  • THis thread is getting very trollie and bitter. More the type of thing you'll find on youtube.
    OK its illegal , but the thread is about selling CDs and DVDs not the morality of copying music recorded by multi billion £ companies.
    So why resurrect it after months and quote someone who posted on 24-05-2010

    I used magpie after seeing their ad and i sent a bundle of games and dvd's and after a week of hearing nothing i gave them a ring and was told there is a dispute about a game they said it was damaged but in fact it was an unwanted gift and unopened so they do give out a load of spill to lower their quoted price and i do feel they are dishonest and liars,There are better places online and on the high street where you will get a better price and not get lied to

    You could have took the unopened game to cex or game, gamestation, asda or sold on ebay.

    Chances are it wasn't packed properly and was damaged in transit.

    Interesting.
    I recently sent off two boxes of games,dvds and blurays which they quoted me £100 for. So I'm now waiting for their response/cheque.

    It is a shame to sell blu rays for 40p and some games for a £1 but in all honesty, what else is there? I could do a boot sale or put them on ebay, but with ebay fee's etc it wouldn't be worth it.
