• The Artist
• The Title
• The Condition

The condition can be just as important, if not more, than the name of the singer or band. Even if it is a rare album or a single  from a popular artist, the record itself has little or no value if it was not taken care of. Call Paul to learn if your records are worth money!

Play Grading is when you place the vinyl record on a turntable and listen very closely to the sound quality, watch for skipping and other sound defects.

It's best to try out a number of systems first before settling on one turn table. Be sure to choose the turn table that most accurately plays the records. Placing the vinyl record on a turn table is also a good way to see if it is warped or bubbled from heat damage.

Visual Grading is when you use a particular light source at a short distance away from the record as you inspect it. Halogen and direct natural sunlight work best.

Defects that were not visible on lower wattage lights now become profound when using a stronger light source or direct natural sunlight. As with the Play Grading, finding a light source that works best for you is important. It ensures your records were graded and priced appropriately.

There were only two copies known of Do I Love You (Indeed I Do), which is a rare 45-rpm Northern Soul track by Frank Wilson. This copy sold in 2009 for $37,000. Our preferred vinyl records are 45’s and 78’s. 

There is always a market for old vinyl records! There were changes made to Bob Dylan’s second album before its 1963 release. According to Record Mecca there were four songs replaced with newly recorded tracks, but a mistake was made at the pressing plant and the old version instead of the new masters were pressed. There was an unknown number pressed. Only a few copies of the old version have surfaced over the years, and less than two dozen of the mono copies are known to be in existence. They are believed to be one of the most valuable records in the world. We can provide information on how much your old records are worth after a thorough assessment and vinyl record grading inspection.

It's important to have a professional vinyl record buyer with years of experience look at your records with the correct tools and lighting. Anyone with little or no experience in records may not see or hear minor imperfections with the record. They also may not know how to calculate the price correctly as the condition of the record is just one factor in determining the final cost of the record or collection.
