Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon album cover.

Put it in the Paper recycling bin.

If it has the plastic disc inside, you can make it into a plant pit.

[Prudie]

There's a lot of old ones on ebay between £10 and £20. Better to keep it surely.

[bobbinwales]

depends on condition too. If its been played load's and stored badly since 1973 it might not be worth much if the vinyls scratched

[Sunk]

POT duh.

[Buenchico]

Prices for the original version seem to start from £27 upwards on eBay:

With over 45 million copies sold and one of the best selling albums of all time there must be a lot of them about.

[JimF]

Vinyl isn't nearly as valuable as people seem to imagine, but its value is a direct correlation between its condition and its rarity.

This is one of the biggest selling albums of all time - unless it's in absolute mint condition, you'll be lucky to get a couple of quid for it.

It's an original which my uncle bought when it first came out - says 1973 on the inside cover. I'm not going to get rid of it but just wanted to know the value.

[JimF]

Also, the value will increase slightly if it still has its original posters and their condition.

[JimF]

They all say 1973 - that's the year of its release.

[Sunk]

Dark side of the moon has sold 45 million units. So it is unlikely you have a copy of one that is worth anything.

[tiggerblue10]

Just found the poster inside.

Mr B has a Floyd t shirt like this

[JimF]

That's one of them. The original releases also came with a dark blue poster of the pyramids.

[tiggerblue10]

That would've been good to have Jim. Sadly its not inside the cover.

[Sunk]

Even if it is a first edition 47 year old copy, they sold millions of them, so it is unlikely to be rare, or worth anything.

[tiggerblue10]

I was only aware of PF when they released Another Brick in the Wall. This was when I was a kid. The rest of the albums before that, I started listening to a lot later on in my 20s. My fave is Great Gig in the Sky.

[tiggerblue10]

[bobbinwales]
