Vinyl record values

What drives a record's value

• Pressing and edition — first pressings, limited runs and country variants vary hugely.
• Condition — the vinyl and the sleeve are graded separately (Mint down to Poor). A NM copy can be worth many times a G copy.
• Demand — reissues suppress prices; cult titles spike them.
• Completeness — original inner sleeve, insert and hype sticker all add value.

The best short-cut: check the exact release on Discogs (matrix numbers identify the pressing) and compare live asking prices in the same condition.
