Nuttinbtr2do asked:

My husband has a collection of vinyl records that he will not part with. We limited space for these and they are getting in the way. They are currently in orange crates rearranged as best as I can . . . but the collection keeps growing and I can look at the crates no longer. I want to get him shelves to put them in but I want them to look nice and modern at the same time. Where should I look? And I tried ebay they didn’t ahve anything like I want. Oh and I’m not rich so I can’t spend that much money.

Where can I find? asked:

Dear Gelissa,

My mother has hundreds of vinyl (well, not really sure what you call them) 33″ records and they have horrible water damage. They have mold all over them, and I was wondering if water damages it permanently? Can I put something on them to remove the mold?

Thanks, Love GElissao.

Glyn asked:

Hi.
I just bought some 7″ records off eBay, but they have arrived stinking of smoke! I’ve had a look at different ways to remove smoke smells from different things, but not vinyl records. Does anybody know what I can do to get rid of it. it’s not too strong, but it still smells and i hate it!

Hope you can all help me, thanks a lot =D
Glyn
Also, how do i remove smoke from the sleeves. Will soap and water be ok, or will it damage them? I’m thinking it will be ok.

What to do with all these vinyl records?

February 8th, 2010 by admin


♥loved♥ asked:

I just recently inherited a couple hundred vinyl records and a record player. Some of them are in sleeves, some not. What is the best way to store these records where I can easily access them when I want to listen to them? I don’t want them to get damaged but I don’t want to just box them up and put them in the attic either. I’d like to actually use them.

Well last year I moved into this house, and I found 2 crates of old vinyl records. Right now I’m low on money and I want to sell the records to a record store or something but I don’t know their worth or value or anything. I really don’t want to get ripped off. Does anyone know how I can find out how much each record is worth, or where I could sell it?
