	£		57
	$		76

Selling-up my large record collection, amassed over 50 years. There are new listings every week. Do have a look at my other items - I may have something that you didn't even know you wanted!
Looking at the last 12 albums in my Beach Boys collection, I have split them into two auction lots (to take advantage of cheap postage for parcels under 2 kilos).These are generally from the second half of the sixties. UK issue, unless I say different below. Condition is mixed, see below.
Pictures are my own photos of the items for sale. Photos are part of the description, have a good look.
Wild Honey - 1968 stereo
Cover - is that Tiffany stained-glass? Front-laminated with 3 flip-backs. Front is very nice, has a little crease top right corner, and a stain by the spine top right. Back is good with usual discolouration from handling, and a bit of something on the spine-side flip-back. 
Record - looks good - side one looks excellent, just some tiny scratches at the very end of the last track.  Side two - just a lightest-kind-of scratch and a fingernail mark on track 1. 
Beach Boys Love You - 1977
Cover - is very good, just some little losses / wear around the edges. A card insert, also very good.
Record - both sides look in excellent condition.
20-20 - 1969
Cover - is gatefold, laminated on the outside. Nice condition.
Record - side one looks in excellent condition. Side two - has just a very short fingernail mark along the grooves at the start of track 3.
Friends - 1968 mono.
Cover - front-laminated with 3 flip-backs. Rather worn, has some creases. Previous owner's name top left on back, and something has happened on bottom edge flip-back. Small bumps / wear at top and bottom of opening.
Record - side one has a scratch on track 1 going into track 2. A little group of scratches on track 2. Some other light scratches and streaky marks along the grooves. Side two - has a light scratch on last track, a small scratch on track 5, and a scratch on track 3 going into track 4. Some other very light scratches.
Smiley Smile - 1967 mono.
Cover - is front-laminated with 3 flip-backs. front still shiny, some ring-wear, and rather large scallop creases. Back is intact but rather stained, grubby finger-marks?
Record - Both sides are covered in light scratches and scuffs and marks, plus heavier scratches - rough. Probably still worth giving it a spin to see what happens - records of this vintage often play well despite nasty-looking damage.  
Sunflower - 1970 
Cover - is gatefold, laminated on the outside. Intact, quite good. Front has creases to two corners, and some small scallop creases. Back has light ring-wear, small scallop creases, and a couple of creases to the corners.
Record - side one has a light scratch running from track 4 to track 6. A very light scratch on tracks 3 and 4. A heavy long fingernail impact on track 2 , 3 and 4. Some other light scratches and marks. Side two - looks good - has a fingernail mark on track 3, and a light mark on track 1.
When I'm checking for damage on records, I look at them carefully with my reading glasses on, in good daylight. This method detects any bits of damage that will affect what you hear when listening to it - and lots that are not audible. Using a spotlight or direct sunlight shows more surfacey marks sometimes, but I don't do that - records are for listening to, not trying to see your face in.
Postage at cost within UK - £3.20 plus 50p for a proper record mailer with two stiffener sheets of cardboard (or whatever's appropriate). Happy to do combined postage wherever practical. I'll charge you what it costs me - so anything up to six (or so) LPs would still be the same charge, £3.70. One can send up to 2 kilos for £3.20. For UK buyers - if you buy several items on the same day, and you're looking for combined postage, don't pay, and message me to ask for an invoice that includes combined postage.
Dispatch will usually be "next day", if you pay promptly. My auctions end on Sundays, and I post on Monday afternoon. I only go out to post once a week, during the present pandemic, so if I receive payment after 14.00 Monday, parcel goes into the next Monday's posting.  Collection in person is usually welcome, but not when there are lockdown rules in effect, which forbid it.
I'm happy to send this overseas. See below for details, if bidding from outside UK - YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS STUFF.
I don't mail things personally, to countries outside the UK - ( I mean it, don't ask) - but I am happy to use E-Bay UK's Global Shipping Program, for sending things abroad. Under this scheme, I send the parcel to an e-bay depot in UK, and they forward it to the overseas buyer. They have a tracked courier service, for the journey from their UK depot, to the buyer. This means that I can ONLY accept payments through e-bay (Pay Now button), and I can't send invoices.
Please be sure that you understand what the postal charges will be, before bidding. 
E-Bay UK tells me, they do NOT do combined postage in the Global Shipping Programme. Charges to the customer for delivery and customs charges are whatever you're told they are - if you don't want to pay the postal / courier charges individually for the items, then do not bid. 
Overseas customers - please DON'T request an invoice - I can't make one, and it screws-up the e-bay system.
International buyers should be able to see a postage cost to their country, you may have to input your location, if your country is included in the scheme. If your country is not mentioned, please do not bid. International postage to the following countries will be shown (this is the latest list that I've seen - lotta countries!) Antigua and Barbuda, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Republic of, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Australia, United States, Bahrain, Canada, New Zealand, Israel, Hong Kong, Norway, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore, Korea, South, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand, Bangladesh, Belize, Bermuda, Barbados, Brunei Darussalam, Cayman Islands, Dominica, Egypt, Guernsey, Gibraltar, Guadeloupe, Grenada, French Guiana, Iceland, Jersey, Jordan, Cambodia, Saint Kitts-Nevis, Saint Lucia, Liechtenstein, Sri Lanka, Macau, Monaco, Maldives, Montserrat, Martinique, Oman, Pakistan, Reunion, Turks and Caicos Islands, Aruba, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, United Arab Emirates, Ukraine, Chile, Bahamas, Colombia, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Guatemala, Honduras, Jamaica, Kuwait, Panama, Qatar, El Salvador, Trinidad and Tobago, Uruguay
Applicable customs charges will be shown to buyers - E-Bay collects customs duty for the receiving country, wherever import duty is appropriate. If you don't want to pay the customs charges, do not bid. Since "Brexit", customs charges are likely between UK and EU countries.
I don't send to China (because I prefer not to), and I also don't send to Japan, Brazil, Ecuador and Peru, as importation of vinyl records is not permitted in their customs regulations.
