This is because a demo or promo record will normally not come with artwork or sleeves which is where a good part of the value lies for most collectors.
Are vinyl demo records more valuable.
Columbia switched to a 2 eye label in 1961 making the former versions more valuable.
A lot of albums sold in the 1970s and early 1980s sold millions of copies when new and as such it isn t difficult to find copies in nice.
Next time you go crate diggin keep a keen eye out for any of these records.
And therefore i assume less promo copies are made than the official release records.
Brought back from the verge of extinction vinyl record sales are booming due to a renewed interest among younger generations.
This factor is pretty straightforward when it comes to vinyl records value.
I would then think that because less promo copies exist they are worth more than the official release version.
As a general rule the rarer the record more valuable it is you may have some treasure buried in your garage.
I came into possesion of lots of vinyl marked promo or demo on the cover sometimes it has a saw cut or a bullit hole sometimes not sometimes it s a white label and says it sometimes it s a regular label with no notifications do these vinyls have less value or more are they looked upon in a certain way can somebody give me a history lesson or some facts about them much appreciated.
