Ive been going to this place since I was a child. It is a great spot for people who truly love music, movie, games, books, etc. They have fair prices and offer a return period for most items, so if you dont like it you can exchange the purchase within a week or so. The staff are mostly quite knowledgeable and willing to help and offer advice whenever needed. Hope this store stays forever.
Been going here for decades, however on my last visit, they were quite disorganized. Many of the items did not have price tags. I bought two DVD movies for my nephews birthday, but they could not find the discs (they display the cases, but the discs are stored behind the counter to prevent a-holes from ripping them off).
Bought a movie, had scratches, to which I mentioned, older gentleman states oh its dirty & proceeds to swirl it around on his shirt, says there, just like new. I stated thats NOT how you clean a DVD, SURE it is. I bought it against my better judgement as Id been wanting (& looking for) this movie for awhile. Needless to say it froze up at one point, so I called to ask what could be done, he says I remember you, & I find it interesting out of the 7 months Ive been working here youre the ONLY one with a problem. It most likely your player. Maybe you should just buy new...well exchange it or whatever you want to do. Then hung up on me.THAT in my opinion is NOT how to handle a customer, especially since all I wanted was for them to resurface the dvd since they have the machine to do so.And NO $8 for a USED dvd is NOT a good price. However I didnt want to wait 2-3 weeks for shipping so I paid more than I wouldve online.And I dont feel this fella is in the right job, he has ZERO customer service skills.
Great place with eclectic old media! Friendly and knowledgeable staff. Ok record collection, lots of jazz and crooners.
I used to love coming to bog beans. Iw would be able to trade my movies in to get some new games. BUT NOW... YOU CAN ONLY TRADE MOVIES FOR MOVIES, GAMES FOR GAMES, I CANT EVEN USE MY IN STORE CREDIT FOR ANYTHING ELSE. SORRY BOG BEANS. IM GONNA MISS YOU.
Really friendly people working there. Great music, great deals, it’s all around amazing.
Great place with an eclectic selection of games, movies, books, and music. Just about anyone can find what theyre looking for here and the employees will help you find it if you cant.
Great used products sold at reasonable prices. Shop always checks products before putting on the shelf. Sells records, game consoles, video games, dvds, CDs, and VHS. This shop has a wide range of genre and theres always more to explore. I love this shop !!!
I moved up here the end of 2010/2011 and was introduced to bog bean by my brother and iv been going there every since. Great staff, great stull and all around great place.
This place has a lot of different and unique items. But everytime I go in there the staff acts to cool to help you. If you ask them a question about anything they act like you are bothering them. I really like the store but customer service is lacking.
Great place with a old time fell, wish I had a job here. Maybe one day i will get a chance.
An interesting place for this area! There was a large selection of games and music over many genres. Everything was clean and clearly labeled. Staff was low pressure and allowed for easy browsing. Seems like a fun place for frequent visits to keep up on changing inventory. Pricing seemed pretty fair to me.
Helpful friendly people. Books, DVD, games, game stations. Helped with my 3ds when best buy and game stop wouldnt/couldnt. Although the decor is stuck in the 70s. Prices and service excels.
I love this place. Fun to see used items being treasured. Love the records,video games,books,videos.
My 11 year old son and I love coming in. He bought his first albums there a few years back and we go there a few times a month to see whats new. For his birthday the other day he asked for a Bog Bean gift certificate. Ive found lots of good stuff and treasures there since I started going in the mid 90s
I love little old school shops like this. Lots of albums and CDs and DVDs its just a fun shop you can browse.
Loved there store,that warn,old,hippie,rock,jass feeling. Guy that halp me real nice, hard playstation 3 games yea i got 3 i will be back ty Bogge bean. David
Love this store. Has all those things that old school people like, albums, tapes, and yes sometime they may even haven eight-track, and movies. They buy and sell games and systems plus albums.
Looks like home,great collection of music,takes orders calls you when it shows up, good guys
Throwback store. Help support the buy, sell, trade merchants. Few and far between. Super nice employees.
This store is a treasure trove of movies, books, music and even games! Staff is friendly and welcoming. If your interested in VHS tapes, vinyl records or games this is your place for great value!
It is truly an old school used record and CD store that has been around awhile. Obscure items to be found but you gotta look!
Bogbean is the best! You just never know what youll find there. Nice selection of books, DVDs, CDs, vinyl and video games. Support local music stores!
