I have "inherited" approx. 600 7" 45 RPMs


I am presently cataloguing each single by artist, label, year, etc...
All are in very good condition and better. Some light marks/scratches on surface of some. They were all stored in closed top cases and most have the label sleeve or picture sleeve. Are these worth trying to sell here on Audiogon? (I have been a member for years.) Not sure if this is the right place to pursue this. Any suggestions other than the obvious eBay choice?

Thanks for the response. I have more than 600. I am willing to split and sell individually, but I see this could be a project. The records are not from a Jukebox or anything. They are from my Uncle's collection when he was younger..perhaps he played them a few times each. They don't take up much space as most are in about 8 or 9 45 RPM storage boxes, which are about 8"x8"x 5"each. If they are not scratched and clean, I suspect they will be somewhat desirable for an owner of an old Jukebox...LOL
Thanks for the responses.
Okay. I have gotten through about 1/4 of the 45s. They vary in titles and range from the 60s to the early 80s. Here is a list of some of the more interesting (subjective?)artists:
Frank Sinatra
Paul McCartney
Paul and Linda McCartney
Rolling Stones
John Lennon and Plastic Ono Band
Steve Miller
Creedance Clearwater Revival
Eagles
Aretha Franklin
Elton John
Helen Reddy
Abba
Steely Dan
Bee Gees
Foreigner
Aerosmith
Diana Ross
The Tempatations
Jackson Browne
John Denver
Wings
The Eagles
Peter Frampton
Tom Jones
Stevie Wonder
The Isley Brothers
Yes
Herb Alpert
10cc
The Jacksons
The Jackson 5

I will make the list available either as it goes or after it is all finished. As you can see, it is quite a rang. I have placed a dozen or so of various artists. All play through. Most sounded good. I use an older systemdec IIX with grado cartridge.
Excuse me for the misspellings (played instead of "placed" Systemdek instead of "systemdec", etc....trying to run out with my son for a game...
I have almost finished with a spread sheet listing title, artist, year, label, 45 #, and whether any have picture sleeves or were "punched" etc.
How should I make this information available for download or perusal? I am reluctant to post my email address for fear of junk mail, etc...

I thinking I could post it on one of my websites...or I could email the list to individuals when it is finished...if those individuals have accounts set up for this purpose...

I ran across some beatles, kiss, carly simon, james taylor...the list keeps growing. I have some of the oldies to do soon....
Good suggestions. I'll post more within a few days. 615 and counting. Looks like it will top out near 720. Not many oldies so far, unfortunately.
