Dillon is the anti-gatekeeper of the vinyl community. Good juju for giving so many good record tips to the average person.
Thank you! That means a lot! I try!
When selling to a shop, you must know that the shop needs to make a profit as well. You can’t expect to get top dollar when it needs to be sold again. This is literally how and why your local shop exists.
Well, you see pawn stars, where people want full price or more, that’s real. Some people are very realistic like you, but some think they should have it all.
Pawn shops are such a ripoff nowadays. They give you 20-30% of what somethings worth. Realistically, it SHOULD be 50/50.
@@dawnpatrol700 That's really not realistic at all. Too many factors go into deciding for it to be that clear cut.
My father was an audiophile in the ‘50s and ‘60s and I’m thankful he taught me at an early age how to properly handle and care for my records, among other valuable life lessons. I still love you, Dad.
I'm just amazed that people STILL go on eBay and assume an asking price is a market price.
Yeah it’s still happening 🤦♂️
My records are valuable because I like them 😁. They are sentimental because I started buying 45s as a kid in the 70s. Memories attached to these songs. Interesting video. I learn so much from you. Thank you 😊 💓
I only buy what I know I will actually listen to and try to not get sucked into buying as an investment. Having said that, a lot of the vinyl I bought four years ago has already tripled in value. Going from $25 to $75 in four years is a better return than my brother in law's Vanguard account!
Nice video quality and lighting for todays lesson.... Fine lesson Professor Dillon....
The information was cool as always, but I really like the new lighting and the 'portrait mode' you shot the video in. The whole thing looks more polished.
Dillon, very nice picture in the video, like the lightning, very cozy ❤️ of course as always very interesting content. Now trying to figure out about value of my gospel records 🤣🤣🤣
I got a couple crates of 90s dj beat (A & b ) just different beats or one song made long. All where for scratching and are "fussed up" but that is what they were made for so I love em.
Thank you for your help. Just getting ready to go through my collection and see what I got.some where over 300+ getting em in order go from there. Hopefully a few that are worth $$_?. Thank you again. Keep those videos going and the records spinning 🎸
I think it’s important to not get caught up when collecting on the monetary value of the records, like for me my most “valuable” record has more sentimental value than what I could sell it for as it was a gift from my aunts partner who knew I was looking for this frank and walters album for ages , so he got onto his cousin who’s the bands drummer and got him to mail over a signed copy of the album to my door for Christmas, by far the vinyl related gift I’ve gotten.
Good Stuff Dillon!! To Me that's Why researching and Digging. Makes this is Such a great hobby.. Thanks for the Video...
Thanks Dan!
“Valuable” and “sought after” are totally different things. I bought so many vintage records in my 20s because I figured by my 40s, they would be way more valuable. The market so far highly disagrees 😂Some HAVE gone way up, but that’s 10 out of 300
historically going back, people did the same thing with Caruso 78s thinking after his death the would become valuable. 100 years after his death, you can still easily find mint copies of his records. I even have a book written in the 60s with lists of his 'rare 78s' and estimated values lmao. They are effectively worthless. Meanwhile as people were storing their Caruso records carefully, Blues 78s were getting thrown away.... many of those now are extremely rare and extremely valuable.
Don't get me wrong, I love finding pricey records but I'm all about the sound quality. My '68 VU&N with the banana sticker is cool but my '75 reissue (printed banana) is my favorite because it sounds glorious. Keep on rockin' Dillon.
I hear ya! Thanks!
Excellent information and an education in itself especially for those that think all vinyl records are worth big money, when they are not. I do understand the vinyl format has become somewhat collectable and many people think any album by Elvis, Beatles and many others are worth big money when they are not. Now don’t get me wrong but if its a nice clean original copy or sealed it can be worth some money, but not what people seem to think.
Wow, beautiful quality of the video. The camera is sure paying off!
- Chet Baker
Thank you! I’m trying!
