Disc Replay

great price for new and old movies. with the new remodel even better. I AM A MOVIE FAN WITH 300 PLUS MOVIES MOSTLY BOUGHT USED. trust them there great

Reasons why I love this place:
–Went to go buy a video game that just came out and I went to see if they had. (Because sometimes they do get recent video games used) and it was for sale for $ 60. Same price as a new one at Target or Walmart. Without even saying anything… The guy said, «Doesn’t make sense to sell it full price if this is suppose to be a used store.» So he gave my $ 5 off. Which was awesome. $ 5 is a lot for a broke college student.
–Bought a Nintendo 3DS, and there were some issues with the way it looked. It didn’t have a normal bottom, and when I got home, I opened it and the stick thing (whatever it’s called) was ripped. So I returned and they got a 3DS from another location to be shipped there. It also didn’t take that long. They called me the next day saying they had it ready for pick up.
Negative side.
–The obvious is that it is a USED store. So some of the product may not work so ALWAYS keep the receipt.
–The prices aren’t always cheap either. I see some items that are $ 50+ that I can’t get on the Internet for $ 25.
Still giving its 5 stars because those dislikes are nothing. Still a great place to shop.

My son loves this place. We’ve been going here since I can remember. I have never thought about this place much. The other day my son bought a used Kindle and within a week it was malfunctioning. He wanted to return it. On the way to the store my son informed me that he had lost the receipt. I was somewhat irate as I know most places would not even consider returning the item without the receipt. Fortunately this is not like other places. Ian, the associate that initially sold us the item was more than helpful and was willing to give us a store credit. I was elated as I was certain the transaction was not going to go this smoothly. He pulled up the transaction, because it was so recent. He remembered us and even commented that my son and I are in there often. That statement spoke volumes. The other associates are always so helpful and considerate. If you’re looking to make a couple bucks by selling your old games, dvds, etc. Or you are looking for reasonably priced similar items, this is the place. We will definitely keep coming back. Thanks Ian.

This was my first time in a Disc Replay. I assumed it was just a Gamestop clone, but the DRs are a lot more fun! They have a good selection of games from not just the last 2 generations, but ALL generations. Plus the consoles, controllers, and accessories to go along with those games. Plus they have movies, memorabilia, and a staff that doesn’t seem confined to a script like GS employees. If you like games or movies, take a look here.

Where do I begin… the following is true
October 2013
My fiancé says let’s get into the halloween spirit and go get a horror dvd. He sees leatherface, a Texas chainsaw massacre installment, and says it terrified him as as child we should re watch. We purchase.
Imagine our surprise when the opening credits roll to kevin Costner riding a horse across a civil war battle field. That’s right.
One of the hipsters working the counter decided to have a go at us and replace our dvd with dances with wolves.
We called to complain and they said we need to return both case and dvd for store credit but leatherface is gone.
Well, dance with wolves is a great film so we kept it.

Cd shopping
My husband picks up a dokken cd priced at 7.99
… we were both confused a) this is a used store, right? B) has their been some dokken resurgence this year unbeknownst to us
We question the price at the counter, and are told it is accurate… we proceed to purchase the dokken cd as new off amazon, with mp3 as well and free shipping… for 4.75… my point being I would have forked over 5 bucks… but I’m not gonna have a hipster sell me a used dokken cd for 8 bucks… when they probably shelved out a quarter for store credit… and come on, it’s dokken!
They should change their name to game replay, because they have no interest in compact disc buyers.

One word. Wow. First off, the management at disc replay is outstandingly amazing. I’d like to thank everyone that is a part of the DR team for being apart of my life. I love you guys. If you guys left Orland Park, I wouldn’t know what to do with myself. I’m here at least once a week and always greeted with joy.

Disc Replay of Orland Park is a hidden gem in the used media marketplace. I used to always pass this store and think it was just like all the other shops that sell preowned items, such as Gamestop or Half Price Books. Boy was I wrong. First off the store layout is very welcoming and easy to find what you are looking for whether it be music, movies or games. Adding to this was their very helpful staff who helped me find a movie that I was unable to find on the shelf. Only because i was looking in the wrong section. In addition to that they also paid way more than other shops for my used items, I had traded in an Xbox 360 and Wii with some games to go towards a Playstation 4. Overall I was very happy with my experience and plan to make Disc Replay my first stop when buying any preowned media in the future.

