***************************************
Bundle of 104 H.M.V. 45s 1953-1967  All listed below in detail. (Lot includes 5 foreign issues.) Please note that some of these sleeves are selling for £1 each, the old yellow ones generally.        All Very Good / Excellent unless otherwise stated. Please see photos. None in picture sleeves (but for one exception).      Nobody walks up or down the stairs in our house!           Please note 50 discs weigh more than 2 kg., so will be sent in 3 or 4 packages but Ebay buffoons set a too low limit (£9.50) on items in this category. And whatever the selling price, Ebay fees will take a large bite and what they don't take, the post office will swallow up. (Collection welcome from Liskeard in Cornwall.)             Condition: All Very Good or Excellent unless otherwise stated. (Please disregard condition grades in Item Specifics! *) (Ebay Item Specifics do not allow ''Made In England'' or ''Made in Gt. Britain''.) * (Please refer to my notes about condition grades, further below.)            If anyone wants to "cherry-pick," please go ahead and make me a suitable offer.                If you have a shop you can very likely make a profit on some of my bundles.

(50 discs weigh more than 2 kg. even without packaging.)       Payment by PayPal preferred but not in the case of local collection.                      * I disagree with Ebay's - and Goldmine's and Record Collector's - definitions of condition grades for records.  It is about time true definitions were settled.  I shall set out my own here : Excellent means excellent.  Nothing to take away the delight of receiving and playing the record. (I rarely use this grade as it is difficult to guarantee 100%.) Very Good means very good.  Light surface marks are allowable provided they do not interrupt listening pleasure.  Anything less cannot be called very good. Good really means good (as opposed to those other definitions!).  Surface scratches are allowable provided they do not cause unpleasant listening experience. Fairly Good is acceptable on the understanding that this is an item that has suffered over time from carelessness but still should be playable with no hangups. (I have received so many items labelled Ex-, vg++ and suchlike which I would grade as 'Fairly Good', if that.  I am equally strict with grading my own collection.)        (And what the hell is this "Inlay" that Ebay insists on?)                   ***************************************