Fantastic video Dylan
Everyone trying to sell their records needs to watch this video. I collect a lot of Beatles albums and there are so many that think the name "Beatles" alone means big money. Like you mentioned, they are one of the biggest selling acts of all time, therefore their records are pretty easy to find and generally not worth a fortune. Also, people that think their Mitch Miller albums are worth $50 each have no idea what records are going for😄.
Thanks mark!
I don't know much, but I might suggest a couple thoughts:
1-Don't judge a cover by its book.
There can easily be a gem of an LP in a dud of a cover. Either way, I have found The Eagles in a Dixieland cover . If you have the time, check the condition of each LP and check that they MATCH!
2- timing is everything. If Chris Slade died last week. You might check your B stock for an old copy of "The Firm" because sentiment drives purchases. And demand can swing on the twitch of a steering wheel in a rain storm.
-✌🏼
i have quite a few over sentimental reasons lol ,i hated fergal sharkey but bought the album resentally ,it reminded me of thatl
Great video Brother. I agree 💯 with You. I have been buying and selling and collecting vinyl records since 1984. Helped My Friend with His Record Shop. I know all the ends and outs of the Vinyl Record World. Thanks for sharing Brother 😀 👍 ♥️ 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🌎 🔊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉👏👏👏👏🎉🎉🎉💯
Thanks for watching! 🙏
I’ll easily drop money on an album I want. Just bought Zombies Odessey and Oracle UK mono because I love the album and will cherish it. I think of it as an investment
I’d drop money on that too!
I have a LOT of Brohms and Beethovan, Mozart's, Chopin, Joann Strauss' Tchaikovsky's, my mother-in- law left and others... several Conway and Loretta Lynn, "old" Christmas tunes... about to be moving soon! No time like now to sell......
The bulk of what I bought growing up was Punk, Ska, and the like. Just came across a very clean copy of Germs (GI). Not a first print, but very clean.
The only collector I have met who collected for covers, only wanted novelty covers. Records like Beegees odessa with the velvet sleeve, or the Donovan blank white coloring book album.
Pretty sure you're talking to me. Thanks Dylan. You are The Man.
Got The doors and Pink Floyd, hehe ,had the Black Sabbath on 8 track. Thanks
In over 50 years of collecting records I have NEVER sold a record. I’ve traded some on occasion, but most doubles or non-keepers I’ve given away to other collectors. I keep around 2,000 of my favorites, and cull out those rarely played to make room for new acquisitions.
Thanks for the video and tips.
I got a near mint moody blues at home and I know thats worth a lot
This is so true. Additional strong words or wisdom: Records are an interesting collectable at this moment in time, not a substitute or solution to a life time of poor financial decisions and bad career moves, period.
I used to buy a lot of records before 1989 and have about 30 feet. Most were bought new but I did buy used records that were no longer available. When buying used records I would shun the promos because they were from radio stations and were often worn out and beat up. Plus they have the awful sticker on front. I think promos should be worth the least.
Great video mate.
Thanks for watching! 🙏
Great informative video, is it true that a 1st pressing from a bands country of origin is usually the most desirable/valuable?
Mine aren’t worth anything since I don’t own any. Wakka wakka! Just got interested in vinyl and came across your videos. Love your content and now I can’t stop watching.
Thanks much!!!
Hiya, I have some albums that have never been opened, Buddy Holly's album when he had gotten killed, my cousin gave them too me when I lost everything I owned, after a hurricane. He gave me his collection, if you want.....I can show you some, if you want too.
9:20 It's worth stressing the difference between a promo edition/release and a promo copy. Many promotional copies are the exact same as the retail version, same label, same cover art etc., they just got a sticker or stamp on it. In typical cases these aren't worth more (probably even worth less for some). Different label (e.g. white label) or cover art: now that's probably worth more.
❤❤❤❤. I have several KEITH WHITLEY , they are staying with me , most are sealed 😊😊😊😊
Very cool!
Hello sir, hope you're having a good day.
Have you ever had a copy of Never Never Land, by The Pink Fairies in? wonderin' coz I dont see it very much and like it. (1971 I think)
I still have an unopened Doors An American Prayer album I got back in 71 ish..
