Vinyl

So, when my parents came down to visit they brought the last of my stuff that's lurking in their house, my vinyl.

I've spent the afternoon going through it, looking at the prices on musicstack.com, and there are probably about twenty 7"'s worth about a fiver, and about 20 12"'s worth over a fiver, depending on condition. There are a handful of things in there worth £20 or more.

(I have a complete run of Queen LPs, although my copies of Queen and Queen II are the Fame editions. It's surprising how much the value of them varies, and it's by no means a straight correlation with age.)

I'm not sure that I can be bothered to sell them myself, though, even before you get onto the 'how the hell do you ship a 12"' issue (I have vague memories of pizza boxes being good). Does anyone have any suggestions for somewhere that would just take the lot and give me a fair-price-with-a-stated-cut for them?

(The box also, Mother mentioned in passing, contains an envelope with my school reports in it. That may be entertaining, when I get around to it....)
