Bluebook value of records


is there a site where i can find out what i should pay for record? is there some rating system that takes into account the condition and price that one would pay for record (fill in the blank). thanks

The bible, so to speak, is the Goldmine Record Album Price Guide. It lists over 65,000 LPs, with prices based on condition. Be aware that these are "book" values. Whether you pay book value depends on where you are buying. Specialist dealers can command book value, but the Salvation Army second-hand store cannot. That's because the specialist dealer has already screened out the junk, and markets to serious collectors.
There is no such animal that I am aware of. There are price guides that give values based on condition, but I put very little value in their pricing.

You might find this site informative for top prices paid, but that will be dependent on which genre of music that interests you.
