Great selection of 28 singles many in original picture sleeves. The A sides play from VG/VG+ to VG+ and all sleeves are VG to VG+. Many of the sleeves are split at bottom of cover and some also on another side. These are from a DJs collection and the A sides are all in great shape - the B sides could all do with a clean as they generally play at a lower grade than A side and this is probably due to not being played or cleaned for decades. Some of the sleeves have a reference number written inside opening flap but all covers are clean of writing on front and rear and all labels are also clean of stickers or writing.

I have played both sides and assessed visually to grade in accordance with the Goldmine gradings as set out in the table below:  Ref Band - Record title Sleeve Grading Side A / Side B Sleeve grading C1 Billy Joel - Uptown Girl PS VG+ / VG  VG+ C2 Bowie Jagger - Dancing In The Streets PS VG+ / VG  VG C3 ELO - All Over the World PS VG+ / VG  VG C4 Europe - Final Countdown PS VG+ x 2 VG C5 Foreigner - Waitiing For  A Girl Like You  PS VG+ / VG  VG+ C6 Foreigner - I Want To Know What Love Is PS VG+ / VG  VG C7 Gary Moore / Phil Lynott - Out In The Fields PS VG+ / VG  VG C8 Jethro Tull - Ep PS VG/VG+ / VG VG+ C9 Jethro Tull - The Whistler Company VG / VG VG+ C10 Joan Jett & The Blackhearts - I Love Rock N Roll PS VG+/VG x 2 VG+ C11 Kiss - Crazy Crazy Nights PS VG+/VG x 2 VG+ C12 Marillion - Kayleigh PS VG+ / VG  VG C13 Meatloaf - I'll Do Anything For Love (But I Won't Do That) PS VG+ / VG  VG+ C14 Men At Work - Down Under  PS VG+ / VG VG C15 Phil Lynott -Yellow Pearl Company VG+ / VG  VG+ C16 Pretenders - Brass in Pocket Plain VG+ / VG x 2 C17 Rainbow - All Night Long Plain VG+ / VG  C18 Rainbow - I Surrender Plain VG+ / VG  C19 Rainbow - Since You Been Gone Plain VG+ / VG x 2 C20 Robert Palmer - Addicted to Love PS VG+/VG x 2 VG C21 Scopions - Wind Of Change PS VG+/VG x 2 VG+ C22 Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now PS VG+/VG x 2 VG+ C23 Starship - We Built This City PS VG+ / VG / VG VG+ C24 Status Quo - Rock N' Roll PS VG+ / VG  VG+ C25 Stealers Wheel - Stuck In The Middle Plain VG/VG+  x 2 C26 Survivor - Eye Of the Tiger PS VG+/VG x 2 VG+ C27 Toto - Africa PS VG+/VG x 2 VG C28 Whitesnake - Give Me All Your Love PS VG+/VG x 2 VG
The records will be sent well packaged and out of their sleeves to protect the sleeves in transit.
I am selling other collections of 7" records along with many other music items and books. 
I am happy to combine postage on more than one purchase. If you would like to take advantage of this, please request an amended invoice before paying otherwise Ebay charges me fees on the listed postage costs which means I can't pass on the saving to you. 

Grading Info: 

Mint (M) - Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed. Should be used sparingly as a grade, if at all.  

Near Mint (NM or M-) - A nearly perfect record. A NM- record has more than likely never been played, and the vinyl will play perfectly, with no imperfections during playback. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly) that no record is ever truly perfect. The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as any sign of slight handling. An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits, cut-out holes, or other noticeable similar defects. The same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves, etc.   

Very Good Plus (VG+) - A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it. Defects should be more of a cosmetic nature, not affecting the actual playback as a whole. Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK". Low surface noise may be evident upon playing at start or between tracks, but will not impact on the music. The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. Spindle marks may be present. Picture sleeves and inner sleeves will have some slight wear, slightly turned-up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear, and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation, or cut corner. In general, if not for a couple of minor things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. 

Very Good (VG) - Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, (such as occasional cyclical pops and audible crackle/hiss), especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound. Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time. Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as the lowest price. 

Good (G), Good Plus (G+) - A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be played through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise, scratches, and visible groove wear. A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear, or other defects will be present. While the record will be playable without skipping, noticeable surface noise and "ticks" will almost certainly accompany the playback.   

Poor (P), Fair (F) - The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully split, crinkled, and written upon.
