This is what I'll call a Special Interest (SPIN) Box, records that your Triangle Vinyl Guy thinks belong together.  The quality and collect-ability of the records range widely in these boxes, but you won't need to guess or hope: for every box I list all the records and rate the vinyl for you.  Sleeves are sometimes cardboard, but they are mostly very old paper, often enough in ragged shape--study the photos and ask me questions about them if you want.  They've all just been cleaned with a VPI wet-vac system.  And I'll pay the shipping via USPS Media Mail.
