Reluctantly I have decided it is time to de clutter and so apart from the Uk albums (which I am giving to my daughter)
I am selling off my Queen Vinyl collection, it consists of some fantastic picture discs and 12" singles These are real collectors discs in great condition they are not run of the mill discs I am starting them at the minnimum they are worth
(see below for gradings)

Ok !!
So now we have a mega, mega mega mega rare fantastic looking Queen greatest hits 12 "picture disc made in West Germany Exclusively for the Bulgarian market and this is the real deal, this is the uno numoro of Queen pictures discs Ever!! whats more I am not going to set a ridiculus buy it now or high reserve because it will find its true value. it is already on E bay right now for a starting price of £650 and a buy it now for £1800 (ends 2nd April) mine has £1 starting price and a £100 reserve. so it sells anything from that. it is immaculate and deserves the nm grading I allocate it.
This is the way to be sure you are getting an original and not the copy and I know because I own and am selling both !!
In the original you can see part of Brain Mays left hand
You can see John Deacons full face and right ear and behind his head you can see part of the word Marshal on the far left amp along the top face (not the lower Marshall ) none of the above can be seen on the copy disc.
(The above is the quickest way to check when viewing on E Bay)
Also when you recieve the disc check the matrix under a strong light, the matrix is (numbers/letters/words) etched into the grooves of the centre of the disc (usually) as in this case, the matrix for this original must start BTA-11253
(This is also printed on the B side of the disc in white at the top do not assume this means it is an original as this is also on the copy)
There are other ways to check but for these you really need both discs for comparison.
This disc I have graded as: Cover: -- Vinyl: Nm
MY GRADES BASED ON GOLDMINE
AS A MATTER OF COURSE I NEVER GRADE ANYTHING AS MINT, I ONLY COLLECTED THE HIGHEST STANDARD I COULD GET AND AM VERY STRICT WITH GRADING A LOT OF MY "NM" ITEMS COULD EASILY BE CONSIDERED AS "MINT"
prefix: a scuff looks like a small scratch but doesn't affect play
MINT (M) As new no sign of any flaw to vinyl or sleeve
NEAR MINT (NM) As new" maybe some extremely light creases on sleeve but no other wear, vinyl no scratches at all but maybe a light scuff or two
EXCELLENT (EX) Cover will have some faint creasing and faint ring wear but overall it must still look in great condition.Vinyl would have some scuffing but no more than approx 20% of surface and should make little or no difference to the playing of the record
VERY GOOD + (VG+) Covers will have ring wear and creasing and maybe a small edge tear or rip maybe small writing/or a label , Vinyl has up to 30% scuffing and one or two scratches however they should only affect one or two tracks
VERY GOOD (VG) Cover looks fairly worn with creasing & one or two tears or rips ring wear and maybe even have some writing and or yellowing but it still looks bright and clean Vinyl has up to 40% scuffing and maybe a few scratches which affects one or two tracks but still looks fairly good
GOOD G) Cover is well worn with a lot of creasing and quite a lot of rips and tears, ring wear is also clear, artwork is is no longer clean and bright. Vinyl has started to lose its brightness and has scuffs and scratches which affect its play but is still able to mostly be heard and enjoyed overall this grade is for well used vinyl
FAIR/POOR (FP) Lots of damage to both cover and vinyl cover looks bad and vinyl is virtually unplayable
INDIVIDUAL DISCS WILL BE £4 POST AND PACKING AND WILL BE SENT PACKED SECURELY BY ROYAL MAIL RECORDED SIGNED FOR 1st CLASS OR YOU CAN PAY FOR SPECIAL NEXT DAY DELIVERY WHICH WOULD BE £6 THESE ARE THE ONLY WAYS I WILL POST DISCS
OF COURSE I WILL SEND THE CHEAPEST SECURE WAY POSSIBLE FOR MULTIPLE ITEMS
