Cataloging vinyl collection with values
As others have said, you can enter them into discogs. Once you have, it will give you a range of what your collection is worth based on the condition that you enter. As far as other ideas than selling them wholesale, are there any local records sh... 
Cataloging vinyl collection with values

"a stylish and affordable launch into the world of high-performance audio"
