Four of Iowa's five listed shops sit in Des Moines, with Council Bluffs holding the fifth — coverage is weighted heavily toward the capital. Confirm hours, new-versus-used stock, and whether the shop will hold a record while you arrange shipping, since a gift bought here often has to travel.

Does a five-shop count mean every record shop in Iowa is listed?
No. The five listings — four in Des Moines, one in Council Bluffs, as of September 14, 2026 — show what this directory has catalogued, not a statewide survey. Smaller shops, antique malls with vinyl bins, and thrift stores that stock records only occasionally are likely absent, so call ahead before treating the list as complete.
