The House of Vinyl began in 2019 as an online record store founded by Dom Means during his college years at Gannon University. In 2025, he opened the brick and mortar record shop location in the basement of Sports World Specialties at 645 Smithfield Street in Downtown Pittsburgh. The House of Vinyl buys and sells: vinyl records, music memorabilia, autographs, vintage concert t-shirts, concert ticket stubs and more! "At House of Vinyl, our mission is to bring people together through records—growing the vinyl community and keeping the history of music alive." -Dom Means
