Liberty Vinyl Plans To Shut Down In Lansdale

LANSDALE, PA — A bit of sad news emerged this week for fans of local music shops.

Liberty Vinyl, the unique record store located inside Liberty Vapor, is shutting down after they were told no one under 18 can enter.

The record store remains open for the time being, as the entire store is 30 percent off. That includes vinyl, record players, speakers, and clothing, owners announced in a statement issued on social media Monday.

"We don’t feel that music should be restricted to adults," the statement read, in part. "So the choice was made to close the record store."

As of Jan. 1, no one under 18 is allowed to enter due to regulations regarding products sold by Liberty Vapor.

On Feb. 1, no one under 21 will be allowed in.

An exact final closing date for Liberty Vinyl has not yet been announced.

Liberty Vapor, which will remain open, store sells electronic cigarettes and related supplies. They also recently announced they would no longer be selling pre-filled pods or pre-filled pod systems, due to changing FDA regulations.

Liberty Vapor and Liberty Vinyl are located at 306 N. Madison Ave. There is also a Liberty Vapor location in Phoenixville on 322 Bridge Street.
