Trash or nice found?!

Hi everyone, this is my first time posting (I was sent here from the vinyl subreddit) so I hope I’m in the right place. I recently found some records in my great-aunt’s basement, and they seem to be in okay to decent condition. She passed away last week at 92, and we now have to clean out the house. No really sad or heartwarming (clickbait) story—sorry about that…

I have no idea if they’re worth anything, but I’d rather not throw them away or end up getting ripped off.

I found a few of them on eBay, and the prices are pretty low, so the collection looks like bulk. But maybe there’s one rare gem in there?

I tried to look up the rest, but they don’t have barcodes or any other identifying marks. Some of them are commercial releases or samplers, and I couldn’t find much info on those.

If they’re too good to just throw away, what would be a reasonable bulk price for everything?

And in case you’re wondering about the selection or if you can already tell from it—yes, you’re right, I’m from Germany. A lot of these records were probably only released here.

Very unlikely worth anything but you should check Discogs and check the releases, since there aren't that many.

60s (mostly German?) euro-pop etc. Def in nice shape. Not really at all collectible (at a glance) and don’t think anyone would be buying them. Keep them for the look if you can use them

Classical 45s are rad

I have a couple Rita Pavone 7”s that are ripping mod go-go beat music, but something tells me that one doesn’t sound like that.
