Evening all,

was wondering if anyone knew where i could sell some vinyl records. Mostly classical. They belong to my mum, and she is wanting to know where to go, so as not to get ripped off.

eBay would probably be the best bet. The Rare Record Price Guide is a good resource for determining the value of your collection.

Although it's easier, you're likely to only get as much as half the list price of a record when you sell them to record stores.

To be honest mate a lot of vinyl is worth very little. Of course it depends on what it is etc. but most of the time it won't be worth too much unless it's either limited or is an early release and not many were printed.

Saying that I know little about classical vinyl but I'd guess it would depend on who is perfoming it and if it's desirable to a collector or not. I could be wrong though.

Just search for some of the titles on the web and see what price they get listed for.

Neither Record Collector or Reflex would be interested in buying classical LPs, as they don't sell them.

Rare 'N' Racy buy/sell classical records, and I concur with trying ebay. Some classical LPs are pretty valuable to collectors these days.
