Pal of mine deals in vinyl records but he told me that unless it's something rare or special then old vinyl isn't worth much.

Can you please ask him what I should be looking for coloured ones, Elvis ???

Picture & coloured discs, promotional stuff, anything that was a limited pressing, anything where there was a mistake (e.g. the wrong track was pressed). I've got a Roy Harper record, Bullinamingvase, which has a track called 'Watford Gap' on it. The song is less than complimentary about the service station of the same name and he was forced to take it off under the threat of legal action (although it went onto CD in 1996).

The key is the pressing number which is usually on the inside of the record near the hole. Even two identical looking albums can be worth very different amounts of money if the pressing number is different. Plus the condition has got to be top notch for it to be worth anything. The right Beatles disc can be worth thousands.

search Totally Vinyls web space , if you have the code off the sleeve you get a better idea of price . A friend of mine sold his mums elvis and beatles records the picture discs went for £20 each , I thought they would fetch more ,but they were re presses . Lot of work , but very interesting . The record fairs we went to were full of people that really didnt want to sell their stuff . Lots of information ,but they offer nothing moneywise .
 
Re: Selling Vinyl Records

Just dug out a couple and checked their values, certainly may look at selling. The Beatles Revolver(original) and The Police Roxanne, Police badge picture disc.

I've got that Police shaped disc. Also got an original copy of ''Agadoo''. It's badly scratched now though, and the picture sleeve is a bit dog-eared. Any idea what it's worth?
