getting rid of cd's

[Lefty 200 Drams]

Doing a bit of a house clearance at the moment and have come across boxes and boxes of cd's. Mostly from 90-05 or so.

I [I]Really[/] can't be arsed ebaying them individually and it seems a shame to throw away 500-odd cd's in decent nick. I don't know of any local 2nd hand music shops

What's the best way to flog them? A job lot on ebay?

TBH, fifty quid would do me fine.

Go to Richer Sounds, spend £500 on a budget amp, CD player and speakers and fall in love with the music all over again.

Give them to a charity shop

[Jayzee]

Care to list them if you can be bothered on here?

Some on here may be interested, myself included

You could make a massive Tesla turbine out of them.

I have a load to sort out and get rid of so just plucked an old cd from the box "Dance Zone Megamix Volume 1" and they want to give me £2.94 because it's scarce!! I know what I am going to be doing tonight lol! Cheers for that.

You going to create MP3s from them before you sell them ?

[cslgirl]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

yes!

[Lefty 200 Drams]

It's not my music!

Red Hot Chili Peppers
Massive Attack
Radiohead
Fun Lovin' Criminals

Lots of "best of" and compilations of soul/dance/classic rock stuff.

Will have a better look later on and give y'all an update. Will count them too. Maybe even take a photo of them spread out.

[Cock Womble 7]

I'll have them.

Music Magpie might have a few ones off you

[Lefty 200 Drams]

Right. There were a lot of empty cases and copied cd's in the first box but so far we have (genuine and in good condition. I've not listed singles of which there are many):

U2 - ALL THAT YOU CAN'T LEAVE BEHIND
CHEMICAL BROTHERS - EXIT PLANET DUST
ROBBIE WILLIAMS - I'VE BEEN EXPECTING YOU
WAMDUE PROJECT - PROGRAM YOURSELF
JAMES BLUNT - BACK TO BEDLAM
IDLEWILD - THE REMOTE PART
THE BEST OF CURTIS MAYFIELD
BILL WITHERS GREATEST HITS
DEPECHE MODE - THE SINGLES 86-93
THE BEST OF DAVID SOUL
BLUE - ALL RISE
CARON WHEELER - UK BLAK
THE SOUND OF FUNK VOL 1
QUEER AS FOLK SOUNDTRACK
JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE LIVE
THE VERY BEST OF KAJAGOOGOO
NO.1 HITS OF THE 80'S
911 - THERE IT IS
THE VERY BEST OF MARVIN GAYE
STEVIE WONDER - GREATEST HITS
CHARLIES ANGELS SOUNDTRACK
AIR - MOON SAFARI
WILL SMITH - BIG WILLIE STYLE
JAMIE CULLUM - TWENTY SOMETHING
PROPELLORHEADS - DECKSANDDRUMSANDROCKANDROLL
GRANDADDY - THE SOPHTWARE SLUMP
OCEAN COLOUR SCENE - MOSELY SHOALS

That's about 1/3 of the first box (there are two boxes, each the same size)

I don't want to start a bidding war on ph but i';ve already had 3 emails from people offering £50+postage. So, the answer to my original questions seems to be - ask on ph!!

Postage is gonna be expensive, it's a heavy package. Anybody local (NE Scotland) interested?

[Hugo a Gogo]

'the very best of kajagoogoo' ?

and that's a full album, yeah?

[War Pig]

Queer as folk

[Lefty 200 Drams]

Final count is 210 (+/- 10). And two bin bags full of hookey discs and empty boxes.

To answer the question I've been asked a couple of times - we bought a flat which looked to have been left in a hurry Amongst all the rubbish was a huge cd tower!

Amd, yes, I've kept a couple of cd's for myself (or will at least burn em to my ipod before the box goes!)

Postage wise, it's down to one box now, approx 24" x 18" x 18" and it weighs about 24kg.

You don't get much, but then again I was shocked when I got £8 for a kids CD that my mum got for 50p in a closing down shop years ago
