Finally acquired a complete set of the Chronological Bing Crosby, after several years of picking up individual volumes piece by piece. And now have duplicates of 30 of them: 1-10; 12-21; 32-39; 50 + 51
£8 was the original selling price per volume I am told (which seems to work out to 10.82 USD.) So that's what I'll ask.
If anyone would like to buy all 30 volumes, I'd throw in burned copies of the other 21 volumes (11, 22-31, 40-49). They would be CD-rs in plain white envelopes, but at least the buyer would have the music. *Will allow a few days to see if anyone would like to take up that offer before selling individually or breaking into smaller lots.*
NB - Please know that shipping from Canada is expensive. Price to ship the lot to USA would be equivalent to $85.36 USD with insurance. And to ship by airmail would be equivalent to £142.50 GBP shipping with insurance. A British buyer might prefer sea mail.

Did your offer get taken up?

No... However I am now in South America.
And the discs are now all in storage in canada, thousands of miles away.
Would estimate 6-12 months before they are in hand again.
Should I contact you at that point, in case you haven't acquired a set of Chronological Crosbys by then?

Late reply! I’d still be interested in your duplicate copies.

Apologies, immigration process taking longer than expected. Will probably be another year before reuniting with my music collection. Fingers crossed that shipping goods internationally will still be possible by then.
Hope you can find a set elsewhere! If not, we can check in in early 2026.

Good to hear from you. Apologies for my late reply. I’m not in any rush, so let me know if and when you can help. It would be nice to have the CDs.
