    I saw it on the past with a bigger selection of products, I do not know what they are doing and hope that it will return to the good days. I will go again to see it

    Excellent place to buy things. Check this store out and their website too. Great staff who are helpful and knowledgable .

    Since the close of the Virgin Megastore, J&R is the only music store in town with a deep selection of catalog items. The only complaint: complete catalogs for some with slim pickin's for others.

    J&R's original outlet, not the big PC store on the corner. It was always one of NY's best record stores—now, by default, the only big one, but with an indie heart. Visit Tue for new-release discounts. Read more

    EXCELLENT place to shop for electronics. The prices here frequently match what you'd pay online, maybe just a bit higher. I usually just get it here to not worry about shipping! :-) Great camera shop!

    The just opened a cafe! Get a free iced/hot coffee with purchase! Also told me that ALL food (incl. ice cream, fresh crepes, pizza!!) is half off after 5pm!!

    One of the only independent record stores left in Manhattan - this is a living legend! Make sure you make it out to one of their summer concerts. - @YannaBeau

    Yeah, the One Direction guys were here for a meet & greet/CD signing. Scream if you want, we'll still think you're cool.

    The cafe is a nice little haven away from the busy streets that surround it. Who knew?!

    A must visit in NYC. Not cheap, not very nice but still the best in town when it comes to computers and software.

    Shopping in New York is something everyone does and when it comes to electronics and entertainment shopping, this place is the very best and cheapest you can find. Read more

    One store for each need. Electronics, videogames, home appliances, cameras, music. One next to the other

    I'm glad they changed. The sectional system has been a problem for years.

    They shrank! Only one building and fewer floors. Selection is much smaller so plan your trip accordingly.

    Looks kind of run-down and shady, as always, but the guys on the Mac floor (top floor) seem to know what's going on.

    The best place in new york to shop for electronics. Large selection, and they will match the price if you find the same item for less somewhere else.

    Guaranteed best prices on electronics. If you find a better price within thirty days of purchase they'll match it

    The new J&R Jr is curiously positioned on the 2nd floor; so if you want a Mac or a hard drive you need to walk through the baby section.

    The restrooms here are reason enough to never wear open shoes in NYC.

    Joe & Rachelle Friedman opened their first music store on Park Row in New York City in 1971, where they sold vinyl LPs of the current chart-toppers.

    Not happy with this "going vertical" thing. It's a little harder to shop. Will have to get used to this :-(

    To get the free parking make sure you get your ticket stamped before leaving or else you'll have to walk back.

    What kills this place is the cashiers. Everything they do is with an ass face, when they do. Most likely they just won't help at all.

    The cashier was rude. She took the next person in line even though I had not finished at the counter. She also proceeded to give me an exacerbated look when I erred on my PIN number.
