Selling-up my large record collection. These are American records, collections of tracks from UK singles in the 1960s. These albums were released in the early 1990s. Each has sleeve-notes on back cover, telling you about each of the tracks. Condition of these is very good to excellent, having some surface marks, paper-scuffs, but still likely to play very well indeed.  When I say "scuffs" - the records are clean, so a "scuff" is basically a bunch of parallel light / very light scratches to the surface of the record. Usually not a problem when listening to the record, if they're light / paper scuffs. 
In doing the photos for this listing, instead of picturing the whole back of the sleeve, I have zoomed-in on the tracklist, so you can (probably) read artists and song titles.
Pictures are my own photos of the items for sale. Photos are part of the description, have a good look.
A good value bundle - these always go for more than a fiver each.
Volume One - 
Cover - is very good - nice original glossy sheen - just very slightly shows the shape of the record, tiny bumps on corners.
Record - Generally excellent - side one has a tiny impact on track 1 - probably from stylus dropping - not particularly hard - on it. Two or more big paper scuffs. Side two looks in excellent condition. 
Volume 2 - 
Cover - very like vol 1, but with an abrasion taking surface off, around the base of the big "T", near opening on the front.
Record - side one looks in excellent condition.  Side two has two little marks - flat impacts - one at the end of track 1, one at start of track 2.
Volume 4 - 
Cover - Good like 1 and 2, there's a crease -  slight on front, more on back - to the corner at top of spine. 
Record - side one has a long surface mark, like a broad fingernail mark, across tracks 5 and 6. Some paper scuffs.  Side two - has another long surface mark, on the last two tracks. Various scuffs and other surface marks.
Volume 5 - 
Cover - not glossy like the first three, but very good surface and general condition- little creases on the front at the corners, and one tiny nick to the surface, on the front.
Record - both sides of this look in excellent condition. 
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 lockdown, 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.  HOWEVER, if you win several items, and pay for them all in the same payment, their system may well spot this and do combined postage. If this happens, pay what you're told, and I will refund the excess postage paid to me - if you buy three LPs, I would be getting three lots of £3.70, but I can send all in one parcel, so I only need one lot of £3.70, usually. The exception is, if the items you buy weigh more than 2 kilos altogether, I need to make two parcels - there is a special cheap postage rate in UK, for parcels under 2 kilos. 
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!) Australia Austria Belgium Bulgaria Canada Croatia Cyprus Czech Republic Denmark Finland France Germany Greece Hungary Ireland Israel Italy Japan Lithuania Luxembourg Malta Netherlands New Zealand Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Mexico, Singapore, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan, Thailand Turkey Norway Poland Portugal Romania Russia Slovakia Slovenia Spain Sweden, United States, Antigua & Barbuda Aruba Bangladesh Barbados Belize Bermuda Bolivia Brunei Darussalam Cambodia Cayman Islands Dominica Ecuador Egypt French Guiana Gibraltar Grenada Guadeloupe Guernsey Iceland Jersey Jordan Liechtenstein Macau Maldives Martinique Monaco Montserrat Nicaragua Oman Pakistan Paraguay Peru Reunion Saint Kitts & Nevis Saint Lucia Sri Lanka and Turks & Caicos Islands Applicable customs charges will probably be shown to buyers in non-EU countries - 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.
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.
