Fuckin' love these threads

Time to create a "How to value records" sticky?

1) Wade through Discogs entries based on info on jacket and dead wax.

2) At least double what your local store would give you

3) Check sold listings on eBay, assuming you know enough about your version

4) See if it tastes like chocolate

5) Go elsewhere.

There should also be a cat gif between each answer.

Is "Sgt. Pepper" a band?  Never heard of 'em.

You were right, they were a band that traveled with the forever classic "D.A.R.E" campaign to schools and sang about healthy food, bad drugs and safe sex. Mostly known for there short lived hit single with Nancy Reagan on lead vocals called "Just Say NO!".

 

Then you have "Penny Lane" who is the clown from the classic horror movie and that is nothing more then a novelty album kind of like the one where Freddy rapped. Awesome cover art though!

 

Very interesting mix of albums to ask about but I would say to the right buyer you could probably get some solid monies for sure.

I've got 2 original unplayede picture discs, Sgt. Pepper and Penny lane. I have looked on ebay, but if anyone here knows the value please comment :)

Your 2 best tools are website Discogs & popsike. Remember condition is always key. Both look and sound are considered when you try to value vinyl.

 

Penny Lane: https://www.discogs.com/Beatles-Strawberry-Fields-Forever-Penny-Lane/release/6249151

If The Penny Lane is the 7" it looks like this link might be it. If it is $20 seems to be the fair market value on both websites. It is not that common.

 

Sgt. Pepper:  https://www.discogs.com/search/?q=beatles+pepper+picture&=&type=all

There have been several pressings of the Sgt Pepper album in Pic disc format. Look for specific numbers etched into the inner rim or printed on the record to identify the correct one. The average would most likely be in the $20-$25 range but once again condition is key.

 

Now the prices above are the estimated "value". They are truly worth whatever someone pays for them. eBay would be your best bet and you would most likely get somewhere between $5-$25 each.

 

Hope that helps
