 Founded in 1980, in Joplin, Missouri, Vintage Stock was originally called The Book Barn and sold used books. As time progressed, more energetic and insightful owners took over and saw a future in diversifying the product line to include other used or pre-owned products, including music, movies, video games, sports collectibles, trading cards, games, comics, and toys. Since then, Vintage Stock has doubled the number of stores to 10 in the past two years after being totally acquired by a group led by Rodney Spriggs, Ken Caviness, and Steve Wilcox. “The idea that retailers need to carry a wide mix of merchandise is something we pioneered a long time ago,” says Rodney Spriggs, Vintage Stock’s president and CEO.“If consumers wanted music, movies and video games they have to go to three different stores. We carry everything, all under one roof. That is the concept behind Vintage Stock. Everything you want in one store.” Vintage Stock has grown and changed with the times, while keeping a steady pulse on the past. Each Vintage Stock store can carry upward of 40,000 to 60,000 unique items, everything from Beatles memorabilia and Spider-Man comic books to Mickey Mantle autographs and Yu-Gi-Oh! trading cards to the newest DVD and music releases. |
