Collector's Tip: How to increase the buyback price of "Morning After".

If you plan to sell your Sam Hui English album vinyl,the following suggestions can help you get a higher buyback estimate:

  • Keep it dry: Mildew on the cover will significantly reduce its value,so it's recommended to store it in a well-ventilated and dry place.
  • Original accessories: If you have original posters,lyric sheets,or record store receipts from that year,please keep them together,as these are a big bonus for collectors.
  • Replace inner sleeves: It's recommended to use anti-static rounded inner sleeves to prevent paper debris from original paper sleeves from scratching the record surface.
