Four Key Factors Determining the Resale Value of Alan Tam Vinyl Records
When appraising vinyl records,9Box Music will professionally evaluate the following details to ensure that every cherished collection receives fair market value:
- Complete Accessories (Sideband/Obi): Japanese or imported vinyl records that retain their original "obi" (paper strip) usually fetch a much higher resale price than records missing the obi.
- Lyric Booklet and Inserts: "HELLO! SOLITUDE" contains exquisite photo lyric pages. If they are well-preserved,flat,and free of moisture stains or foxing,they significantly increase the appraisal value.
- Disc Condition (Visual Grading): We carefully check for crackling sounds (noise),obvious scratches,or warping on the disc. Records that are as shiny as new have the greatest resale potential.
- Cover Condition: Whether the cover is split,if there are signatures or stamps from previous owners,and if the spine text is clear are all details valued by professional collectors.