Thank Dillion, good video. A touch of reality for us… 😬
😬🤷♂️
The only time I want to know what an album is worth is when I am buying or trading. An informed customer is a good customer.
Yes! Thanks for watching! 🙏
Excellent points and for me i dont care if there are some scuffs or scrateches as long as it plays. Cleaner the better but ehh. Ill take the cheap any day. As ill be playing the heck out of them anyway
Question Dylan - I have been trying to use Discogs BUT im finding it nearly impossible to tell the difference between my records and 1st pressings on things like Santana, Steely Dan, and various others I love from the 60's and 70's. Seems so many variations of the same dates, same ID numbers, same label, etc. What gives and how do I really know what the hell I have? I tried looking at the vinyl areas for clues, inserts, gates, etc. HELP
Just found your channel. Mine was the original Beatles. Ran into a Capitol record salesman. He was going through a divorce. I offered him $199 in 1970. He took it & I sold it in1997 for $2500.
The chair is back!!!!!
For now! We will see if she behaves
Hey so I recently bought a large record lot that came from somebody in the radio business back in the day. I found an AUDIODISC from a AM station in Chicago that recorded the Beatles interview when they played there (1964/65). Any idea what its possibly worth? I can't find anything else like it online. Thanks in advance!
Are Disney albums valuable? As a collection of two crates of every Disney production possible? Vintage kids albums as well?
I own one of the worst records ever made, it's also one of the most valuable lol. Beach Boys 1992 Korean only promo Summer in Paradise. I'm a completist and had to have it. I paid $50 about 15 years ago, and thought that was outrageous. Back in those days, vinyl was not worth big bucks. It's absolutely mint and though the music's cheesy, I cherish it. A couple sellers have listed it for 2 grand, but realistically it's worth $700ish
lol yeh its their worse record by far. its a candidate to be repressed... which will take the price down a good chunk. There is one other thing about the record that adds value, its the first record to be recorded using Pro Tools. That might not seem a collectible thing, but it really is. There are a bunch of people who collect recordings with technical historic importance. First CD, first CD single, first Digital recorded release etc. People have brought stuff like this to get framed and put in a home or professional studio. Pro tools is a milestone (for good or bad) in music production history.
What do you do when you can’t find your item online? I found an 8 track of Fever Tree, For Sale M 81013 and can’t match it lol
I have a rare Elvis Presley Moody Blue Black vinyl I have only seen 2 of them ever mine and another I should of bought. Also I have a rare Carpenters offering album. Any many more rare vinyl records
I paid $15 dollars for a stack of records and there was a copy 1959 Miles Davis Kind Of Blue LP, sold it for $300. Wish I hadn't but I didn't need it. Just nice to have.
I've been collecting for about 2 yrs maybe going on 3 now got lots of the more known bands been digging into the indy bands found lots of great rockers Like......Stay Cats/Russ Ballard/Toronto
What are some other Great good Indy bands? Down that ally way?
havent checked recently, but i believe that my most valuable record (according to discogs highest average) is "proud existence - the trail" which is funny, because its by a small band my great uncle used to be in (hes the guitarist on the album)!
I also have a pressing of a record (ACDC highway to hell) with a misprint on the cover. There was no data about price on discogs for that one, but I dont think thats worth a lot
@@TychoVan AC/DC misprints can be worth a lot. Esp if its an Oz press. I have a few of them, and the value keeps going up. There are collector sites for AC/DC and groups on facebook, ask around. Depends what the misprint, how visible and how many were printed. Generally if its an Australian pressing (the misprint) that adds a lot of value, as worldwide collectors value Oz pressings the most. If its a USA press and there are like 1000s of them, then it just a misprint and not esp rare. That is the type of factor, that tends to determine value in my experience.
I bought an album recently for $11 still sealed; on discogs it has 4 own, 2 want, never sold and none for sale, no uploads of it on youtube and no hits on soulseek. I'm just curious how to get a gauge of how many exist and what it might be worth. I did not buy it to try to flip it, it's just a rare album by an old school artist I like: Norman Luboff - Dream Time 1980.
