I have old 78 records. How do I find out if they are worth any money?

I live in the country, and don't have access to 'experts' that can value things, and probably couldn't afford one anyways. I always look on ebay, to see if an item is for sale there, to get a starting value on anything. If I don't find it there, then I search for it online. That usually helps. You can usually find someone, or some site that is selling something similar.
Looking on Ebay has helped me find the value of things. But, remember, anybody can price an item for sale at their price, it doesn't mean it's worth that. Instead of looking at active auctions, look at the items that have been Sold. Then you will know what people will actually pay.
Search "old vinyl records prices" and you'll find websites that appraise records. Moneymusic.com is just one. Most have some free info. Also, you might check with your public library to see if they can get you a copy of a good price guide on loan.
I didn't sell the vinyls instead I painted on them and made them into beautiful clocks. You can purchase the clock works at craft stores and they are very easy to assemble.
