A whole load of DVDs to sell, best way??

Options
I have over 200 DVDs (and a few CDs) to sell, I went through the whole process of putting them all on Music Magpie, arranged a date to collect, waited in ALL day and they never turned up! I have tried to call them over the past week but I can NEVER get through. I emailed them but have heard nothing. I'm really annoyed at them for wasting my time.
Is there anywhere else similar that I can sell them to? I have sold the box sets etc on ebay but don't fancy listing them all :/

    If you have a CEX store near you you could trade them in there. You can check their site for prices.

    hi, music magpie have done you a favour not turning up. they are rip off merchants.

    if you either have the time to put them on ebay seperately, do it as you will get anything upwards of double for them.

    are you familiar with how to check how much things are actually selling for on ebay?

    Did think about selling batches of DVDs/CDs (same genre etc)
    I usually just search for the item I am planning to sell and see what they are going for - is there an easier way?

    Yeah you could try this. Blockbuster can buy them off you then you can take cash or store credit for them

    You can go into the advanced search (located next to the search box) and click on Completed listings then re-search. This brings up sold items.
  • Blockbuster have been sending out cards where you get 50p extra per DVD (even the crap ones) so thats £100 store credit sorted plus what they actually offer you.

    I would if possible keep the store credit and use towards presents or if you need to turn it into cash buy some electricals and flog on ebay.