So after calling here inquiring about disc cleaning and being quoted $ 4 dollars to clean a game disc I decided to make the trip here (about 30 minutes from home). I was informed by phone they closed at 9. Not once did the mention that it may take awhile to clean a disc. So once I get here and look around a bit (not knowing it would be a longer process to clean discs) I present my discs to the kid at the front for cleaning. He looks at the discs and tells me it will take 10 minutes per disc and he’ll take my name and number to have someone call me when they’re done, or I could come back tomorrow. (Uh no. I’m not driving another 30 minutes back here for terrible customer service). It was 8:50 and they didn’t even offer to clean one disc. Talk about laziness. Isn’t a business supposed to go above and beyond for their customer? Even after making mention that I drove for a half hour to get there I still didn’t receive an offer to clean even one disc (even though there was time). Once I said I would just go to GameStop and buy a cleaning set the kid up front told me how none of that even works and insinuated the only thing that works is their machine. (I used to work at gamestop. I’m not stupid. The cleaning set works. Maybe not as good as their machine but does work.) I was shocked at the mudslinging at another companies product. Not only did they not want to do anything at all to help me, they were trying to keep me from using anyone else’s products as if I’m supposed to be sol or desperate to come back. I don’t know how this place manages to stay in business. I highly recommend going ANYWHERE else you can and using this place ONLY as a last resort. Maybe they should try to be a little more helpful to their customers.

Nice store, despite that I had to subtract a star for the fact some of the vinyl I spotted here was definitely overpriced. And darnit, why can’t the Skokie (Village Crossing) Disc Replay stock vinyl? :(I think it’s quite cool that some Disc Replays chose to do that, unlike others. I only was in here really briefly since my Unilocal group went on to Granite City that night we did that UYE, but the vinyl selection was much better than I was expecting it to be. I’ll judge how the other sections of the store are like, when I get back here again.
I’ll let the lack of vinyl at a different location issue slide, since that Skokie Disc Replay is close to a Half Price Books that stocks vinyl. :)

Saw a Groupon offer ($ 10 for $ 20) and I knew I had to jump on it. Been to this store numerous times before, but hey, its been a while-​been patronizing HPB for awhile-​time to spread the love.
So they went through a little reorganizing inside while I was gone. The LPs are shoved all the way to the back in a corner near the window. Reduced in size, they have a clearance section of your typical dime-​a dozen vinyls, all for the grab-​bag price of $ 5 for 5. Actually found some great gems in these bins.
New arrivals are near the door. Picked up a Gary Moore LP for $ 6.99. Next stop was the CD section. When you buy CDs here, you’re almost guaranteed that they’re mint. They had a reasonable clearance of $ 2.99 each or buy 2 get 1 free. And so I did, picking up some Peter Gabriel, Kate Bush, and Sabbath CDs in excellent condition.
Overall a great place to hit in the burbs if you are a music aficionado like me. And you can grab a bite next door at Baby’s.

I’m going to update my review now that I’ve been to two other Disc Replays. First off, I’ll give this one major props for being the cleanest and most organized of all the other ones I’ve been to. Not a single disc was out of place.
However, as my friend Dan B has mentioned the prices are higher than the other Disc Replays. I thought they were all owned by the same people, so not sure why this is. I happened to scope out the pop/​rock section as well as the new releases and found quite a few items that I’d buy if they were a little cheaper. I did find Weezer’s Pinkerton ($ 6.99) to complete my Weezer anthology and The Rocking Horse Winner ($ 5.99 I think) Both of these albums are well worth the money so I’m happy with my purchases. I stopped myself from buying a few other albums I’ve been wanting though due to the pricing.
The girl that waited on me was amazingly friendly and the kind of cool chick that I would want to hang out with daily because of her bad ass taste in music and style.
I still love this Disc replay and will still come here whenever I’m in the OP area because of their great selection, but I will find myself binge buying a lot less now that I know how the pricing compares with the other ones I’ve been to.

