Question
Hi Bill, Could you give us a value some acdc vinyls Ive got please. The first one is a signed High Voltage vinyl. The date of signature is pre Simon Wright with Phils' signature on with the rest of the band, unfortunately not with Bon though but with Brian. I also have a Limited Edition 21" interview picture disc with a picture of the band with Mark Evans, and the reverse is Brain Johnson, the album is at least 20 years old but in mint condition, album number BAK 2030. I also have 7" vinyl of Highway To Hell, Touch Too Much, Its A Long Way To The Top, Girls Got Rhythm, Sin City and You Shook Me All night Long. I have also got a vinyl album of Bon when he was with The Valentines, and the rest of DC's album vinyls including TNT.
Thanks Linda  

Answer
Hello Linda,

Thank you for your question. The fully signed "High Voltage" album would probably be valued in the range of $125-200USD.
The 12" interview picture disc is valued at around $30-40USD depending on the condition.
The rest of the vinyls I would need more accurate information (country of release, catalog #, condition) in order to give any value to those items.

Best Regards,

Bill
