Music Magpie - how to send

Hi everyone,

This is probably a really stupid question but I'm confused!

Want to get rid of some old CDs - put in the bar codes etc - but I'm confused about how to actually send them in (the 'sell shop' is just the post office, so do I just take them as if taking any other package? What happens with postage costs etc)

Has anyone else used it?

Thanks (and sorry for such a daft question that probably has the answer staring at me on their website)!

Sarah

    Hi Sarah

    No question is daft. Or that's my take on life anyway.

    I used them a few years back, and I didn't have 25 items to send (if you do, they send a courier to your house to collect them). I went through the checkout and printed a label, and then chose a place to drop the parcel off to. It won't cost you any postage, just the packaging to put your items in, and the printing costs, I guess.

    As an aside, have a look at zapper as well, as I tend to use them now, as they seem to offer better prices for some items :)

    Thank you so much for your reply - I hadn't got as far as checkout because I didn't want to commit to anything before being sure how to actually send it!! Yeah - it is under 25 items

    Will have a look at zapper too :)

    Hi Alex - I hadn't actually heard of them - will check them out because I haven't actually got around to packing the cd's up! Thanks!