I have been to several other Disc Replays in the surrounding area and have found them to be very pleasant experiences, so this review is not a reflection on the chain itself, but the Orland Park location alone.
It would be truly difficult for this location to more clearly express a constant sense of disrespect for their customers. In the last decade I have been to this store many times and I can count on one hand the number of times I have been greeted upon walking in. There is an air of hipster/​snobbery that hangs pretty heavily (think Jack Black out of High Fidelity and you’ll be prepared). Do not expect to be acknowledged until you are standing at the counter with your purchase, and even then you may need to wait until the sales associates finish their personal, asinine conversations. With very rare exception, employees could not give less of a damn about the customers needs or even putting forth an effort to feign professionalism. Over all rude.
The games and music selection could be better, but every once in a while you’ll stumble onto something interesting. The older generation gaming selection feels over-​priced if you ask me. Mainly when I do come by the store, it is for DVDs or Bluray. Their movie selection is certainly respectable. The store has expanded several times to accommodate that inventory. Generally prices are fair enough. Now and then I will bring a DVD box to the counter for purchase only to be told that they are unable to find the disc for the box and cannot sell it to me. But that isn’t TOO frequently.
Years ago you could get reasonable price for cash trade-​ins here. I needed cash pretty badly one day and came in with a sizable stack of VHS. I left with nearly $ 120 in my pocket. Today however, what they offer for cash is laughable. I do not imagine store credit that much better.
Again, this location is constantly expanding so the majority of folks must not mind being treated as though their business is not needed or appreciated. But personally, since the Half-​Price Books opened across the street where the staff is ALWAYS: Polite. Welcoming. Professional. Attentive. Knowledgable. Incredibly helpful… my patience for this Disc Replay has run out.
Either go to another Disc Replay location or go across the street to HBP.

I agree with the other reviewers about the not so attentive employees. This place has a decent selection of overpriced vinyls but if you wait a bit they will lower the prices. Don’t expect to get much money for anything that you sell them. Get store credit instead. Once in a while you will find a gem. Try Reggie’s on State street, downtown for the best selection ever or Beverly Records on the south side. You can also pick up some deals at Half Price books in Orland!

Disc Replay in Orland Park is a large used video game, music, and movie store. Located near the Orland Square Mall, this store is a good place to find second-​hand goods. Unfortunately, after finding them whether or not they will be reasonably priced is another matter entirely which we will delve into shortly.
If you’ve never visited a Disc Replay before I’ll go over the basics. This is a store where people buy, sell and trade in their old DVDs, Blu-​Rays, CDs, and various video games of all platforms. Out of print and hard to find games, CDs and movies are locatable at such stores and generally being used these items can be found quite a bit cheaper than they were when they were new. Browsing around for games you’ve always wanted to play, movies you’ve always wanted to see and CDs you’ve wanted to listen to can be an enticing endeavor and is what has fueled the popularity of this particular chain of secondhand shops in Chicagoland. Now on to the specific details of the Orland Park location.
The first thing to note about this store is the layout, most other Disc Replays I’ve visited (and that’s most of them in the area) are one long store with the items along the sides and a counter to check out towards the back. This one is laid out slightly differently, with the store being wide from the door rather than long and the counter being right towards the front. The positives of this store are that it has a larger video game selection than most. This includes both retro and modern games and consoles. As a result of having the larger than most inventory, this particular location boasted a fair number of unique and interesting pieces of merchandise. They had a decent but not outstanding movie section, and their music section was smaller than other Disc Replays.
As referenced earlier the big downside with this store was the pricing. A lot of the items I was interested in were priced higher than they might be at other disc replays or other second-​hand stores in general. While I understand there needs to be a profit made on items, I’d describe this store as generally being a tad overpriced.
Overall, I might stop here again but I wasn’t as impressed with the store as I am with others. While they have a decent inventory, their pricing is shaky to high.

Their listed hours and the hours in which they’ll actually do work are two very separate things. I shouldn’t really expect much from a store that employs high school dropouts, but when you stop doing your job an hour before the store actually closes then what’s the point of paying people to do nothing for that extra hour? Fortunately, there are numerous other places for me to go that offer similar services. Don’t bother wasting your time here.