Bought a ps3 from them said it work brought it home and doesn’t work the power supply it broken on the back of the System And hdmi plug as well don’t not test there stuff and poor customer service doesn’t have time for there customer
Cool little shop in downtown, I’ve scored many records here for a reasonable price. They have lots of other cool random “blast from the past” type stuff. Worth taking a walk through at the least.
Great prices if you dont mind used movies although they have much more than movies and the people are great!!!
Great place to buy used dvds, cds, video games and records. The staff is extremely friendly and when they have the time if they arent too busy, to help suggest other items that are similar to what youre looking for. Very knowledgeable about most of the artist and genre that they have in stock. If you live in the area it is wise to go there frequently because they always getting something new in. Check out there Instagram, they post new record that they just got in.
Kinda like Blockbuster but actually good. Nice selection of pretty much any disc under the sun.
Neat place, owner seems a little strange.
It was a very good experience for me. They recently changed their policy on dvds. Now, when you take your own dvds in to sell, they will only offer in store credit. But worked out for me.
Great stuff! Always something new.
Walked in with the kids looking for books and promptly walked right back out. We didnt see very many books--mostly movie---and much of their selection is of the horror genre. My kids felt uncomfortable there and so did I. The people standing at the counter were nice enough--greeted us as we came in and said goodbye as we left.
Honestly useless to go here now. They go off of GameStop prices so just go to GameStop for that stuff. And now most of what they have is antiquated and outdated
Great selection new and old, like a trip through a time machine
Bogbean is a unique store in Redding and its one of the few that can do this .You usually see this kind of stories in the big cities but Reddings lucky enough to have them..... And what are they....?¿?A very of used music DVD games and more type store.if youre trying to save some cash and get some good entertainment this is a place to go.....and their stuff is not beat up.they actually have good quality stuffand its next to New .so if you want to get that awesome movie thats probably 20 bucks go there and get it for 10 or 5 instead you just cant beat the deals.
Staff has always been friendly and you can find awesome things ....
First time visiting Redding, and I dropped in for a bit before heading back to Stockton, they have a great selection of CDs. I came out with a stack of CDs of some of my favorite bands to listen to for the drive home. I will be back the next time I go to Redding.
Tons of dvds! Music equipment, cds, records, games, books, they even have atari games and game boy color games! Nice staff and great prices.
Great place and friendly staff
LOVE this place. We still buy video tapes and DVDS so this place is perfect. Service and selection is excellent.
My husband and myself came in when we were visiting from Washington. The store was nicely set up and well priced. We walked in and greeted immediately. The gentleman talked with us about different things as we picked out a great selection. I asked about kids books and was kindly given one for my daughter. Then came time to pay. We had 11-17 items and he gave us a great deal!! We scored nemo Dreamland for like 8$!! Down here they want close to 15$! That alone was amazing. Only thing I did wrong was forget to come back before we left town!! Def. Recommended to any game collector.
One of my favorite places to waste some time on town. Everyone who works here is awesome. If you arent sure about an album you want to buy, you can have them play it on their awesome sound system
Brought in some video games that were given to my son as a gift that were a little out of his age range they were helpful and gave us a great deal on trade ins
Weird in the best way! Best place for unique gifts for a bargain. Pretty awesome frequent buyer program too. Get retro and shop local.
I went on my birthday to just look around and they ended up giving me a free CD after they found out. Super generous and it meant a lot. Very nice people and I will definitely be back.
Best store ever made! If you disagree youre probably never right...ever! Great store with great selection of retro games, books, music, and movies. Something for people of all ages.
I went in to get some cassette tapes. There was a good selection and the prices were cheaper than what Ive seen online.
Great pricing, decent selection & totally awesome staff
Great variety of media and a friendly staff.
This place is off the hook, Im an avid collector of vintage videogames and stop by once a month to see there stock, they only take in the best quality stuff and I never worry about getting fake or broken console or games the price is always fair and reasonable. the staff is very chill and awesome to just chat with. Ive been going to this place from my early childhood, so every time I visit it brings back memories :)The have a very welcoming environment, keeping it classic with abstract psychedelic art and a robust test in music. Trust me when i say this place will make u feel at peace when looking for that long lost mix tape or album u once had10/10 all around will always be a returning customer
You can find a game for any console. If you buy 9 games you get 1 free.
Great staff. Great collection of books, music, and games from over the years.
