Selling Your Vinyl and CDs

Have you got a few records or CDs that you’re looking to part ways with? One of the best parts of this job is interacting with people daily about all things music. After operating for over 55 years, we have built a strong reputation when it comes to buying your old records and CDs! We understand that there are many reasons why people sell their collections, whether it's due to storage issues, downsizing, changing formats, or circumstances like illness and bereavement.

If you are looking to sell some vinyl or CDs, please give us a call on 02920 377355 or, if possible, email us a list of the collection at info@kellysrecords.com. We will get back to you as soon as possible with further details on proceeding. For smaller collections, feel free to drop them directly into our store where we can check the condition, variant, and offer you a price on the spot. For larger collections, we highly recommend contacting us beforehand so we can arrange a visit to your home to collect the items. The price of second-hand vinyl and CDs can vary widely, so we insist on physically inspecting the collection before offering a price.

Genres and Eras of Interest

Whilst we will consider a varied range of music, there are some particular genres and eras that we’re especially interested in. Any collections from the mid-50s onwards can be interesting, particularly if they include genres such as Funk & Soul, Jazz, Blues, Progressive, Alternative, Metal, Punk, and Reggae. Records from the 80s onwards have become more sought after in recent times. We are always on the lookout for Indie, New Wave, Alternative, and Hip Hop. Additionally, we do buy classical records, although we are a bit more selective. Early stereo pressings on labels like Columbia (SAX), Decca (SXL), HMV (ASD), and Deutsche Grammophon (Large Tulip) are of particular interest.

How to Proceed

For smaller collections, visiting our store directly is the best option. We can inspect your records or CDs on the spot and offer you a price immediately. For larger collections, please get in touch with us first. We can then arrange a convenient time to visit your home and evaluate the collection. The value of second-hand vinyl and CDs varies greatly depending on factors like condition and rarity, so a physical inspection is necessary for an accurate valuation.