In the 1970s I had a babysitter that often went to Bleeker Bob's in New York City and she'd bring me 45's as a gift. I have 8 Ramones 45's in their original sleeves and with the prices on them. I wonder what they are worth?
discogs, but careful to find the exact release that matches your 45s (matrix info etc), Popsike is another good place to look at sold prices. Having prices on them, is kinda neat, you don't get that often. I've seen records sell for a premium when they have the original sales receipt.
There was this great black gospel artist named Morgan Babb I discovered on RUclips. I discovered him on a RUclips channel literally called ThriftStoreVinyl. Loved what I heard and shared it with anyone willing to listen. I think that was a mistake, because I watched a copy of the album I was sharing with everyone go for $338. While rare, it used to go for under $50 before I opened my trap about it. Oops.
I have this Elvis record with blue vinyl I hear it's really valuable! 😆
What record is it ?
Moody Blue?
@@davidjunius991 It was a joke 😀 People come in to stores all the time thinking the blue colored one is rare
Hey Dillon, just placed an order in your shop, hopefully I can come visit the store sometime. I have a Neil Diamond live 72’ Hot August Night. On the first album is side 1 and 3 and on the second album is side 2 and 4. Weird. Is that normal?
It's more common than you think and was made when automatic players were common. Stevie Wonders songs in the key of life is pressed this way too.
Education is power!

it's worth money 💰 with that RVG stamp VG+
Also, TRADING is the best deal. Shop owners would rather trade than pay cash because it costs them less. Real life example: I brought in a crate of 35 records and got $350 in store credit. This means the owner is really paying probably $200 (before marking up for sale). Also, out of 35 records, probably 5 to 8 of them will make that $350 for the shop and the rest are "common".
The value of my collection is in the time I've spent going through crates and boxes over the last 40+ years..my collection isn't for sale so monterey value means very little to me...
I've been buying records for more than fifty years. I have no idea what they are worth, but my daughter will find out when I'm gone. I still have the first record in my collection, Let It Bleed,
Got a Toad selftitled with the frog on the front, heard it's worth something. I want to get rid of it
I keep buying 45 rpm classic records usally on clarity vinyl
Yes!
Wondering, how do you know what pressing you have if you have a sealed album? Would you open it just to see what pressing it is? Just curious. I like your video's lots of info, Thanks!
you can't always determine the pressing. If you are lucky, there might be high quality images on discogs that allow you to determine a pressing. Carefully looking at every part, the company names etc, alignment of text, image cropping. Really depends, who are you talking about. Certain artists have very detailed discographies to narrow down the search. The majority of artists a lot of what is online is guess work.
@@varsityathlete9927 Thank you
nice arty camera work on this one ;)
I’m trying new things to make them better for yall
Any value to antique records?
If you mean 78s, or even earlier. Basically no... BUT certain ones very much so. For 78s, basically Blues has value, rare original pressings, Charlie Patton and all those names. It's mostly down to the extreme rarity of certain artists and the blues collectors.
never underestimate the power of vinyl
NEVER
Hey Dillion I no you show us the grails and the good stuff what about like the commons like Jefferson airplane eric Clapton should that be stuff to hold on to sell ?
Those artists are what record stores need, they always sell. They are only 'investment' if they are like mint condition - effectively unplayed and the covers are absolutely beautifully new. That is mostly down to the rarity of such things. Otherwise they are just relatively common rock records. The other question is, will young people today want bands like Jefferson Airplane in 20+ years? I really don't know, I can tell you what teens buy from me right now - and its definitely not bands like that. Most people who go for JA are in their 50 and over - generally not a good sign for long term investment. Clapton sells, he made a lot good classic commercial rock. Some of those songs are standards now.
@@varsityathlete9927 thanks yea I been thinking about that like the Aerosmith Van Halen all that stuff those are easy sells just seems you really have to find the right people for the others
There's little more annoying than purchasing some expensive reissue to find that, after all the marketing blather about "audio fidelity" that they are then shipped with cardboard/card inner sleeves that are to records, what two days stubble are to a first kiss
I agree 🤣
I have a list of records can you help me find market
What do you think about reissues that are superior to the originals? Do my Music On Vinyl and Vinyl Me Please reissues have potential?
