 | debz1966 Member since May 2023 3 Points | Hi new to this. I have found approximately 50 78rpm records. I am not sure what to do with them. Don’t want to throw them would rather they went to a collector. I don’t really fancy posting them all out separately. I am not sure if any are worth anything . They are a little dirty and dusty but do have sleeves on them. Should I do a list and post on here ??? Any help appreciated thanks in advance List is now on in reply’s to this post Edited by debz1966 on 31st May 2023, 4:53 PM |

It seems a collection of largely run-of-the-mill post-war pre-rock music. The Lita Roza 78 was historically known as the hardest UK #1 hit to find, but maybe that’s less the case with eBay etc. |

| Pridesale Member since Mar 2013 805 Points | If The OP could put a location in their profile and COS wave a fistful of fivers I think those ones picked are indeed of a interest/value and listing them like that has certainly saved a plough through the chazza or other listings. The others too nice to dump, too common (or tracks on CD / LP or 45 so the music has less value, and too heavy to store for the next family member to get lumbered with them. The Ted Heath ones maybe still have a niche of dedicated 78 format fans. I just checked "my collection" values and It seems worlds defaults to a NM value often based on a VG value input, which has given some of my discs rather improbable value - I'm sure Jimmy Young discs are not worth THAT much. |

| Pridesale Member since Mar 2013 805 Points | I can never figure out on Discogs if x number of people want a disc, and there are x or less on sale, how come all have not sold ? (OK one may be funds limited) . Sometimes the want is for the music , not the disc itself, but it does give a rough idea what kind of things people find of interest. I assume in these nice summer evenings Sidney might have a small drive along the M62, and Blackpool in the evening gets the sun on the prom , rather than Scarborough ! |

 | xiphophilos Member since Dec 2013 3351 Points Moderator | In some cases, I mark a disc as WANT to remind myself to keep a lookout for it, although I have no intention of paying anything like the collectors' prices demanded on Discogs or the fantasy prices on Ebay. I don't NEED any particular record. I'm just happy when I run across one that I like at a garage sale, estate sale, or in a thrift store. In other cases, I also use Discogs' and 78world's Want tag to mark entries that I feel I might be able to improve. Unfortunately, there is no other way of marking them. Hopefully, I don't mess up the actual indication of demand in a major way, though. ;-) |

| debz1966 Member since May 2023 3 Points | Hi if any collector near Preston Lancashire wants these 100 or so 78s for free please let me know. I haven’t got the time to list them on a selling site and would rather they went to someone who might want them or have the time to sell them to make a few quid. I really don’t want to throw them in land fill . |
