Hi there,
Quite new to this posting lark, but I've got a question and wasn't quite sure where to put it.....has anyone heard of music magpie? Is it any good? Is it genuine?
Any replies would be welcome.
Thanks

Yes, I have used them a couple of times and they are great. The only problem I had was when I lost the postage label they sent me & ended up using an old one which caused a few problems as this is what they use to identify each person & order. Other than that, no problems. I sold CDs, DS games & Wii games.

i sorted out some cd's i wanted to sell and they were offering me like 20p and 30p each for them, so i suppose it depends what you're selling,,,

Yeh it does depend on what you are selling. You often don't get a great price but we had loads of old CDs etc to sell so we have proably got about £200 from them in total and at least it was guaranteed, free postage & saved us the hassle of trying to sell it at a car boot sale at 7 am on a Sunday morning!

I agree - i sold some DVDs when i was having a clearout. I could probably have got a bit more for some if i'd taken them to a car boot - but it wasn't as convenient at the time.
They do exactly what they say on the website, so it's all very easy.

thanks everyone, wasn't to sure about it. But if others have used it and it works I'll give it a go. Thanks again.

I've used them three times, after I read about them on the mse weekly bulletin
You won't make mega-bucks but it is a quick, convenient way of decluttering. Make sure you have packaging materials for sending off the items -I reused padded bags.
It takes about two weeks for your cheque to arrive.

I'd send your CDs off by recorded post, I forgot to do this and never heard anything back from them, by the time I remembered I'd lost the COP from the PO.
I'm not too bothered though as I only sent 3 CDs of little value as a trial

If you have large quantities they can send you a pre-paid box to pack them in and they have DHL collect. From the research I've done they pay very little, like 30p per CD, so unless you're in a tearing hurry or bone-idle I reckon there must be better ways to turn your old unwanted guff into cash.

I recently used MM for the first time, more than happy with the prices I got, took a little under two weeks for cheque to arrive. Will definitely use again soon.
