Vinyl Records

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Many moons ago, I moved the USA and donated my vinyl record collection to my brother. Now he's thinking about moving, and wants to dump the collection - literally.

So, I'm curious how much vinyl is worth these days? Do people still collect, or is it very, very niche? Is it worth the effort of sifting through a few hundred records for a couple of gems, and putting them on Ebay? Obviously, I'm in the US and the records in the UK, so I'd have to convince my brother to do the work, and make it worth his while...

Anybody know a good site which lists the value of records?

Cheers for any info...
