Jazz and/or LP afficionados? I have a "Giants of Jazz" set for sale

[brewso.livejournal.com]

I have in my possession multiple Time Life "Giants of Jazz" LP boxed sets. I have 24 of the possible 28 that were issued in 1979. Each box features an artist (and, in a few cases, multiple artists such as "The Guitarists"). Each boxed set contains 3 LPs and a book about the artist. The boxes have very slight age wear and fading, but the set is in overall great condition. I am looking for offers. I do know a ballpark of what these are worth, so please be fair in your offers.

Thanks!

Craigslist? eBay?

Thanks, I did list them on craigslist, too. Judging from the buzz that always surrounds LPs at local yard sales, I figured there might be some immediate local interest. I don't want to do eBay as the lot is large and very heavy.

Can you propose a price, and let people make offers from that? "Make an offer but match the offer I already have in my head" isn't really much to go on.

Well, I'm honestly willing to sell for less than they're worth because I need money right now. I'm open to offers - I just didn't want people to offer something ridiculous like $1 per box set. The full set recently ended on eBay for ~$200 with shipping, if that helps narrow it down.
