thanks 🙂

frozenraven39 said:Look, I'm no expert here, but it looks like you've got a bunch of old 78 RPM records—mostly opera and stuff like that. I'm not even sure if they're all a hundred years old (Rob: [pauses] "Is that Peter fucking Frampton?") 🙂

The market for this kind of thing isn't exactly huge. If you actually want to see any decent money, your best bet is probably just dumping everything on eBay and waiting patiently for one of those niche collectors to stumble upon them (http://www.ebay.ca/itm/RUFFO-ISCHIER...item484c9ab1de)
If you try selling the whole collection to a local antique shop, don't expect much. You'll likely get pennies.

Thanks for the reply. 🙂
I realized later on that they aren't all a century old either. 😁
Can you give me an idea of what these kinds of records usually go for? I'm totally lost. I could list them on eBay, but I have no clue what prices to set. 🤷

Hey, can anyone give me an appraisal on these records? I’ve got an old gramophone from 1907, and these were played on it—so we’re looking at stuff that’s at least 105 years old.

I wasn't sure exactly what details you'd need from the labels, so I'll list what I think matters. Feel free to grill me if you need more info:
