About The Poet's Vault

The Poet’s Vault opened on South Boulevard because Charlotte needed a record store that took the music seriously. Not a boutique with vinyl as decor. Not a shop that stocks only what’s safe and familiar. A real digger’s store — the kind where you come in for one thing and leave an hour later with five records you didn’t know you needed.

We named it The Poet’s Vault because that’s what a great record collection is — a vault of voices, stories, and moments that deserve to be preserved and heard. Every genre has its poets. Delta blues, hardcore punk, bossa nova, hip-hop, free jazz — the form changes but the impulse is the same. We stock all of it.

What We Carry

We carry new and used vinyl across every genre, CDs, cassettes, and select memorabilia. Whether you’re a lifelong collector or just getting into records, you’ll find something worth taking home.

  • New & used vinyl — all genres
  • CDs & cassettes
  • Select memorabilia & music collectibles
  • Pre-orders on upcoming releases
  • Record Store Day exclusives (April & Black Friday)