Ive been shopping here for over 20 yrs...great place to save on dvds books video games ect
Great used books, movies, games and more.
I love this store. Lots of fun things. Generally inexpensive prices.
Mike is there every time I visit and is very helpful.
Pretty good exchange prices
I love going here to add to my game collection. The employees are very friendly and helpful in regards to what they have. Their stock changes regularly so I try to stop by anytime I am in Redding.
Great place to buy movies Cds and a nostalgic game and music memorabilia
Very friendly and helpful. Great cd and vinyl selection.
The guy I dealt with this morning was very rude to me. I am guessing most of these reviews are fake. They do not test their electronic products before putting them out for sale. They will charge you top dollar for used products and only give you 3 days to return for STORE CREDIT. I bought a 90$ Ipod mini that has a battery that will not hold a charge and the AUX input does not work. I was out of town and took it back in and the guy was a total jackass. Just acted like I was just wasting his time. They charge too much money for basically everything in there . They are selling comics for 3 dollars plus that I have found most other places like this for only a dollar. This is one small example of the unfair prices. I will be shopping online for any further products that I would have sought out there. Guaranteed to find better deals without worrying about having to deal with exchange in the next THREE DAYS.
This is a great place to get your used video games dvds and other entertainment needs. They also offer stamp cards where when you buy so many of one product you get one free. always friendly and locally owned
Great music selection great service
Quaint, lots of old media, nice people
THIS STORE IS CLASSIC... FULL OF WHATEVER YOU DESIRE IN FILM TV AND A DECENT BOOKS SECTION.... THE STORE IS REALLY ECLECTIC AND FUNKY WITH A GREAT AMBIENCE MUSIC PLAYING ALL THE TIME AND FUN DECOR WITH A REALLY HIP AND GROOVY STAFF.... I LOVE GOING IN AND JUST LOOKING AROUND... I NEARLY ALWAYS FIND SOMETHING INTERESTING THAT I REALLY MUST HAVE
Great atmosphere and selection of entertainment was also amazing. For the retro gamer this is a must see shop
Unfortunately there was no bog or beans to be found. Luckily the cashiers personality was a good substitute. Five out of five, would smash again
A good selection of books, comics, video games, movies and music - a fun place to shop!
Pretty neat place to sift through. I came in looking for records to listen to, but the prices forced me to Amazon.
Great used DVD store
This is a privately owned, quaint store in a great location. I highly recommend checking it out!
Jimi Hendrix on turntable
Up and down on there purchases that they advertise as for things they will buy, other than that it is a game store and record store for older music, old school hippie vibe co relax place to kick it
Bog bean has been around forever. They sell used books, movies, games and tons of vinyl. Cool, hip shop, usually have something worth checking out.
Love bog bean!
If your going to stop in Redding this is rad record store
Always great to walk in and just look aroubd for a while, great selection of old games, books, albums, etc. Never busy and great staff. While some stuff is overpriced, its mostly on par or lower than any price online.
Theres not many places like this around anymore. I love going in and browsing through their CDs, movies and video games. You never know what youll find.
Not a bad place. Lots of records and movies. There isnt that many books though.
Quite possibly the hippest place in Redding. I actually experienced a profound sort of culture-shock when I first walked in the door; it felt like Id instantly been teleported into one of Seattle or San Franciscos art districts. Fantastic variety of cool stuff in here, totally cool vibe, your mileage might vary but definitely check it out at least once.
Great selection of DVDs, Blu-rays, CDs, comics and vinyls! Friendly and helpful staff, lovely and cozy atmosphere, with fair prices.
Used to be the best place for cds and video games.. Till gamestop came into town. This place has a lot of cool throwback games and used consels though.Nice 70s like atmosphere I supposed
Best place in town to get games for my kids.
Movies and Games at a great prices!!
Always the best on deals with movies!
This place is all about the money. If you wanna spend it they will take it. And if you wanna sell them your I pod or game system they will gladly rip You off.
I went looking for instruments and found only 2 or 3 guitars. Disappointed in selection of instruments
This is one of my favorite places to go for movies, music, books and games.
Awesome place to go if your on a budget and want games movies CDs or records or used game items.
Cool place
Got a PS2 and a couple games that are in perfect condition and even came with the manuals for both games
Horrible smell in store. Not helpful staff and poor selection
Steph is Chill environment is relaxing from CDs to LPS to DVDs to video games this place fizz mirvana and the staff is 5 *
