Selling LP Vinyl Records

I have just come across a box of vinyls which I had forgotten about. I have checked out a few prices on Ebay sold listings. On average they are selling for about £5 +pp. My dilemma is how to post them? Has anyone got any suggestions please? Which mailers would be best to buy?
Also what to look out in the LPs themselves? I can't play them to try them out. Sleeves are all there. Any guidance would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Sounds Wholesale on Ebay tend to be the best value for 12" mailers. They would need extra protection. You can but cardboard sheets to go in the envelopes but I just wrap my records in bubble wrap before putting them in the mailer.
Visually check all the vinyl and be honest (and if anything, over conservative) when stating the condition. State that the condition is based on visual condition only. Most sellers use the Record Collector grading system, link below.
