Best place to see unwanted CDs and DVDs - similar to Music Magpie

Hi,

i have a few CDs and DVDs that I don't want.

Can anyone recommend any good sites such as Music Magpie that offer fixed payment for items?

Thanks!

    We tried Magpie after having a good clear out.

    Half of the cds were 'not recognised' and the other half were only 'worth' about 20p each.

    After weighing up the cost of postage and the rest of the faff we just donated the whole lot to a local charity shop.

    IMHO, unless they're very special, most places will offer pennies for dvds and cds, as they also sell them cheaply..

    Maybe save them for a car boot sale? You don't seem to get much for them these days unless they are quite current
    If you don’t like a thread or post just move on by.

    I found https://www.ziffit.com slightly better but haven't used them in ages. As above though, your mass produced CD that cost £9.99 a year ago will only ever be worth a few pence now.
