my word of mouth and so when you come to the store on the outside what you see is you see a lot of different plants you see are hanging orchids and a lot of the plants that we carry we do a lot of croutons a lot of are merely adds a lot of big succulents that kind of thing so we have a nice assortment of outdoor types of things for people with patios or homes or less and then when you come into the store you probably get full just we have tons of work coming we hand select them we bring them in every day sometimes twice a day so all of our kids are really fresh they've got great count if they've been here too long we scarf him up and we put them on sale at the farmer's market so other people are really happy there so when they come in they're probably overwhelmed with the amount of work is that we have a lot of the times and then takes them usually a while to realize that we have a lot of a huge variety of pots i mean that's probably the major comment that we get that we have such a variety of really nice containers for people to work at because the a lot of times you go to garden store and it's just some kind of version of a a chair or hot a more of an outdoor things that we had we carry a huge line of pots and then we have a lot of accessories a lot of accessories we really try to get american made type of products we really try to have a relationship with the with the lines that we carry the people we only carry one kind of fragrance line we carry one kind of two kinds of cards was card and paper goods but we in and a few jewelry vendors but we love the people and we really have a great relationship with them everything has to have a but tannic all inspiration otherwise it doesn't come into the store so people are usually surprised at what they find in here we sell small amounts of furniture we've got lamp success stories all that kind of thing we've got a great loyal group of customers we have a a really loyal local following that's year round  we have a fabulous seasonal group of people i kind of think of us sometimes like like your butcher or your baker because people have to come in for fresh orchids every couple of months so we always see our customers so you really get to know them so it's not like a store where you come in for you know like you visit once and you go it's really nice but you don't go back so this people always come back and we really really get to know our people i've known you know we are the most wonderful customers on the farmers market our have really turned out to be best friends i like orchids because they are very long lasting and they're tough everyone thinks that they're just like delicate you have to be really careful but truly in florida you can grow most of them outdoors but nine neglect is what it's all about where them you're not watering them all the time they like to almost dry out between waterings and then they like to get like a rain forest watering so you know they're there way tougher than people think and usually the kinds of workers that we bring in and you can read bloom them here in florida so most people are really excited when they re bloom their orchids a lot of people you know don't necessarily want to wait that long because a lot of them are only once or twice a year blooms but in general if you want to put them outside and you've got the right location with some good air circulation  fuse light you'll read bloom and people are amazed and surprised love it just love it you know it's i was always in for a long time real estate development and construction and that's a that's a tough job and you're always depending on a lot of other people to bring things together and it's just like construction is pounding especially when the economy was really going and there was a lot of pressure and we actually started doing the york is on saturday mornings because it was like a pressure relief otherwise i was working all the time and so it was a great way to do exactly what i want to play with our kids all day long a and you know and so when the store fell into place it's just you know it's like a second career that just been the best and we all fit our nation really well so you don't have to do everything but together we we all really enjoy what we do
