Hahaha, nice one

So, you have the white Demo then Sebastian? Cool. Like I said, never knew of, or seen a Demo of this before.

Never seen, or heard of, a white Demo.

A Demo, or a booted copy?

Can't make that. But is that being organised by Adey Pierce?

I do have trusted friends to do it for me if I were to ask but to be honest, I'd rather do it myself . . . . . in fact, I've just made a start, this morning. God help me!!!

It does. Thanks.

If you had to ask that question then you would never understand the explanation.

Thanks Frankie. Does that go for ISAs etc as well, re avoiding inheritance tax?

Thanks for the offer Dave but I'm not selling them, just asking how I can 'very roughly' value them for the sake of my Will, which I've finally found time to write. However, to answer your question; 60% British, 40% American imports. Good collection of British, including a large selection of Twisted Wheel originals, all the first 100 TMGs, every black Chess, lots of Stateside, London, Liberty, Columbia, Parlophone, Vocalion, HMV, UA, CBS, etc, etc, many Demos amidst them all. Plenty of rare R&B and a few rare Northern. Also includes about 400 British labelled Lps from the 60s. I don't suppose the figure for my Will needs to be that accurate. Does it? That accuracy will come to matter if and when I ever made an insurance claim on them. Fingers crossed I never do. I haven't got time to go through them all, 70% of them are at my Mum's house, and condition would have to be considered, although most are excellent. Does any of this help towards a rough estimate?

Hee hee, you little tinker penny

I know SoulStu but I need a figure quick and I haven't got time to do it the hard way. I've always meant to do the valuation properly but it's like everyone else, haven't got time. I guess I'll have to wait until I retire to have the time to do it.

Okay? Interesting responses. Keep them coming please. Obviously, I agree that to get an accurate average, you'd have to do what Bearsy said. I was just wondering what other people thought. A consensus of opinion if you like.

If you had say 10,000 Soul / Northern Soul / R&B / records, of a widely varying value, what would you very roughly value the total collection at? For example, would you average out the value of each record at say £10, making the collection valued at £100,000? What average value would you use per record?

Okay. I've been trying to find it on a 45, no matter what country, for some years now. I've even tried tracking down an acetate but with no luck. I have the UK release of the "Generally Speaking" so I can't complain.

That's the Lp I was on about. Just forgot the name of the Lp for a moment and couldn't check as I was going out.

Still looking
