I hate to say but not worth much... the signed copy might if you are lucky fetch about 30 tops to some dedicated fan and the other two not much more than a tenner or so each...

Limited edition vinyl these days seems to represent market demand more so than a lucky few as it was in the past. Although time will tell, a limited edition tune now could be in big demand in a couple of years.

yep, unless you are a serious viny collector most stuff goes from cents to 5 maybe 10 euros.
Stuff that costs a lot is Beatles/stones, and for serious cash Northern soul (so much so, that even bootleg 7"'s go for 100's)
I loke 60's punk/garage, but even then you can shell out 80-100 for an original pressing for a record in OK condition, though the value doesnt go down, ,so it can be an investment

It's definitely a relatively recent change though in terms of vinyl prices coming down... obviously with people moving more towards digital the prices of vinyl have dropped big time. It's a good time for anyone still buying vinyl as I have found a lot of older/harder to get tunes have been that bit easier to get my hands on and for a lot less. Equally tunes I paid a lot for in the past aren't worth feck all now :pac:

Yeah you can get a lot of stuff on download now which is having an impact on value, its the same as cd's, go into hmv and pay €20 or go to itunes and download it for half the price(barring new releases), i recently bought two aphex twin albums/ep's for a toal of €14 on itunes, would of cost me €39 in tower records - do the math!

yeah but with vinyl you have a tangible object, your mp3 collection is only as good as your last backup, and without getting into a vinyl/digital debate, most mp3's are encoded to a standard that any audiophile would find appalling

I've not been "collecting" for long, about a year,
the best though is having developed an ear for audio quality,
all the mp3's i have, since i started caring are 320,
i never noticed before, but now its like comparing the sound from a tape cassette to that of a cd. nothing is even worth listening below 192!

thanks for the help and info.
