I'll combine shipping if you buy more than one 12" Buy-It-Now record but you must (1) select "Add to Cart" for each record, and then (2) select "Request Total." I'll then send a combined invoice for you to pay. My auctions are listed as "no international shipping" because of the excessive cost and delays these days. However, if you really want something and are willing to put up with both the cost and likely delay, please feel free to bid. Goldmine Record Grading Standards: Mint: Absolutely perfect in every way.
