Antique Record Hunting For Del Boys

Antique vinyl 45s 33s and 78s can be found at record fayres, markets, auctions, car boot sales, charity shops, dedicated specialist record shops, garage sales, antique record and aunction sites, ebay, the Friday ads and a number of other tradesmens publications.

Occasionly a golden oldie that is rare, in good condition and very valuable can be found closer to home such as in your own attic/loft or that cupboard that has never been spring cleaned of "dear departed Aunt Aggie".

Sources of Antique Records

This is of course a subjective thing like many other things in life, so this front page index I decided on quality and rareness as the metrics. Further into the blog there is a re-arranged list with an explanation. They are arranged best to worst.

  • 11 - Family Heirloom - Attic/Loft/Cupboard
  • 10 - Collector' s Record Fayre
  • 09 - Antique' s auction
  • 08 - Specialist Rare Records Auction Site
  • 07 - Antique shop
  • 06 - Specialist Record Shop
  • 05 - E-bay or other general trading site
  • 04 - Friday Ad or Other Tradesmen' s Publications
  • 03 - Car Boot/Garage Sale
  • 02 - Charity Shop
  • 01 - Market

  • The family Heirloom is rated highest because although it requires considerable luck, the collector at least has first hand knowledge of its authencity and quality.
