Used record players in Wrexham typically sell for £40 to £220 (about $54 to $295). Record players sell on whether the stylus is usable and the speed is accurate, and buyers assume neither works until you say otherwise.
Selling a record player in Wrexham
Wrexham is the largest town in north Wales, with a university, a brewing history and a football club that became internationally known after being bought by two actors. It sits close to the English border with a large industrial estate that dates from the war.
The university clears student housing each summer, and the industrial estate brings contract households in and out. Cross-border commuting keeps people moving in both directions.
Nearly everything is within a short drive of the centre, so a buyer will usually come to you rather than haggle over meeting halfway. The football ground and the town centre are the landmarks everyone knows.
Wrexham, in Wales, has around 65,000 people, which means a small local market, which makes the nearby towns part of your audience rather than an afterthought. Cardiff, Swansea and Newport are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.

What record players are worth
What lifts the price
- A working motor running at correct, stable speed
- Belt-drive and direct-drive decks from respected makers
What pulls it down
- Perished drive belts causing slow or uneven speed
- Cracked or missing dust cover
Working out what yours is worth
- Run the platter and check the speed is steady
- Test both speeds and the tonearm return if fitted
Getting it ready
- Test both speeds with a strobe disc or a phone app, and confirm the platter turns evenly without wow.
- Check whether it has a built-in phono preamp, which decides what the buyer needs to connect it to.

- The rear panel showing outputs and any preamp switch
- The platter, belt or drive, plus any damage to the plinth or lid
Put in the description
- Whether it has a built-in phono preamp and USB output
- Speed accuracy, and whether the lid, mat and counterweight are present
Fragile. Secure or remove the platter and the counterweight before posting, and protect the tonearm and stylus separately — those are what arrive broken.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
