WELCOME TO MAX STORE
Home of vintage treasures, good vibes and the odd backstory.
We are curators of cool, collectors of culture, and occasional over-sharers. This store started as a homeschool project with my son Max and has grown into a vintage mini empire, still run with love and a label maker.
New vintage finds are added daily. We combine postage because paying twice is just rude. Shipping is fast and tracked within Australia and internationally. Offers are always welcome.
Our collection includes music and memorabilia such as vinyl, CDs, books, sheet music, merchandise, and backstage pieces. We also stock quirky gifts, Aboriginal art, retro décor, vintage and children’s books, quality clothing in all sizes, and fabric or craft supplies for makers.
Every item is hand picked, loved, and carefully packed. You are buying directly from the original collector with no middlemen. Dispatch is quick, shipping is tracked, and returns are accepted. If there is a story behind the item we will share it and if you ask, we are happy to write you a note.
Max Store is more than a shop. It is a time capsule. Everything here has a past and maybe a future with you.
Thanks for stopping by. Follow us so you do not miss the next treasure drop.
