5.0 out of 5 stars Good Guide for British Records
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2024

Great guide if you collect British records. Unfortunately, I wanted a guide that covered US releases, so this guide is of minimal assistance for me. I own few British pressings.

I’m not positive that I would use this as a guide to sell your vinyl more of a way to value your collection

It was a good book except I didn't want to bother with converting the valuations to dollars. The description didn't indicate that detail.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 15, 2023
Verified Purchase
I would not buy any other price guide, I used to think oh I've got that Beatles lp but this guide helps you to understand things eg. Issue one and Issue four all have the same no. Please please me, came out in two different formats mono, and stereo for a very short time hence the stereo first issue is worth a lot of money.
