About this record
Hungaroton's SLPX 12461 pairs Bach's Suite in E Minor BWV 996 and Suite in C Minor BWV 997 with Three Chorales, all performed by Sárközy Gergely. Released in Hungary in 1985, it carries a catalogue number that is the one thing a buyer can check without opening the sleeve.
Demand for it is steady: 84 collectors list it as owned and 17 list it as wanted, so clean copies do not sit long on the market.
What drives its value
The price guide puts this LP from Mint at 20.87 USD down to VG at 9.88 USD, with VG+ at 14.28 USD and NM at 18.67 USD. Those endpoints, from 20.87 down to 9.88, show how far condition moves the figure on a 1985 Hungarian pressing.
At the time of the guide, 23 copies were for sale, and the lowest asking price was 6.00 USD, so a buyer has a real choice of supply. The community data gives 84 owners against 17 wanters, a ratio that favours sellers of good copies.
The input lists no other pressings, so there is no original-versus-reissue comparison to draw from this record; value rests on country of issue, label and grade.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm the pressing by reading the catalogue number SLPX 12461 on the spine, sleeve and label, and check that it matches Hungaroton as the label. The input gives no dead-wax matrix string or pressing plant, so do not treat any runout code as verified unless you can read it on the disc itself and compare it with a trusted reference.
Check that the sleeve and disc both list the three works: the two suites and the Three Chorales across 14 tracks, since this is the release's full track count. Grade the vinyl by playing it under good light and listening through the full Suite in E Minor, then grade the sleeve separately.
Use the price guide grades (M, NM, VG+, VG, and below) to set your offer against the lowest price of 6.00 USD.
