Records that sold well and are quite common are going to be less valuable than records that sold poorly or are hard to find.
Are vinyl demo records more valuable.
And therefore i assume less promo copies are made than the official release records.
This is because a demo or promo record will normally not come with artwork or sleeves which is where a good part of the value lies for most collectors.
I m talking about records from the 50s to 80s btw not sure if it matters.
Some rare demo records can be worth a good amount of money but normally demo and promo records are worth the same or less than a normal record.
A lot of albums sold in the 1970s and early 1980s sold millions of copies when new and as such it isn t difficult to find copies in nice.
Columbia switched to a 2 eye label in 1961 making the former versions more valuable.
As a general rule the rarer the record more valuable it is you may have some treasure buried in your garage.
I came into possesion of lots of vinyl marked promo or demo on the cover sometimes it has a saw cut or a bullit hole sometimes not sometimes it s a white label and says it sometimes it s a regular label with no notifications do these vinyls have less value or more are they looked upon in a certain way can somebody give me a history lesson or some facts about them much appreciated.
Valuable vinyl records you might have at home lovemoney staff 12 17 2018.
I would then think that because less promo copies exist they are worth more than the official release version.
