Guide to selling classical records

Here at Watson records we're always looking to purchase new record collections or single vinyl records but we've found that many collectors are unsure whether their classical records are valuable or not. So we have compiled our record collectors' guide to vinyl records.

As you may know, every artist is signed to a record label which in turn releases his/her records. A record's value depends on a number of factors like: record label, artist, year of release, rarity, quality of sound, etc. Below we have a list of the most well-known classical record labels. We dedicate a page to each of the most important classical record labels where we offer information about their history, the types of classical records released under the label, their rarity, which types are worth most and which types we are particularly interested in.
