<p>[QUOTE=&quot;all_fakes, post: 305597, member: 55&quot;]And a great many for even less.&nbsp;&nbsp; I checked my local vintage record store, and they said that <u>in general</u>, they are not in the market for buying old records, at any price.</p><p>For almost any title from the past 80 years, issued in the thousands, they already have all they need, and cannot afford to store any more until they may or may not sell; especially considering that many records and jackets are in less than perfect condition.&nbsp; &nbsp; They&#039;ve already got 10 copies of Elvis&#039; &quot;Love me Tender,&quot; in mint condition; they don&#039;t want my ratty one.</p><p>There are exceptions of course, and I&#039;ve done my research before donating most to the local Goodwill, or my library, which does have record and book sales from time to time.&nbsp; Prices, a dollar or two.</p><p>&nbsp;&nbsp; There are some specific records that are very rare; and some genres that are collected; the old 78 &quot;race&quot; records on the Gennett label, 1917-1925 are worth something; and some of the oldest jazz.</p><p>But Guy Lombardo?&nbsp; No.&nbsp; Most rock, 1960-2017, no. Folk music? forget it.&nbsp;&nbsp; My Mom&#039;s Hawaiian hula records?&nbsp; No way.</p><p>I do have a 3.75&quot; Beatles pocket-disc, quite rare, that would be worth $300.....if only my ex-wife hadn&#039;t lost the jacket.<img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/frown.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":(" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
