Hi, I'll take them sight unseen for the postage to get them here. Smile In answer to the question are they worth anything.... hard to tell. In great shape some are. Most unfortunately are badly worn or scratched and not of value. I recently saw some guidelines on condition vs value. They were scored from 10 down to 1. 10 was a new disk, 9 would be suitable for any but the most discriminating listener, 8 had some very minor issues, 7 had a few issues (one-two clicks perhaps some groove noise) but was generally fine, 6 and below were not recommended for any reason. Most desirable disks that were 7 or above were going for $5-10. This is from a retailer. So I am quite sure they didn't give more than about 25% of that to get them. The key is desirable and really good condition.

You may be able to find a local used record / book shop to help you determine if any are valuable.

If you run out of options and still want to get rid of the them PM me. I like nearly all types of music.





Good Listening
Bruce