From the moment I walked in I felt as I just came to a house/​frat party that I wasn’t invitited too, as the staff were all just hanging around the desk joking with one another:
«Dude, no way you’re that old! I thought you were still in high school.»
«No, dude. I’m 28. And if you think that’s crazy my husband is 30.»
«No way. That’s you’re husband. I thought that was your boyfriend, and he was in school too.»
«Haha. No…»
The others:
«Ya know what I want to hear? Rush!»
«Yeah, dude. I love Rush.»
«I’m gonna put on that CD.»
«Awesome, man. Do that…»
I got to a point where I wanted to pull up a seat next to the desk and spark up a joint. There was no. «Hey, how are you… if you need any help just let someone know…»
It’s not like I want them to be over bearing or anything, just take notice of my exisistance. I wasn’t there with anything I was looking for, just there to check them out. I’ve seen Disc Replays around but have never gone in, and from that I’m not really missing anything special. Sure, some of there prices are decent, but somethings are just crazily over priced. I saw box sets (of used stuff, since that’s all they sell) that I could walk over to Walmart and buy brand new for ten dollars less. I don’t know who does their pricing, but I think its time they head out into the world and see what costs what.
So, unless I’m looking for something specific, I won’t really bother with Disc Replay

I’m torn with this store. I have to take the good with the bad. What’s good. They will take CD’s off my hands (not all, but some). I check with ebay and find there is no market for most of my CD’s, and Disc Replay will usually take them for pennies on the dollar and I always take the store credit, not cash. Anything they don’t take, I donate to the public library.
More good. You can pick up some good LP’s but they price them rather high. I found a great Rick Derringer LP that I lost over the years and picked it up on store credit. I have added to my Simpson’s DVD collection as well as a few other movies here and there for a good price.
Now the bad: watch their pricing, they change prices occasionally. Visit the store often and keep up with what is new and grab them early. I recently purchased a box set DVD of a famous gangster movie (3 movies and a the making of…). It was stickered at about $ 26 and I felt it was a good deal and bought it. When I got home, I removed the sticker only to find a previous sticker underneath dated two weeks prior. It was ~$ 19. Looks like I was just in time for the Christmas season markup.
Anyway, take it or leave it, there is definitely some hidden treasures there regardless of what you are in to. It also gives you an old school record store feel back before the big box stores. Check ‘em out and take the good with the bad.

I went in today with 27 CDs that I thought might be sellable (all in very good condition, decent bands/​soundtracks). The employees looked through them all a couple times and separated out 12 of the CDs that they would be willing to buy. I had two CDs that were still sealed and unopened in the original packaging, and those were quickly placed in the «yes» pile. They then offered me $ 12 in cash, which I accepted because $ 1 a piece is about all you’ll get on
and this way I didn’t have to send them out to 12 different locales. It was a little disappointing that they didn’t feel they needed the other CDs. A woman came in while I was in there to sell some DVDs and the same thing happened to her. They take a few, but due to overstock they don’t need certain titles. All in all, it’s a pretty okay deal. If I was looking for store credit, I could have gotten 40% more, which I’m guessing could have gotten me some bargains if I was looking to buy.

I am surprised by the reviews so far. This place is not as great as everyone has touted. There are some good things going on here, but are also a lot I’m not a fan of.
In my opinion, the selection is mediocre. The CD assortment is dominated by decent 90’s CD’s that we’ve all already owned at one point or another. If you are searching for that Chumbawumba CD that you’ve been meaning to get for the past 13 years or so, you’re in luck: they have about 25 copies. On display. Taking up shelf space. The same goes for their video games, which again, if you’re looking for NBA Jam or some redundant, low-​quality game they will have 30 copies of it for you. Whereas if you’re looking for some CD or game a little more indie, you’re most likely not going to find it.
Which is funny, because the employees are of the young, hipster, tattooed variation. You’d think the music selection would be better. I understand that this business thrives on people bringing in their used CD’s. But that is a testament to how most peoples’ tastes in music are pretty bad, and that maybe a business revolving around it is questionable.
Also, the trade-​in value for CDs, games, etc. is a ripoff. They clearly offer you less than they are worth. This must be how they’ve been open for so long though.
I will say that on occasion, you WILL find something of interest to you there. Disc Replay is located by my old neighborhood, so I’ll pop in every now and then and look for a diamond in the rough, if you will.
I also like how you can listen to a CD you’re planning on buying beforehand, to make sure it plays well (although I’ve never done that.)
Disc Replay is what it is: a small used CD, movie, and game shop with mostly crap, but you’ll get lucky once in a while.

My boyfriend and I no longer go to Best Buy or Circuit City to buy our CDs, we go straight to Disc Replay. It’s the only place left in our neck of the woods since Unabused Music and the Music Recyclery both closed. They have a vast selection of used CDs, DVDs, and games, just be prepared to dig around to find something worthwhile, and we always leave with a bag full of new music. The staff has always been really nice and helpful, wether it’s the classics you’re searching for or something that just came out.