Yes! Lots of originals just sound ok. Many reissues sound better
are there any records in the MJ discography that even reach 20k in value? never mind thriller.
No
@@noblerecords debatable. there are a few extremely rare items that might.
there are a few picture discs with only a few known to exist, for various reasons they were never commercially produced.
I don't know if some of those have ever come up on the market. I would have thought MJ's value as peaked, although Thriller will sell for decades - its just such a solid album. His signed stuff comes up a lot, but how much of that is fake...
I buy a thousand titles a week too. And I don't have a shop!
The 'sad' cases are the old boys who use price guides from the 70's/80's. They think their 3000 vinyls are worth $30-50,000k, sometimes not even worth $100. Yes, don't throw away. I buy 1-5,000 at a time from a record store, for packaging mainly. Owner clueless about records, music. He often thinks one is trash and it's worth hundreds$$$$$$. (I don't tell him of course!)
“Sometimes gospel is worth money”
Let’s just be real here. If there’s SAMPLES on it, it’s worth money😂
Yeah pretty much
Most of my LP's are pre-rock so basically not worth much. Not looking for a fortune thought I might get a few bucks for a pile.
Yes but I don't care. Nothing leaving!
I only buy records to listen to them not oh it might be with money.. a collection of anything value is what someone is willing to pay for it
Anybody who ever wrote their name on an album cover should be condemned to hell.
🎯
He got a new camera?
I’ve actually had it a while, just started using it
discogs has taken on a life of its own. without discogs record prices would be much lower. For baseball card fans in the late 80s its like Beckett magazine. The price guide says its worth $X so that's what I am selling it for. Enough people are paying asking price so the trend continues. Eventually will fall

My records are worth Satoshis
There is one question I have that I am waiting for someone knowledgeable to answer; Back in the 1970s, the word was that people with original doo-wop and rockabilly singles and albums were sitting on thousands of dollars. But here we are in the 2020s, and some are charging that these records have sunk to minimal value and aren’t in demand anymore. And yet some still charge hundreds of dollars for these records. So which is it? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller???
It’s all over the place. It’s true that in the 1970’s, these records were quite valuable because demand was high in the days of American Graffiti and Happy Days. Much of that music had fallen out of print in the 60’s yet all of sudden was in demand again. Even as the reissues rolled out, the most dedicated collectors still sought out original pressings (easier said than done before eBay).
But 50 years later, the market has changed. Unfortunately, the buyers are literally dying off, and the younger collectors just don’t have interest. I’ve been enjoying buying affordable copies of stuff I would have never gotten cheap 20 years ago, but I can’t buy everything. More people my age need to get into rockabilly and Doo-Wop. It’s literally the root of everything great about music in the past 70 years.
Saying that, there are definitely still valuable releases. I watched an original pressing of “The Aquatones Sing” fetch $300 on eBay. Also, those ridiculously rare singles from rockabilly artists like Kenny Parchman and Lynn Pratt still fetch the low hundreds when they come up.
Who want to buy original 1970s LP vinyl record of "Jackson 5 Christmas Album & Neil Diamond "The Jazz Singer" ..Plz.feel free to reply, thanx!
All my Beatles are worth thousands; right?
Hahah depends on how many you have 🤣
Smart video title for the RUclips algorithm 🧠📲

Discogs is getting over run with inexperienced money grabbers. Same goes for most Record fairs too. Ebay has always been a buy with caution site. Sellers should learn the Goldmine grading system and be 100% honest. Especially with rare pricey Records. "I ain't got time for dat".
I made a typo I gave him $100.
Who wants Heino?
People bring that stupid Michael Jackson out of a man antique shop all the time thinking we're going to give him $100 for it..lol. There was a girl that used to come into the antique shop that would weren't covers only and a couple times we had empty covers I'd sell her for a buck or two bucks a piece she was decorating a wall with them..
