Professional Evaluation: Four Key Factors Affecting the Resale Price of Sam Hui's Old Records
When conducting vinyl record appraisal,we adhere to professional and transparent standards. Below are the core indicators that determine the market value of "Nian Nu Jiao" vinyl:
1. Media Condition:
- M (Mint): New,sealed or like new,no scratches,no surface noise during playback.
- NM (Near Mint): Very slight signs of use,perfect sheen.
- VG+ (Very Good Plus): Some light hairlines,but does not affect playback smoothness.
2. Sleeve Condition:
- Check for split seams,mildew,yellowing,or writing on the sleeve. For 80s records like Sam Hui's,the cleaner the sleeve is kept,the higher the value.
3. Pressing Version:
- First Press: First pressing from 1980,with clear differences in label design from later reissues.
- Limited Edition/White Label: If it's a white label promotional record from that era,it's considered a "holy grail" by collectors.

- Although "Nian Nu Jiao" sold exceptionally well back then,after more than 40 years,high-quality discs that remain "skip-free and with low surface noise" are becoming increasingly rare.
