Graded vinyl now sells at auction ~12x as often as in 2024.
But which pressing you own matters more than the artist, the year or the grade. A UK Led Zeppelin I sold for $13,420. A US copy with a Gold Award sticker: $458.

Simple Cover. Cool auto. Beautiful case to preserve and authenticate it. @VMGvinyl @BosCardHunter @darrenrovell @Will__Stern @WatchTheBreaks @BusterScher

We didn't replace Goldmine. We made it more precise. 📀
Our numerical scale describes condition more accurately, the Goldmine grade still sits right below ours on every label, and not everything ends up a VG+.

Just added a sealed piece of movie history to the collection! 🎶🔥
The Sound of Music original soundtrack on RCA Victor — a 1965–68 mono pressing, graded 8.0 by @VMGvinyl, still sporting its $4.37 J. M. Fields price sticker. 🤯
The film won five Oscars, including Best Picture, and gave generations songs like “Do-Re-Mi” and “My Favorite Things.”
A soundtrack meant to be played and enjoyed, preserved unopened for nearly 60 years. That’s what makes this copy so special. 💙
Which submissions were hottest in September? These numbers are compared to what we typically have in the office at any given time, and I think collectors might be onto a real trend. #submissions #collectors
For the '90s grunge & alternative crowd: "Kind of Grunge" from @musoraofficial is a jazz album you can really sink your teeth into. 🎷🎸
Modern jazz vibes, melodies we all know.
The first pressing sold out — but the waitlist for the second is open 👇
