Vinyl - who decides on its value?

How do records end up with their price tag when it comes to old/vintage/ collectible vinyl (such as the entries on popsike.com)? Who decides and what criteria is used to establish a price?

 

The marketplace?
It's worth what people are willing to pay.

Rarity, condition and reputation, I guess.

 

Supply, meet demand.

 

The Bilderberg group.

 

that's it.

 

Try selling it for the highest price possible. When it doesn't sell, bring the price down a TOUCH. Once a few sellers get an average, BAM, there's your price.

 

I can HONESTLY say, I'm more curious about who decides the value of NEW vinyl.

In Canada a single new record can go from $19.99 to $35 regardless of the artist or the quantity of the pressing being done.

 

Think a lot of it depends on how many fingers are in the pie.

Label's price -> distribution price -> retail price. I've heard that distribution companies have a huge influence on the price that the label can charge them, because without a deal with them you cannot sell. One well-know distributor has told a friend that they will now charge him storage for the albums of his they take from him. But I presume all label's try to go for an end-retail price and then things work backwards from there.

 

I decide.

 

Thank you!

 

The buyers decide what it sells for.

Unfortunately, there are an inordinate number of Comic Book Store Guys setting the initial prices.

 

Hello SH community
I have a sealed copy of George Harrison’s All things must pass. It has the apple sticker on the seal. Is there a way to know what it’s worth (considering I haven’t broken the seal to look at the records, etc)? I’ll post pictures!

It's worth whatever somebody will pay you for it.

Most likely between 350 and $500
