Manifest always has what ever Im looking for each time I visit. I have been going to manifest since I was a senior in high school. Its the best place to go if youre looking for new or used movies, music and/or miscellaneous things like clothes, accessories for your phone or car. Manifest even have records of all types of music. When I lived in Georgia there wasnt a place like manifest I could go to for my movies and other things like that as far as like a music store. Whenever I would come home (Charlotte), Manifest would be at the top of the list of things I would go to. Manifest has something for everyone it just depends on what you like. The staff is friendly and always willing to help you find what youre looking for. Anyone who has never been to Manifest before or youre new in town, I encourage you guys to check them out.

This was actually my favorite place on earth at one point, they had it all. If anyone remembers the store ( Media Play) my special place 😊 Manifest is the only place I would have said was comparable. But lately & I guess a lot of it maybe due to the pandemic; their stock has been very limited!

I’ve only stepped into this store twice. I went on a friend’s referral looking for good deals on movies. The selection was great and I walked away spending a bit more than I originally intended on a handful of used movies. At that time I asked about the return policy and was informed that I could return my purchases for an even exchange so long as I kept my receipt. Note that the movies I purchased had no film over them outside of the typical store tags printed and stuck to the case itself. Excited to add them to my collection, I removed said tags but, unfortunately, was not able to watch them that night due to a family emergency that spanned three days. Days later, I found the exact movies for a much better price from a different merchant - so I bought them under the impression that I could easily return my purchases from this store. Today I stepped in to do just that only to be told that I could not return the movies despite having the receipt and it only having been just a mere few days ago. When I was asked why I wanted to return them, I honestly informed that I had found a better deal and simply wanted to exchange the movies for others of equal or lesser value - no cash back and willing to take a loss. I was informed, yet again, that I am not able to do that because “rental days are over.” While being called a liar, I understood the merchant’s point of view. I would’ve understood this response further had my request been a repeated pattern. It was not. It was my first time. After all, how could he be so sure that I didn’t just go home and watch the movies only to decide I didn’t like them and wanted to choose something else. I get it. Yet, I was not lying. When I asked for the return policy to be expanded upon I was informed that a return could occur if “the movies did not work”. To which I asked, “if I had lied to you instead and stated that these movies didn’t work, what then?” The merchant replied with, “we’d test them out like we do all of our movies.” Now, correct me if I’m wrong but if a disc works on your player, what good does that do me if it won’t play on my setup at home? And, what of this supposed “no hassle return” that the other merchant so confidently spoke of? I digress. So, should I have bought the movies again from the other seller for a better deal? I’m sure anyone would have done the same if they had been informed of the return policy in the way that I was; we’re all trying to save a buck or two. So, in the end my honesty got me no where - save for being called a liar - and my first, and last purchase went sour. First impressions mean everything, and as a first time customer, this was a very poor experience handled by merchants who don’t understand their own policies and can’t determine when someone is lying or not. Clearly, the customer does NOT come first at this establishment and years of being screwed by customers who in fact are lying have ruined it for the honest ones. This merchant basically said “No” and walked away (quite literally).

If you’re looking for the obscure, here is where you need to go. Excellent, EXCELLENT selection of heavy metal vinyl, punk vinyl, and classics. A staff member that was there on his day off was even nice enough to help me and my sister find a Hendrix vinyl we accidentally overlooked.

Review №14

First time in this place and it was pretty awesome! Felt kinda retro. Brought me back to my teenage years spent in a FYE or something like that looking through CDs and DVDs. They had such good collectibles and fun inventory. Lots of sales and clearance items had me looking through all the aisles intending to find great deals. I bought so much stuff and yet barely spent any money. Im definitely going to be going back. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. They let me leave all my items up at the front while I continued to shop. By the time i returned, they already had rang up and bagged my items. Talk about great customer service!

Review №24

It has a wide variety of items and quite a lot of vinyl, which is why I went in the first place. The new vinyl was expensive and even some of the used stuff was pretty steep. I walked out with nothing, not because I didnt find anything but because I wasnt prepared to pay the prices. $30 for new albums that you can get elsewhere for $22 -$25.

I went there for anime merchandize, the comments having positive reviews. But the place isnt anime heaven at all. It has lame merchandize of everything else and the place is ghetto. Definitely disappointed

I absolutely love this store! You can practically find anything. For anime nerd like myself this place is heaven and their prices are much cheaper then online or other stores like this but you get really good quality as well.

Review №36

One of the last old school record stores. Whatever musical genre you prefer they will almost always have it here. The staff has always been really helpful and friendly. They also buy and sell used CDs, so they have a great selection of gently used music with used music prices (cheap). My office is about 5 minutes from Manifest Discs, so I usually browse the selection once or twice a month during lunch. The prices are great on the new music. I like walking around the store because I love finding that CD that I LOVED back in the day, but I havent heard it in a while. I love that feeling when you get to your car, put the CD you forget you loved in the radio, turn the volume up, and drive.

This place has everything you need for your audio and video needs. It even has a staff That cares enough about you to send you to the competition Because theyre more. In tune with you getting what you want rather than making a sale. I applaud them for their honesty and their integrity. And well be doing business with them more in the future.

Let me be the first to say. I freaking love this place. I live about an hour away and when I go I make it well worth my drive. I never leave without spending a couple hundred bucks. And lord knows I spend at least 2 hours in here every time I go. Ive never not found something Ive not been looking for. Love it. Wished I lived closer but thats my fault. Again you can pretty much find anything you want to or have been looking for here. If you cant they can sometimes order it for you. Again. Great place. Great people. Awesome selection.

One of my favorite stores in Charlotte. The variety of merchandise they carry is unbelievable. Not to mention, they constantly rotate and update their merchandise. I always see so many new things each time I go in with my girlfriend. She loves every aspect of the store, music, novelties, clothing, and other random cool items they carry. I always leave spending twice as much as i planned and they have excellent prices. Katie that works there is amazing! She deserves a promotion!!!

Best old school disc (and record) store Ive found in south Charlotte. The air conditioning is always broken though so go when the weather is cool. They buy used discs and resell too. I still enjoy buying music the old way and holding it in my hand. That kinda place!

Stopped in while on vacation hoping it would be like The Exchange, a store I visit regularly back home, but it was not. They had some cool stuff, a few nice box sets for TV shows and a decent selection of Funko Pops, mostly family basic and common ones and 90% of the store was severely overpriced.

Jo
Review №71

Good, varying music on. Nice folks, buy my old lps and with store credit I get new ones. Gotta visually scan the used ones, great value there. New ones seemed priced a little high, but then you can listen in five minutes when you get home.

These guys have been around for a good while... it has lost some of the old charm. I would welcome more sales... more toys... more cool shirts... I miss the weird stuff like a Japanese Millennium Falcon T-shirt or a life-size movie prop of R2-D2 or a nice Starship Enterprise with fiber optic lights. Statuettes, Jackets.. DVDs are fading fast... but this place has a magnificent collection of music records... real records... and record players to play them on.

Review №96

I made a recent trip to Charlotte and every time I go to a city that Ive never been to before, I seek out record stores to go to before hand to see if I can find anything amazing. I can say without a doubt that Manifest did not disappoint.While the temperature in the store was probably the same as outside (around 90F), people were tirelessly working to get the AC fixed, and they did in a way in which people could still look around. The store had a charm of its own, something you dont see very often. I enjoyed the fact that they carried vinyl, DVDs, and Funko Pops. I thought that the selection was great and I plan on making another trip to Manifest next time Im in Charlotte.
