Vinyl Records

[Lloyd90]

Gf’s parents have an old pub (now closed) and they live above, well they have asked me about getting rid of all their old vinyl records from downstairs... apparently there are over 2000 from the juke boxes ? 

I’ve told them they really need to go through them and see what they’re worth as there might be some valueable ones (you never know) 

does anyone know where you could put the name of each record into and it tells you if it’s worth anything etc?

AFAIK, vinyl records are only worth anything if they come with their covers. There could be a few that someone might be interested in though.

hello, my son has a collection of over a 1000, he use to DJ in his 20s some are worth £100s mainly rare ones from USA, take your time Lloyd and see what info you can get, dust covers even better, but at a £1 each a tidy sum for your GFs parents, good luck

Have a look at the 'Discogs' website, it gives you information down to specific pressings and also an idea of price. Whatever you do, don't chuck them away. Heard far too many stories of collections going in the skip. Few years down the line and now they're in huge demand again. As above, even at 99p each on Ebay, that adds up and there will no doubt be some worth much more than that. Great find, enjoy! 

If you haven't got a turntable already, you could get hold of one and keep some for playing
