I always offer to copy them for the sellers if they'd like.  Usually they
have no way to play them any longer.

It was great that you brought them back.  At estate sales when I find
these I usually ask if a family member is around to talk with them about
what they might be getting rid of.  They're fun to listen to but really do
belong with the family if they want it.  I'm surprised the number of times
people could care less.  But then sometimes they are ecstatic to know about
it.  One time they started screaming happily about "that's the lost
recording of ..."  
 
Cheers,
Glenn

I was flabbergasted when I first heard this. I was certain it was too ruined
to record, but there was enough to make it important.  This came in a box
full of home recordings accompanying a Recordio console I bought from a
couple at an estate sale here in Portland.  I recorded about 40 of these old
home records and took them back to the folks I bought it from.  Turns out
these were recorded by the wife's parents before she was born and covered
about a 10 year period from 1941 to 1952, including the birth announcement
of her older sister.   She was very happy to get them, she had no idea what
was on the records.
